Believe it or not, Ballerini is a newlywed, herself! The singer said "I do" to husband Morgan Evans on Dec. 2. And during the ending scene, Ballerini is "backstage" when an assistant hands her over her cellphone because "M" is giving her a ring. She answers "Hi Baby" with a grin. And she lived happily ever after!
