- Chase McWhorter and Hallie Batchelder hung out with a huge group of friends at Coachella last weekend.
- Hallie was reportedly linked to Chase’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives co-star, Dakota Mortensen, when they competed on Unwell Winter Games.
- Now, Chase has responded to a People report that claims he and Hallie made out at the famous music festival.
It looks like Hallie Batchelder may be linked to another DadTok member after her previous flirtation with Dakota Mortensen on Unwell Winter Games. After hitting up Coachella with a huge group of friends last weekend, Hallie dropped a photo dump on Monday, April 13, which included a pic with none other than Miranda Hope’s ex, Chase McWhorter.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star also dropped a separate selfie of himself and Hallie kissing his cheek shortly after, which had fans wondering: Is this a soft launch?
It very well could be—at least, according to one of People’s sources, who claimed the pair had “been DMing back and forth for a bit before Coachella” and “met for the first time in person on Friday” at the festival.
“It started off as flirty, good vibes, and then the flirtiness took over,” the insider alleged. “Saturday was their first kiss. They kissed at the end of Bieber’s set. They were making out on Sunday, too.”
They added that it’s “still early days” in Chase and Hallie’s rumored romance, but they added that Chase “seems happy” as they were “together all weekend,” adding, “He’s definitely smitten and we might see a trip to New York in the cards soon.”
Chase also poked fun at People’s report with a cheeky response on his Instagram Stories on Monday, April 13. “Omg i also heard this !!” he jokingly captioned the slide, which included the headline, “Mormon Wives’ Chase McWhorter Makes Out With Hallie Bachelder at Coachella.”
It’s important to note that one of Chase’s reps doubled down on the source’s claims, confirming that he and Hallie “shared a kiss at the festival and hung out together multiple times throughout the weekend.” The outlet reached out to Hallie’s reps, too, though they didn’t confirm or deny the dating rumors.
It’s unclear whether they’re actually an item, but interesting developments either way (especially considering that it’s been mere weeks since Chase was spotted making out with Jessi Draper!).
