Country fans can’t resist a good love story—Tim McGraw and Faith Hill set that bar high. So, when Riley Green and Ella Langley lit up the stage with their duet, it didn’t take long for romance rumors to start swirling. Riley admits he and Ella saw it coming.
“When the song started to blow up, I told her, ‘People are gonna talk,’” he shared. “‘We don’t need to play into it—or dodge it. Let’s just enjoy it the way we enjoy singing it.’”
And enjoy it they do. Riley lights up when talking about their performances together. “It’s a special moment we get to share on stage every night,” he said.
