Kelsea Ballerini's new EP is named "Mount Pleasant," and it's almost certainly in reference to the local town where she spent a good amount of her time while dating "Outer Banks" star Chase Stokes.

The two reportedly started dating in 2023, making it official at the CMT Music Awards red carpet that April. They then split in September of this year but have since been seen together and are believed to be working things out, according to Us Weekly, Elle, Taste of County, InStyle and other publications.

Ballerini's EP, released on Nov. 14, references some of the struggles in her relationship with Stokes.

In her new song "587," she references Mount Pleasant specifically.

"587, 587 / Baby, that's the distance, path of least resistance / 587, here to Mount Pleasant / Got me reminiscing / It used to be a quick flight / By midnight we were kissing in the harbor / Now you've never felt farther," Ballerini sings.

When Stokes was filming the hit Netflix show in Charleston from 2023 into this year, Ballerini would visit. "The Voice" coach has been spotted around town, including at The Obstinate Daughter on Sullivan's Island, Record Stop in downtown Charleston and the Old Village and True Blues House of Wings in Mount Pleasant.

"One thing you should always know about me is I'm going to find a karaoke bar, and Blues Bar is that go-to spot for me in Charleston," Ballerini is quoted saying via Apple Maps' curated Hyperlocal guide. "It's kind of a hole-in-the-wall in a strip mall, and that's everything you need to know. I'll see you there!"

She also performed at the North Charleston Coliseum in April of this year. The Post and Courier interviewed her before the show.

“It's my second home at this point,” Ballerini said of Charleston at that time. “It's really cool to be able to play shows in cities that have my heart tied to them, whether that be Nashville or Charleston. I have friends there, obviously, because I live there part-time, and I get to go home after the show. It'll be extra special to get to do that.”

Stokes and Ballerini have been spotted holding hands in Scotland and Croatia over the last few weeks. Part of the last season of "Outer Banks" is reportedly being filmed in Croatia, bringing Stokes there for filming. A source told Us Weekly that the two fell back into their romance "very naturally."

Previously, Stokes dated "Outer Banks" co-star and his character's love interest, Madelyn Cline. The two ended things in November 2021.

One of the most iconic images in Charleston, if not the entire Lowcountry, the Ravenel Bridge has been featured in movies, television shows, magazines, books, a record album cover, countless photographs and even a video game.

None of that should be surprising. The majestic structure complements the beauty of the rivers and saltwater marshes, affording a view unlike any other. It’s more than just a way to get from one side to the other; it’s a destination in itself.

The Ravenel Bridge, which turned 20 this year, replaced two aging bridges: the John P. Grace (or the “old Cooper River Bridge”), built in 1929, and the Silas M. Pearman (aka the “new bridge”), built in 1969. Both of those bridges were also icons – the Grace for providing a death-defying (some say thrilling) driving experience and the Pearman for offering a reversible lane whenever needed. But when driving on either, the goal was to get over them as quickly and safely as possible. The experience is forever etched into the memory of anyone who crossed the twin bridges – and still causes some to quake.

When the Ravenel Bridge was completed in 2005, the entire bridge, including the traffic lanes, was open to pedestrians for two days before automobiles were permitted to cross. That gave people a unique opportunity to enjoy the view without the distraction of vehicular traffic, and for many, to confront the fears that still lingered from crossing the two previous bridges. Now, with traffic whizzing by just feet away, pedestrians and bicyclists flock to the special lane on the bridge, made just for them, to enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the harbor. Even commuters can’t help but take a quick glimpse at the breathtaking panorama.

The older bridges shared the limelight in their day, but safety had become an issue on the antiquated and rusting duo. However, there was another consideration in erecting the Ravenel Bridge. With the shipping industry propelling much of the area’s economy and container ships becoming larger, a new bridge had become a necessity. Mega freighters needed to be able to pass underneath on their way to and from the port terminals, but that wasn’t possible with the lower height of the earlier structures. The roadbed of the Ravenel soars 186 feet above the river, providing vessels with safe clearance.

In the 1990s, a new Cooper River bridge was one of a handful of major infrastructure priorities across the state. As is often the case, funding presented a challenge. The State Infrastructure Bank was created to finance the statewide projects, but communities were required to pay a share of those being considered. Residents opposed both a toll and an increase in sales tax to provide the money. Ultimately, Arthur Ravenel Jr., the state senator representing Mount Pleasant at the time (and eventual namesake of the bridge) helped to forge local, state and federal partnerships and bridge the chasm that usually defines politics.
