Kelsea Ballerini Is 'Protecting Her Peace'

Kelsea Ballerini said she was 'protecting her peace' following her split from Chase Stokes.
Ballerini started by addressing her excitement for her upcoming tour in Australia, before giving a rare update on her personal life.
“Thank you for saying this and asking. I’m in a steady and happy place right now, truly excited for this Australia tour and the holidays,” she replied. “If I had one favor, it would be honoring that I’m trying to make my personal life personal for now. Unless it comes from me, it’s not from me. And that is really important in protecting my peace right now.”
Ballerini and Stokes were first romantically linked in January 2023, with the Netflix star often accompanying the "Miss Me More" singer at her shows and on various red carpets. However, their relationship seemingly hit tension in recent months as the couple’s split was confirmed in September.
