Riley Green Reveals His Ultimate “Red Flag” When It Comes To Dating

The million dollar question for Riley Green fans.

Of course, he has been at the center of dating rumors for the last several months, and fans have also accused him and duet partner Ella Langley of being a couple after their hit duet “You Look Like You Love Me,” came out, and more recently, he’s been had rumors swirling with Megan Moroney.

The rumors about Megan and Riley started after both of them left some vacation breadcrumbs where they were seemingly together. Moroney confirmed they happened to be on vacation in the same place, but also shut down the thought that they were seeing each other in a romantic capacity.

“He was individually on his vacation with his friends. St. Barts is a popular place! It’s one of those things where if you know someone on a small island, you’re like, ‘Oh, sh*t, you’re here too.’ So it was fun. Just because we’re hanging out doesn’t mean we’re romantically dating. You know what I mean?”

Since then, the two were spotted in his hometown of Jacksonville, Alabama, and at different airports together here and there, though publicly, the two have consistently denied that they’re an official couple.

During a radio interview last week on Country Nights Live with Bev Rainey, Riley was asked about some of the biggest rumors he’s seen about himself on social media. He of course mentioned all the rumors about his dating life, and also laughed about how the status of his signature mustache is a hot topic, too:

“I find out who I’m dating weekly, you know, on social media. That’s a pretty big on there. But I think a lot of stuff I see is so outlandish that it keeps me humble a little bit, then don’t have to worry about. I’m like, okay, don’t say anything on there. It’s interesting. how things like shaving your mustache can become viral now, I never thought that would be a thing.”

Rainey straight up asked Riley if he was dating anyone since he mentioned it in the previous response, and it’s the question everyone wants an answer to… Riley once again confirmed that he’s “not” dating anyone right now, though he’s “rumored to have dated a lot of people.” He explained, like he has before, that with Ella in particular, fans want to believe that the songs are so real to the artists true lives, similar to country power couples like Tim and Faith and Johnny and June.

He didn’t mention or allude to the Megan rumors, but he did straight up say he’s single… so I guess we’ll have to take him at his word for now:

“I’m not, no. I’m rumored to have dated a lot of people… but I kind of understand that. You know, people always long for that like Tim and Faith, Johnny and June, you know, George and Tammy thing.

So you know, you know me and Ella have two giant songs together and I think fans kinda wanna believe that what you’re singing about is real, and follow those lyrics and think there’s a story there. So I can comprehend people that are thinking there’s something going on. But for me, I’m just glad that we’re having success together, and so proud of her, and really lucky that we’re on tour together with two big songs at the same time.”

And he also let fans in on the do’s and don’t of getting his attention during an interview with SiriusXM’s The Highway, when he revealed his “red flags” and “green flags” when it comes to dating. His answers were pretty simple, and in terms of a red flag, Riley says if his mom doesn’t like the girl, it’s just not gonna work out:

“A dating red flag would be if my mom doesn’t like her. It’s not gonna work.”

Seems fair enough… but if you get his dog, Carl’s, stamp of approval, you’re in:

“A green flag would be if Carl likes you, then we might have a shot.”

There’s obviously a lot of competition, but there you have it, ladies… make sure you get on Carl’s good side if you ever see him out and about:
