A pair of Instagram Stories may have just confirmed country music's newest couple.
Maren Morris and Cassadee Pope have sparked dating buzz after sharing affectionate photos (including one showing the two kissing) with their followers.
The speculation began when Morris shared an Instagram carousel on Tuesday, July 7, which featured a photo getting close with Pope. Pope later reposted the image to her Instagram Stories, joking, "Trying to get bb to move here, everyone help."
If that wasn't enough to convince fans, Pope, 36, followed it up with another Story showing the pair kissing, alongside the playful caption, "she won’t go out with you because she’s out with me, silly."
It’s safe to say fans were sent into a frenzy online.

Another said, “So here for this!!,” while a third replied, “I’m going to collapse.”
Longtime fans will know that the singers have known each other for years. They were photographed together in 2019 at the 54th Academy of Country Music Awards Cumulus, and Pope later joined Morris as an opening act on her Girl: The World Tour. They also publicly stood together in 2022 during a widely discussed social media dispute with Brittany Aldean over comments about the transgender community.

The apparent relationship comes after a period of major personal change for Morris. Following her divorce from fellow country singer Ryan Hurd, she came out as bisexual in 2024 with a Pride Month post that read, "Happy to be the B in LGBTQ+." has since been deleted.
And professionally, Morris is also preparing for a new chapter. During a July 3 appearance on Today, the 36-year-old revealed she'll be stepping away from touring after wrapping up her current dreamGirl Tour. "This is sort of my last tour for a bit, because I want to be able to free-think more and be in the studio more, and just figure out what I want to say next," she explained.
Her plans include spending more time with her 6-year-old son, Hayes, as he starts kindergarten, while exploring new creative opportunities—including her longtime dream of writing for Broadway.
