Speaking about the three legs of her HEARTFIRST Tour, Kelsea added: "’l'll never be able to put into words the journey this tour has bookmarked for me personally, but for those that were a part of it…thank you. For the glitter, hugs, tears, homemade shirts and signs, best friend scream sings, for all of it. Although it’s the end of such a beautiful chapter, we’re just getting started."

Fans were quick to comment on how she was "healing", which alluded to her divorce and moving on. But aside from that, fans were quick to spot her new ink.

"Does anyone notice her new tattoo on her arm? It's so beautiful," penned one in the comments of her Instagram post.

"Omggg is it mountains? From MVAV?" asked another.

Sharing a snap of Kelsea on Twitter, that saw her rock a line tattoo of a mountain scene, one fan account penned: "SPOTTED [side eye emoji] Kelsea got a new tat and it’s giving Mountain With A View vibes."

"Stoppp I’m obsessed," penned one fan, while another added: "OBSESSED."

In the song, Mountain With A View, from her EP which was released on Valentine's Day, Kelsea details the moment she realised her marriage was over. "It's 7AM and I'm on a mountain with a view / I'm the only one, alone, at a table meant for two," she begins in the track.

The chorus then goes: "I'm wearin' the ring still, but I think I'm lyin' / Sometimes you forget yours, I think we're done tryin' / I realize you loved me much more at twenty-three / I think that this is when it's over for me, mm, mm."

In January 2023, Kelsea was finally ready to move on from Morgan when she and Chase Stokes first sparked romance rumours. Chase, who stars in Netflix's Outer Banks series as John B, sent fans wild when he shared a snap of the pair cuddled up together at a basketball game.

The pair then kept things pretty low-key but seemingly "hard launched" in April - as per Kelsea's Instagram story - when they walked their first red carpet as a couple at the CMT Awards.
