"I have not seen them, [but] I've definitely texted and called both of them," Chris explained. "They're both good since [the last] time I've heard from them. As good as you can be."
"I was in touch with Blake all day that day," Chris added, referring to the day the cheating rumors began to circulate. "He was like, 'Dude, sorry.' I was like, 'I know man.'"

"I don't think anybody shies away from being in love," Chris shared. "I think that's one of the great feelings. I mean obviously I've written a lot of songs about being in love and a lot of songs falling out of it. The falling out of it never makes you scared to get back in it."
Chris' upcoming album, I'm Comin' Over, comes out this fall, while the I'm Comin' Over Tour kicks off Oct. 22 in Savannah, Georgia.
