Lainey Wilson surprised fans when she arrived to the 2023 ACM Awards red carpet with a new man on her arm: Devlin Hodges. 

The country superstar, who is the most-nominated female at this year's awards show, made her red carpet debut with Hodges, a former NFL quarterback. 

Hodges was previously signed to the Pittsburgh Steelers. 

They were all smiles as they made their red carpet debut, making their relationship official.

"Yup, yup. I brought me a hot date tonight," she tells Entertainment Tonight. "I sure did. I mean, he's looking like a snack over there, ain't he? I said, 'You know what, you can be my date but you can't steal my thunder.'"

Lainey Wilson donned an olive green jumpsuit will bell bottoms, while Devlin "Duck" Hodges was by her side wearing a baby blue jacket, a white collared shirt with a bolo tie, a cowboy hat and boots. 

"I was like, 'Hey, look at all these cameras,'" she told the outlet. "Don't be nervous, boy!"   

While performing in Pittsburgh on Luke Combs' World Tour, Wilson donned her boyfriend's jersey on stage. 

Hodges was quick to share a flirty comment on her post. 

"Well you got my number. How about I get yours now?," he wrote.

She went on to promise fans that her steamy performance will be unlike anything she's ever done. 

"I'm showing you a side that I don't get to show a whole lot," Wilson added.
