Kelsea Ballerini is not letting any rumors spiral out of control.

When the “Miss Me More” singer, 31, postponed a few of her upcoming tour dates, speculation began to rise about whether she was expecting. On Friday, Feb 7, Ballerini posted a TikTok video directly responding to the claims.

In the video, which had the comment “Maybe pregnant?!” stitched to the top, Ballerini was noticeably congested and wearing eye patches. She placed her phone down before backing away from the camera and hanging her head in disappointment.

“Or, maybe its the flu,” she said before sniffling and adding, “Yeah. Cool.”

The “Cowboys Cry Too” singer recently rescheduled three concert dates due to sickness. On Thursday, Feb. 6, the singer, who’s currently on her Kelsea Ballerini Live Tour shared on her Instagram Stories that her Buffalo show earlier that night had to be cut short due to health issues.

“Buffalo, I am so so sorry that I could not finish the show tonight,” she said of her concert at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, NY. “I am sicker than I am trying to be and I did not want to let anyone down tonight.”

“I just got through the first few songs and I couldn’t do it. I’m so sorry but I never want to give you a half a– show,” she added. “I will put out every stop for you and I will make it so worth it,” she said, “I’m gonna’ go rest now and get better so I can really show up for the rest of this tour.”

Ballerini and boyfriend Chase Stokes are still going strong after sparking dating rumors back in January 2023. The country star and the Outer Banks actor celebrated their two-year anniversary on Jan. 7, and Ballerini took to Instagram with some never-before-seen photos of the pair and a sweet note about their enduring romance.

The post featured photos of the pair spending time together on the beach, at home, traveling and with their dogs, Dibs and Milo. She also shared a hilarious video of Stokes cleaning up dog poop while Dibs leaves another dropping behind him, leading the Netflix star to claim he’s in “purgatory.”

“Two years of catching each other in countless cities, perfecting a chimichurri steak, and creating a world that revolves around dogs,” Ballerini wrote in the Instagram caption. “Love you so, teammate.”
