The Almost Romance, and the Boy Morgan Wallen Used to Be

Imagine dumping a future country King just because you think he is too wild for you. This is what Maggie, daughter of Leanne did with Morgan Wallen.

Country star Morgan Wallen was just a sweet landscaper before he became famous. He met comedian Leanne Morgan at a charity event in Knoxville, Tennessee, right after he was cut from The Voice.

Leanne was so charmed by him that she promised him a casserole for the road. Later, Wallen went on a few dates with Leanne’s daughter, Maggie.

Maggie thought Wallen was a “darling” guy. But their dating did not last very long. According to Leanne, Maggie felt that Morgan Wallen “likes wild girls that like to key cars.” Maggie joked that her children were “cut from a different cloth” because they attended a Christian school.

People online loved hearing this small-town story. One fan said it felt like a “if they dated it would have felt like a warm hug.” Another viewer commented that listening to their dating story was “so comforting yet funny,” just like conversations at any Southern family gathering.

Maggie walked away from the boy who was once promised a casserole for the man who writes about chaos. Wallen’s dating life became more public and much more complicated after he became famous. He soon had a high-profile relationship with ex-fiancée KT Smith. They welcomed their son, Indigo, in 2020.
