Florida Georgia Line bandmates Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley have achieved major success in country music, but behind the scenes, it wasn’t all the time peachy between them.
Hubbard and Kelley founded their duo in 2010 and broke records with their debut single, “Cruise,” in 2012. After releasing 4 studio albums from 2012 to 2019, they made headlines in 2020 when Tyler and his wife, Hayley Hubbard, unfollowed his bandmate.
The 2 men addressed the social media drama in a joint interview on SiriusXM’s Exit 209.
“I unfollowed BK for a number of days while we were through this political, you already know, in the course of this election and the whole lot happening,” Tyler told Storme Warren. “And I even called him and told him, I said, ‘Hey buddy, I really like you. And I really like you rather a lot more in real life than in your Stories right away. So I’m just going to, in order that’s why I’m unfollowing you. Nothing personal. I still love you. You’re still my brother.’ I just didn’t wish to see it each time I opened Instagram. And so it wasn’t a giant deal.”
While they went on to release their fifth studio album, Life Rolls On, in 2021, the musicians hinted at a hiatus in 2022, launching solo careers. Brian, who’s married to Brittney Kelley, clarified on the time that they’re “not going their separate ways” but fairly taking a “break.” Nevertheless, months later, he hinted that there have been no plans for the twosome to work together after wrapping their summer 2022 tour.
In December 2025, Tyler said he was meeting up with Brian before the vacations in hopes of constructing a brand new relationship together with his once-close friend. Three months later, the pair were hanging out — with their spouses, too.
