KT Smith is having a big year already, from growing her following as a social media influencer to getting engaged.

Smith showed off her marriage certificate with Luke Scornavacco in an April 3 joint Instagram post. They announced their engagement two days prior. It wasn’t clear if the two were married yet.

Smith went public with their relationship in a June 2023 post.

Wallen and Smith co-parent their son, Indigo Wilder, as they split in 2019 after three years of dating.

Smith said in a 2021 post to her blog, "Thot Thoughts," that Indigo is the center of her and Wallen's life.

"Indie is the biggest part of our lives and has made both of us grow tremendously," she said.

The two also appeared to be on cordial terms. Following Wallen's April arrest for allegedly throwing a chair from a six-story rooftop bar in Nashville, Smith said she was "praying" for her ex.

Do Morgan Wallen and KT Smith have kids?

Yes, the two share one son, Indigo Wilder. He was born July 10, 2020.

Smith has credited her pregnancy with saving her life.

"When I found out I was pregnant, I went to the doctor, and she told me I had cervical cancer," Smith wrote in another 2021 post to her blog.

"If I wouldn’t have gotten pregnant with Indie- there is no telling how long I would’ve waited to go to the doctor," she added.

"I told y’all he saved me in many ways. After I delivered, I had a surgery to remove all the cancerous cells."

Are Morgan Wallen and KT Smith still together?

The former couple welcomed Indigo after they’d already broken up, Smith said in her blog post.

Wallen and Smith first met over Snapchat, Smith said in the post. After getting engaged a few months later, the relationship began to decline, partly because Wallen "wasn't the most faithful," she wrote.

"We started talking on Snapchat (LOL) and hung out very often, started dating- and then got engaged within a few months. We broke off the engagement but still dated consistently for about two years, living with one another for about three- but that third year was rocky," she said.

She added that the transition to co-parenting was difficult for her.

"Coparenting with Morgan at the beginning was extremely difficult because it was very new to both of us and I was still bitter towards him," she said. "After time passed and Indie became my life, I felt truly healed. He turned my life from going out and keeping myself distracted, to being a full time mom. That time with him brought all the healing I needed."

Now, Smith sees co-parenting as one of the best things for her son.

"We can be a family without being together," she wrote. "We can co-parent our wonderful little boy and raise him up to be amazing without being together. We can stick up for one another without being in love."

Who is KT Smith dating now?

KT Smith obtained a marriage certificate with Scornavacco and posted it to Instagram April 3.

Scornavacco is a digital content creator and Smith is a full-time mom and social media influencer.

"When dreams turned to reality," Smith captioned the proposal video she posted.

Smith comments on Wallen's April 2024 arrest

On April 7, Wallen was arrested for allegedly tossing a chair from the roof of a bar in Nashville, Tennessee.

Wallen was booked on three counts of felony reckless endangerment and one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said, who added that the chair crashed onto the street near two Nashville cops.

Smith told The Daily Beast she was keeping her ex in her prayers.

“I cannot speak on Morgan’s behalf, but I do pray the very best for him," Smith told the outlet. "Praying that this was just a slip up and that he will return to the good path that he was on prior.”

In an emotional video posted on her Instagram stories Wednesday, Smith said she'd had a stressful few days. She didn't mention Wallen by name or his arrest.

"It's just been a lot, mentally, being on damage control ... it's not even my place to be on damage control," she said in the video.

"But I'm having to deal with it on my comments and stuff," she said, as her son chattered in the background. "But anyway, we're not letting that steal our joy."
