Michael Ray and Audrina Patridge seemingly confirmed a budding relationship on Instagram on Tuesday evening (July 9).
The country artist and TV personality appear in a romantic photo together at Tooth & Nail House of Wine in Paso Robles, California. Patridge, 39, posted the snapshot on Instagram with the caption: “‘There’s a lot of things in life worth letting go. But the ones that mean the most, you gotta hold’ 🤍 “ The quote is a lyric to Ray’s single, “Hold,” which made its debut earlier this year.
Ray, 36, shared the photo on his Instagram story and commented on Patridge’s post: “Let’s go babe!!! Grateful for you and Kirra ❤️♾️,” which Patridge responded to with two red heart emojis. Kirra is Patridge’s daughter whom she shares with her ex-husband (Ray has also been divorced). Patridge recently shared several photos of Kirra on Instagram and gushed, “how is she 8 already! Where does the time go. Watching her grow into the amazing, kind,bright and loving little girl has been the greatest joy of my life. Her laughter, creativity, sass and curiosity get me everyday! Haha.” Ray commented with a red heart emoji.
The apparent confirmation of a new relationship arrives after a few months of the couple liking one another’s posts and appearing on Instagram stories. Last month, Patridge shared a photo on her story of the couple embracing one another in a kiss. Though Ray did not appear in any of the photos, Patridge shared a few glimpses of her time at Stagecoach earlier this year in Indio, California. Her latest post with the “Whiskey And Rain” artist has garnered more than 800 comments os of publication time on Wednesday morning (July 10). See the photo below.
