After dating for about five months, Ca s sadee Pope opened up about her new love, Sam Palladio

The couple first met at a CMA Awards afterparty a year ago. The duo,  however, didn't rush for dating until December of last year. 

Opening about her Nashville star beau, the 28-year-old singer said their relationship is "super easy breezy." She said to Taste of Country:

"He's super talented,"

She added:

"We met a long time ago — I think it was at a CMA afterparty — and it was like a hi-bye, never saw him again, never hung out. And then, gosh I think it was December of last year,"

The Voice winner further revealed:

"We decided to take our dogs to the dog park … and we hit it off! For now — I don't know, it's still new." "I think the original idea [for the date] was his and then I was like, ‘How about tomorrow?' " 

Pope disclosed about her romance with her musician and actor beau via her Instagram post on 25 March sharing a cozy snap at Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd‘s wedding.

She captioned the post:

"Watched my two buds get married yesterday. My heart is so full for you @marenmorris & @ryanhurd! Also, I’ll pay you later for being my date, @sampalladio."

Pope most recently released her new single Take You Home.

“The love of my life is now OFFICIALLY the love of my life. Never been happier.”
