Kelsea Ballerini seemingly reacted to the drama between her exes Chase Stokes and Morgan Evans.
Taking to social media on Friday, March 6, the country singer, 32, shared cryptic posts via her Instagram and TikTok accounts.
Over on Instagram, Ballerini shared an image that read, “And for the lady, perhaps a f**king break?” She used Lenny Kravitz’s song “It Ain’t Over ‘Til It’s Over” to accompany the post.
Ballerini also posted on TikTok several hours later. In a video montage, Ballerini appears to be living her best life and dances around enthusiastically in some parts of the clip and poses in front of what appears to be a private jet in another.
Tellingly, the singer used Lady Gaga’s hit track “Telephone” as the accompanying music. The lyrics read, “Sorry, I cannot hear you, I’m kinda busy.”
Ballerini’s cryptic social media posts were posted the same week Stokes, 33, and Evans, 40, took aim at one another via Instagram.
After Evans made rare remarks about his 2022 divorce from Ballerini on the Tuesday, March 3, episode of “The BobbyCast” podcast, Stokes slammed Evans’ “masculinity.”
“This is about the most pathetic excuse of masculinity I’ve ever seen,” Stokes commented on an Instagram post shared by Bobby Bones, who was promoting his podcast interview with Evans.
Stokes, who has been dating Ballerini on and off since 2023, added, “Get a f***ing life.”

In the podcast interview, Evans claimed that the split from Ballerini took him “by surprise” and added that he was “not expecting” a divorce.
“That whole time is such a blur. It almost feels like somebody else, just from where I’m sitting now. I just look back and I’m like, ‘Oh, my God,’” Evans, who was married to Ballerini for nearly five years, said. “Yeah, it was just kind of a whirlwind, life-changing moment.
Bones, 45, screenshotted Stokes’ since-deleted comment and responded with an Instagram video of his own.
“If you’re going to come that hard, maybe you don’t want to take that [comment] down,” Bones said, noting that only a small part of their interview was about the divorce.
“I thought he came off really well. I thought he was very kind in his version of events. There’s three stories, right? There’s his story, her story and the real story,” Bones said. “This masculinity thing was just weird. Why would you challenge someone’s masculinity?”
Evans responded to Stokes’ sledge by posting a not-so-subtle jab at the Outer Banks actor via an Instagram post shared on Thursday, March 5.
“Feeling pretty masculine today,” Evans captioned the post. “Album out in 2 weeks!”
The social media post featured several photos of Evans engaging in stereotypically “masculine” activities, such as lifting a refrigerator over his head and looking underneath the hood of a car. In a separate video, Evans could be seen chopping a piece of wood.
Bones, who was inadvertently caught up in the drama thanks to his podcast, saw the funny side, commenting, “I laughed.”
