“Happy to be the B in LGBTQ+,” the 34-year-old shared on Instagram. “Happy Pride ๐.”
This announcement follows her filing for divorce from her husband, singer-songwriter Ryan Hurd, 37, after five years of marriage on October 2.
During a December appearance on “The Howard Stern Show,” the Grammy-winning country star shared that sheโs not ready to date amid her divorce, finding solace in her music.
“I would like this to sort of wrap up,” Morris said about her divorce. “I don’t have the headspace for that yet. But I’m writing so much right now. That’s kind of been my way of dating is just through song.”

Morris has been outspoken about her struggles with the country music industry and its homophobic rhetoric.
“I hate feeling like I need to be the hall monitor of treating people like human beings in country music,” she told the Los Angeles Times in September 2022 after a public dispute with Brittany Aldean, wife of country singer Jason Aldean, over gender-affirming care for children.
Maren Morris continued: “Itโs exhausting. But thereโs a very insidious culture of people feeling very comfortable being transphobic and homophobic and racist, and that they can wrap it in a joke and no one will ever call them out for it.”
In another interview with the outlet in September, she remarked that the country music industry is “burning itself down without my help.”
