- Chase Stokes wrote, then deleted, an Instagram comment calling Morgan Evans “the most pathetic excuse of masculinity” under a clip of Evans’ BobbyCast interview.
- Bobby Bones shared a screenshot of the deleted remark and defended Evans, saying the interview reasonably addressed personal history that informed the record.
- Evans replied with a tongue‑in‑cheek Instagram carousel captioned “Feeling pretty masculine today,” showcasing staged “masculine” tasks and noting his album is two weeks away.
- In the podcast conversation, Evans said he was not expecting Kelsea Ballerini’s 2022 divorce request and described that period as a blur that shaped parts of his new music.
- Coverage reviewed reports no further comment from Ballerini on this exchange, while Stokes has not addressed his deleted post.
