Did Riley Green Bring a Date to the 2025 CMA Awards? Fans Think So…

Riley Green was one of the most talked-about stars at the 59th Annual CMA Awards on November 19 — and not just because of his big wins. Yes, he walked away with Song of the Year, Single of the Year, and Music Video of the Year for his Ella Langley duet, “You Look Like You Love Me.” And yes, his smoldering performance of “Worst Way” had the crowd buzzing.

But what really set social media on fire was who he was sitting with in the audience.

Cameras Catch a Familiar Face Beside Riley

Although Riley walked the red carpet solo, fans quickly noticed that every time the camera panned to him during the broadcast, he wasn’t alone. Seated right next to him was Nashville-based influencer Bryana Ferringer — instantly sparking speculation about whether she might be more than a friend.

The pairing didn’t go unnoticed. Viewers immediately jumped online, pointing out that Bryana appeared in multiple shots throughout the night, smiling and laughing beside the country star.

Are Riley Green and Bryana Ferringer Dating?

While neither has confirmed the relationship, the rumors didn’t start at the CMAs. Riley and Bryana have been linked for months, with fan-captured photos and videos of the two surfacing as early as August. They’ve been spotted together at several of his tour stops — including Florida, Alabama, and Colorado — and fans noted that they follow each other on social media.

One detail fans loved?
Even Riley’s dog, Carl, follows her online.

Despite all the speculation, Riley has chosen not to comment publicly on his dating life — staying true to his reputation for keeping things private.

Who Is Bryana Ferringer?

At 27, Bryana is a Nashville influencer known for lifestyle and Western fashion content. She previously dated country singer Tucker Wetmore, and her appearance beside Riley at the CMAs marked the first time many fans have seen them together at a major event.

Is Love Inspiring New Music?

Riley has joked in interviews that he’s always been better at writing breakup songs than love songs. With Bryana possibly entering the picture, fans are wondering:

Could this be the inspiration that flips his songwriting script?

Only time will tell if the two will go public — or if their relationship will continue quietly behind the scenes. What’s certain is that Riley Green didn’t just win big at the 2025 CMAs…

He left fans with a brand-new mystery to unpack.
