Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes Reignite Romance During Croatian Getaway

It looks like love might be back on for Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes. Just two months after news broke of their split, the country singer and Outer Banks star were spotted holding hands and sharing a quiet dinner together in Dubrovnik, Croatia, on November 7, 2025.

According to PEOPLE, the pair looked happy and relaxed as they strolled the city’s cobblestone streets, which fueled rumors that their romance is back on.

The sighting comes after the couple’s September 2025 breakup, which ended their nearly three-year relationship. At the time, sources said they had “given it their all” but decided to part ways amicably. Now, with this unexpected reunion abroad, fans are wondering if Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes are giving things another shot.

Their love story began in January 2023, when the two were first linked after being spotted together at a football game. Ballerini later revealed she slid into Stokes’ DMs herself, simply writing, “Hi, Chase Stokes.” From there, the couple quickly became one of pop culture’s favorite pairings, making their red-carpet debut at the 2023 CMT Music Awards and sharing sweet glimpses of their relationship online.

Throughout 2024, their bond only seemed to grow stronger. From moving in together to attending award shows side by side, fans got more and more invested in their love story. Ballerini even credited Stokes for helping her find a calmer, more grounded kind of love after her divorce. “He’s steady, kind, and really human,” she told PEOPLE.

While neither Ballerini nor Stokes has commented on the rumored reconciliation, their Croatia outing suggests the spark between them might not be gone after all. Whether it’s a rekindled romance or simply two people reconnecting, fans are rooting for another happy ending for one of country music’s favorite couples.
