Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes Spotted on Casual NYC Stroll Amid Friendly Terms

Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes reunited for a casual outing in New York City this week, maintaining their amicable connection following their recent breakup.

The pair were spotted strolling along the West Side Highway on Wednesday (April 29), according to witnesses who shared details with TMZ. The 32-year-old country artist and the 33-year-old Outer Banks star happened to be in the city simultaneously and decided to spend time together.

Insiders close to both parties clarified that while the former couple continues to maintain a cordial relationship, they are not rekindling their romance. Sources emphasized that Kelsea and Chase remain on speaking terms following their separation.

The two had previously been in an on-and-off relationship spanning three years before their initial breakup in September 2025. They briefly reconciled heading into the New Year before splitting once more in February. Following that second split, various sources offered explanations regarding the difficulties that ultimately derailed their reconciliation efforts.

Last month, the Netflix actor generated some social media attention when he posted a since-deleted Instagram comment that appeared directed at Kelsea's ex-husband, made on a video featuring him discussing an interview with radio personality Bobby Bones.
