Carly Pearce has no secret, sinister agenda — she’s just making new music.
On Monday, the country singer took to X (Twitter) to shut down rumors she’s taking a dig at Maren Morris by making a new song with her ex-husband. If you didn’t know, Carly and Ryan Hurd are set to release a duet cover of Tom Petty’s Breakdown for an upcoming tribute album.

But social media user @christianIarson — co-founder of US Radio Updater — suggested the collab had some “shade” to it… Why? Maren filed for divorce from Ryan in October. Clearly some folks are speculating she’s taking sides? But Carly wholeheartedly disagrees. She responded to the post:
“Okay. Since I have seen this all over, I figured I would respond. Ryan has a been a friend of mine for over 10 yrs. I was asked by my label to record this song with him for the Petty tribute and of course I said yes because he’s a great artist.”
Simple as that! She concluded:
“STOP making something out of nothing!”
