Just last month, Kelsea gushed about how much she appreciates Chase' pride in their relationship.
The singer reminisced about how the actor made their romance Instagram official back in January 2023 — before they had even discussed whether they were 'together.'
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight during a game of Sip or Spill, she said, 'I think it is very underrated for a man to be really proud of his relationship.'
She added, '[He posted that photo] before we even had the conversation of like, "Are we together?" Even as a very independently wired woman, I love when he’s like, "This is us. Here we are." He full-sent that.'
The photo, shared on January 13, 2023, was captioned 'Lil recap' and featured the couple cuddled up at a football game, with Kelsea tagged in the post, though their faces were not visible.

Chase recently praised Kelsea as a 'great person,' stating on Today, 'I truthfully think when you find somebody who's not just somebody you love and adore, but is also your best friend, you've kind of got the best of both worlds.
'And she's not just a great person, but everything that you see—whether it be on social media or when she's on stage—is exactly the person she is when she's not doing those things.'
