Morgan Wallen's ex-fiancee KT Smith finds 'no evidence' to link his arrest with her marriage announcement

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: Morgan Wallen's ex-fiancee, KT Smith, has come forward to dispel rumors about the timing of his arrest with her recent marriage announcement with Luke Scornavacco.

In a statement released on Tuesday, April 9, Smith expressed her best wishes to Wallen, according to the New York Post.

KT Smith asserts Morgan Wallen's arrest is not connected to her marriage announcement

Smith asserted that no evidence suggests the country singer's arrest in Nashville is connected to her recent marriage announcement with Luke Scornavacco.

"Although it may seem like it correlates because of the timeline, I have no evidence to believe the incident had anything to do with the recent marriage announcement," she stated.

"I cannot speak on Morgan’s behalf, but I do pray the very best for him. Praying this was just a slip-up and that he will return to the good path that he was on prior," Smith added.

Inside Morgan Wallen's recent arrest

Wallen was taken into custody on Sunday, April 7 after he allegedly threw a chair from the sixth-floor rooftop of a bar in Nashville, Tennessee.

The 'Last Night' singer's attorney Worrick Robinson issued a statement following the arrest.

"At 10:53 p.m. Sunday evening, Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct," read the statement, adding that he is "cooperating fully with authorities."

Wallen was previously arrested in Nashville for public intoxication in 2020 after he was kicked out of a bar.

In 2021, the singer was criticized after a video clip surfaced showing him using a racial slur while intoxicated.

He then apologized for the issue and revealed that he checked into a rehabilitation center following the incident.

KT Smith's marriage announcement

The 'Wasted on You' singer's arrest took place days after his ex-fiancee revealed the news of her surprise engagement and announced her marriage.

Smith shared on March 30 that she and her boyfriend Luke Scornavacco got engaged on March 29 as she posted a picture of her posing with him and her son, Indigo, 3, whom she shares with Wallen.

"03/29/24: when dreams turned to reality. Also, shoutout @brilliantearth for leveling up what we ever thought a dream ring could be," she wrote.

The influencer revealed on April 3 that she and Scornavacco got married and revealed an image of the couple holding up a marriage license.

"Swipe for a surprise," she wrote next to a series of pictures of herself and her young son posing alongside her husband.

In 2016, Wallen and Smith announced their engagement but broke it off and continued dating on and off until 2020 after they welcomed their son together.
