Chase Stokes<\/a> just added some fresh ink to his collection of tattoos … and the meaning behind his latest piece suggests he\u2019s moving on after his recent split from Kelsea Ballerini<\/a>, according to his tattoo artist.<\/p>\n

Celebrity tattoo artist Winterstone — the man behind the scripted piece — tells us Chase recently stopped by his studio to catch up and get a few tattoos … though there\u2019s only one the actor wanted to share publicly.<\/p>\n

The “Outer Banks” star’s clean tat reads \u201cthey will judge us by our fruit” — a line inspired by a Bible verse — and is placed strategically on his back. We’re told Chase chose this phrase as a reminder while he “moves forward” in life. According to Winterstone, Chase said he\u2019s feeling good and enlightened about where things are currently.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting … the artist tells us the two never discussed Chase\u2019s breakup<\/a> with Kelsea Ballerini during the entire appointment \u2026 suggesting Chase may already be leaving the past behind with a little help from some fresh scripture.<\/p>\n

Winterstone says the two have been friends for years, and Chase simply reached out wanting to catch up and get some new ink. The actor got multiple tattoos during the visit, and the artist says each piece carries personal meaning.<\/p>\n

We broke the story … our sources say it’s completely over this time between the couple and the relationship has run its course — ultimately deciding it wasn’t meant to be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chase Stokes New Tat Inspired by ‘Moving Forward’ … After Kelsea Split Published March 17, 2026 4:00 AM…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":529004,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[88],"class_list":{"0":"post-529003","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=529003"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529003\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/529004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=529003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=529003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=529003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
