Kelsea Ballerini and Morgan Evans ended their marriage three years ago, but the conversation around their split continues to follow the country singer — especially when fans shout comments during her performances.
Despite releasing music inspired by her 2022 divorce, Ballerini has made it clear that she has fully moved on and does not tolerate negativity directed at her former husband.
During her recent concert in Sydney, the i quit drinking hitmaker was performing her emotional track Penthouse when an audience member yelled out something disrespectful. The 32-year-old star immediately paused and sharply responded, “F— off,” before finishing the song without further interruption.
Singer Warns Fans After Onstage Incident
Following the show, Ballerini posted the video on social media and issued a firm reminder to fans. She wrote:
“Respectfully, if anyone yells anything disrespectful to anyone during this song again, it will no longer be on the setlist.”
She continued her message in Instagram Stories, urging fans to treat the song with the sensitivity it deserves:
“Please let this be a song that matters to people and not a place to insert yourself into a world that doesn’t exist and was never yours to begin with. Team everyone’s happy or bust. Please.”
Song Reflects Her Healing Journey
Ballerini released Penthouse in 2023 as part of her EP Rolling Up the Welcome Mat, which explores the emotional fallout and healing period following her divorce from Australian country singer Morgan Evans. Although the music touches on grief and personal transition, Ballerini has repeatedly emphasized that she holds no ill will and expects her fans to respect that.
