Introduction
Country music sensation Riley Green is a master at delivering heartfelt lyrics about romance, but when it comes to his own love life, the “Change My Mind” crooner is famously tight-lipped. This radio silence, however, has only fueled his dedicated fanbase, who have taken it upon themselves to piece together the puzzle of his relationships. And they’ve certainly been busy.

Over the past year, a fascinating (and potentially purely speculative) country music love triangle has emerged, placing Riley Green at the center with fellow artists Ella Langley and Megan Moroney. Despite repeated denials from all three parties, insisting they are merely good friends, the online detective work of fans has remained relentless, convinced there’s more to the story.
Let’s dive into what we currently know about Riley Green’s elusive relationship status…
Is Riley Green Dating Megan Moroney? The St. Barts Speculation Continues
The initial sparks of a potential romance between Riley Green and “Tennessee Orange” singer Megan Moroney ignited in February 2025. Sharp-eyed fans noticed a curious coincidence: both artists independently shared Instagram stories from the same vacation spot – the picturesque island of St. Barts. This immediately led to a flurry of speculation that they were vacationing together.
However, Megan Moroney addressed these rumors in a March 2025 interview with Rolling Stone, chalking up the shared location to pure happenstance. She emphasized that “hanging out doesn’t mean we’re romantically dating,” while also acknowledging the “FBI research” efforts of her fanbase.
The “Am I Okay?” vocalist is no stranger to such romantic conjectures, having been linked to Morgan Wallen in the past due to lyrical interpretations. Yet, Megan herself recently added fuel to the Riley fire. Her comment on a fan’s TikTok, featuring a t-shirt emblazoned with Riley Green and the words “Hoochie Daddy” (“Need the shirt.”), sent fans into a frenzy. Many interpreted this as a playful, yet telling, hint of a blossoming relationship.
Adding to the intrigue, Megan and Riley were recently seen attending a private gathering with Megan’s friends and have reportedly been spotted together in Riley’s hometown. Despite these sightings, both artists have yet to make any official statements regarding a romantic connection, leaving the door open for the “just friends” possibility.
Was There Something Between Riley Green and Ella Langley? Revisiting the Duet Dynamics
While current attention leans towards Megan Moroney, many fans firmly believe that Riley Green and Ella Langley shared a romantic connection in the not-so-distant past.

These persistent rumors largely stem from the undeniable chemistry displayed in their popular duets, “you look like you love me” and “Don’t Mind If I Do,” which also led to Ella supporting Riley on tour earlier this year. In a December 2024 appearance on Nick Viall and Natalie Joy’s Viall Files podcast, Riley definitively stated their relationship was “strictly friends.” Ella has echoed this sentiment, telling Taste of Country, “We’re not dating, we’re just good friends.”
Despite these denials, a segment of the fanbase remains convinced that a romantic spark once existed, perhaps now extinguished. Some even linked Riley Green’s decision to shave his signature mustache in May 2025 to a potential breakup with Ella. This theory emerged from Ella’s prior claim that she influenced his mustache, asking him to keep it for their “you look like you love me” music video. For some, the mustache’s disappearance signaled Riley moving on from the “weren’t for the wind” singer – possibly to Megan.
While some fans observed a perceived dip in chemistry during their recent performance at Morgan Wallen’s inaugural Sand In My Boots festival, we’d respectfully disagree! Regardless, Riley and Ella are scheduled for more joint appearances this summer, suggesting that any personal speculation hasn’t impacted their professional camaraderie.
