From steamy duets to suspicious social media activity and even icy red carpet stares, Riley Green fans are playing detective, and every lyric, like, and look is under the microscope.

Green and Langley first raised eyebrows in 2023 with their sultry collaborations "You Look Like You Love Me" and "Don't Mind If I Do."

Their on-stage chemistry fueled whispers of a budding romance, which intensified after a backstage moment at The American Rodeo in Arlington, Texas, went viral.

In the clip, Green is seen finishing his set and heading backstage. As he moves behind the scenes, he appears to lean in toward someone obscured by stage equipment, making it unclear whether it was a hug or a kiss. Moments later, Langley emerges from that very spot, and the two are seen exiting the stage area together.

Langley quickly shut the rumors down in an interview with Taste of Country, insisting, “We’re not dating. We’re just good friends.”

Despite her denial, Green didn’t exactly squash the rumors either.

On "The Viall Files" podcast, hosted by "Bachelor" alum Nick Viall, he playfully deflected, saying, “Ella's probably too smart to date me anyway.” He added that the pair had braced for the inevitable fan speculation once their duet took off.

But things got even messier when fans noticed Langley unfollowed Moroney on Instagram around the same time that rumors started swirling about Moroney and Green being more than friends. The timing? Suspiciously close to when Moroney and Green were spotted vacationing in St. Barts together.

Moroney quickly tried to cool the chatter, telling Rolling Stone she had simply bumped into Green while he was on a trip with friends. She even teased fans for doing “FBI research” into her love life, but many weren’t buying it.

The skepticism is rooted in déjà vu. Moroney had once denied dating country superstar Morgan Wallen, only to later admit they had, in fact, been romantically involved.

Eagle-eyed followers pointed out that Moroney had been sharing cryptic Instagram stories, including lyrics from her song "I’m Not Pretty." One line in particular, “I bet one of his friends let my name slip again," had fans convinced she was throwing subtle shade.

By the time all three singers showed up at the 2025 ACM Awards, the tension was palpable. Moroney was spotted giving major side-eye during Green and Langley’s joint acceptance speech, sending fans into a frenzy online.

And the drama didn't end there.
