Last month, Moroney cleared the air about her rumored romance with fellow country star Morgan Wallen, whom “Tennessee Orange” is rumored to be about. While on the Call Her Daddy podcast, host Alex Cooper directly asked her if she dated the “Last Night” singer. “Never exclusively,” Moroney replied. “I have tried to avoid that in every single interview I’ve ever done. But we’re here now and time has passed and all is well.”

She declined to confirm if “Tennessee Orange,” is about Volunteers fan Wallen as speculated, but she explained that she met the star right before the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 while she was a senior in college. “We were friends for a long time. We were not just friends. And now we’re friends,” she explained. “I feel like he’s a very private person. We weren’t exclusively dating ever and I think that both of our schedules… when we tried to hang out it was like, ‘OK, we have this one day of the whole month where we’re both maybe in town and then the other has something going on.’”
