It didn't take long for the media to jump on the house tour video. Within hours of posting, headlines started popping up everywhere, speculating on what Georgie and Morgan's next big step might be.

"Morgan Wallen and Georgie Day Move in Together—Is Marriage on the Horizon?"
"Country Music's Power Couple: Wedding Bells Soon for Georgie and Morgan?"
"Georgie Day and Morgan Wallen's Romantic Farmhouse—Will This Be Their Forever Home?"

Georgie was scrolling through her phone while sitting at the kitchen counter, sipping on her morning coffee when she noticed the influx of articles. She let out a chuckle, shaking her head at the absurdity of it all.

"Morgan, come check this out," she called, holding her phone up for him to see as he strolled into the kitchen, still groggy from sleep.

Morgan squinted at the screen, reading the headline. "'Wedding bells?'" He raised an eyebrow, then laughed. "Well, they sure are getting ahead of themselves."

Georgie rolled her eyes. "I mean, seriously. We post one house tour and suddenly everyone's planning our wedding for us."

Morgan leaned against the counter, grinning. "Maybe we should have some fun with this."

Georgie smirked, catching his drift. "Oh, you're thinking about trolling the internet again, aren't you?"

Morgan shrugged, his mischievous grin widening. "Why not? They're already buzzing. Let's keep them guessing."

A few hours later, Morgan posted a picture on Instagram—a close-up of his hand holding something shiny, the angle hiding what it was. The caption?
"Big announcement coming soon..."

Fans and media went wild.

@FanGirl24:
"OMG! Are they getting engaged?!?!"

@MorganAndGeorgie4Life:
"Please tell me this is what I think it is!!! 😍"

@CountryMusicUpdates:
"BREAKING: Morgan Wallen teases a 'big announcement.' Could this be an engagement ring? Fans are losing their minds!"

Georgie was having way too much fun watching the chaos unfold. "You're evil," she teased, scrolling through the endless comments on social media.

Morgan smirked, sitting beside her on the couch. "Evil? Nah, just keeping them on their toes."

Later that evening, they posted a joint TikTok video. The scene opened with them sitting side by side, looking serious. Georgie held up a whiteboard that read, "Big news..."

The camera cut to Morgan, who held up a matching whiteboard that said, "Something huge is happening..."

Then, in classic fashion, the music cut out, and the camera zoomed in on a brand-new pizza delivery box sitting on their kitchen counter. The words "We finally picked the best pizza place near the farmhouse!" flashed on the screen.

The video ended with Georgie and Morgan laughing as they took a bite of pizza.

The comments exploded:

@CountryLove:
"I KNEW IT WAS A TROLL. THESE TWO ARE TOO MUCH 😂"

@FanOfGeorgie:
"They're literally the internet's best pranksters, and I love them for it."

@MorganStan:
"I was so ready for an engagement announcement!! The pizza thing killed me."

@GeorgieAndMorganForever:
"Okay, but like... WHEN is the actual engagement happening? 😏"

As the buzz continued, so did the media speculation. Despite the playful trolling, the headlines didn't stop:

"Georgie and Morgan Keep Fans Guessing—When's the Proposal?"
"Country's Favorite Couple Isn't Ready for Marriage... Or Are They?"

Georgie threw her phone down on the couch, exasperated but laughing. "I swear, no matter what we do, they're convinced we're about to tie the knot."

Morgan chuckled, pulling her into his lap. "Let 'em talk. We'll do things on our own time."

Georgie smiled, resting her head on his shoulder. "You're right. It's just funny how obsessed everyone is."

Over the next few days, the media frenzy died down a little, but the rumors never quite went away. Every public appearance they made, every post they shared, was analyzed by fans and gossip columns alike. Were they hinting at something bigger? Was there a proposal on the horizon?

But instead of letting the pressure get to them, Georgie and Morgan did what they always did—handled it with humor and a bit of mischief.

Georgie looked up from her phone one evening and smirked. "You know, we should keep this going for a while longer. Maybe next time we'll post something with a veil."

Morgan raised his eyebrows, clearly entertained by the idea. "Or I'll start wearing a tux for no reason."

Georgie laughed, shaking her head. "People would lose their minds."

And so, their playful trolling continued, but through it all, Georgie and Morgan remained grounded in their relationship. They weren't in any rush, despite what the headlines said. They had each other, their new home, and a future filled with music, laughter, and plenty of surprises.

For now, that was enough.
