Kelsea Ballerini Hosts Thanksgiving With Boyfriend Chase Stokes And Special Guest Kenny Chesney

Kelsea Ballerini played host to a group of loved ones and one additional country music superstar at her Nashville home this Thanksgiving. Ballerini was joined by her boyfriend, Outer Banks star Chase Stokes, her mom, and a group of friends including Alysa Vanderheym, who worked with the country singer on her new album, Patterns. The festive holiday crew was rounded out by special guest Kenny Chesney, who took part in the meal and presumably the special round of Thanksgiving karaoke that took place afterwards. Ballerini joined Chesney on his I Go Back Tour last year, and repaid the favor by welcoming him into her home during the holiday season. It was Ballerini’s first attempt at making a Thanksgiving turkey, and in an Instagram photo carousel capturing the holiday festivities, she graded her bird: “turkey: 5/10 thanksgiving karaoke: 1000/10 grateful for so so much, mostly the love that we get and we give away. 🤍” (People)
