Who Is Hardy's Girlfriend, Caleigh Ryan?

Not only is Hardy's girlfriend, Caleigh Ryan, one of his biggest fans, she's also his biggest critic, according to the country hit-maker. "We've been together for over two years, so now she's my biggest critic," he told the People in September 2020. "She's not going to hold back, and she's going to tell me if she loves it. But as always, she thought we nailed it," he added, referring to another hit track of his, "Boyfriend," which was inspired by a playful conversation he and Ryan had in the pool one day.

One scroll through Ryan's Instagram account will show you that the 23-year-old Ole Miss grad is absolutely obsessed with her man, as she's always posting pics of the two of them (or just him) with cute, funny, and mushy captions. She even has a denim jacket with his face on the back which she wears proudly — talk about dedication! The California native, who currently resides in Nashville with her hunky country star boyfriend, also seems like she's a true Cali girl through and through, as she loves the beach and spends time by the water when she gets the chance.

It seems like Ryan is by Hardy's side wherever he goes — which means we'll definitely have to keep our eyes peeled for the couple's red carpet looks at the CMT Music Awards this year.
