Priscilla Block Reveals She And Boyfriend Elijah Will Make Their Red Carpet Debut at the 2025 CMA Awards [Exclusive]

Priscilla Block has recently started giving fans a glimpse into her relationship with longtime boyfriend Elijah, and now the couple is about to take a big leap into the spotlight. After keeping his identity and their love story mostly private, she’s beginning to share more—and on Wednesday, they’ll make their red carpet debut at the 2025 CMA Awards.

The songstress admitted to Country Now, “I can’t believe it. I am bringing him to the CMA Awards on Wednesday and he’s walking the carpet with me.”

This will be the first time that Block will put her relationship on full display for the world. She joked that she’s not sure if her boyfriend, who grew up in a small town in West Tennessee, is quite ready for a night of fans and cameras following him everywhere.

“I’m like, I don’t know if you’ve ever seen as many lights that you’re going to see on the carpet, but there’s a lot. It’s going to be great,” she shared. “He’s like, ‘I feel like we’re going to prom together.’ I’m like, wait, I love this. It’s kind of giving prom night.”

It’s safe to say that it will be hard for Priscilla Block to top her grand entrance and ensemble for the 2023 CMA Awards, when she arrived on a dump truck carrying a traffic cone and sported a neon yellow look featuring a bright safety vest. However, she teased that people are likely going to be “shocked” by the looks she and her man will be sporting on this year’s red carpet.

“Like I said, I love to keep people guessing on what I’m going to do,” she admitted before reflecting back on that memorable moment of 2023. “That one, I don’t know if I’ll ever top it because how iconic is it showing up to the CMAs in a dump truck in a full hi-vis outfit. So that one’s going to be tough to beat, but I think I might beat it tomorrow because I got my man by my side. I’m ready for it…the fit is fitting, so I’m excited.”

In a recent string of videos shared to TikTok, Priscilla Block finally gave fans the full rundown on how she first met Elijah, their two-year separation and how they found their way back to each other.

 It all began one night out on the town in Nashville in 2016, when the pair locked eyes at a bar called Crazy Town and felt love at first sight.

“We fell in love very fast. It was kind of crazy,” she admitted.

Block went on to say that their love quickly blossomed after that fateful night and went on to span two years. In that time, she attended his college graduation where she met his parents, and he became her number one supporter. Unfortunately, their love story eventually came to a halt, causing tremendous heartbreak on both ends.

“I remember we both just sobbed at his apartment rooftop and [it was] just one of those breakups…I felt like we were at this point where it was like right person, wrong time. I felt like we kind of just started arguing about stupid stuff and I kind of felt like we both just needed time away.”

But, they couldn’t stay apart for too long. Both Block and Elijah explored different avenues in their induvial lives for a period of time, however the country star says she never fell out of love with him. She admits she had reached her “lowest of lows” in 2020 and he came back into her life at just the right time.

“We run into each other one night at the bar and he comes up to me and he is like, ‘Hey, can we talk?’ And I’m like, ‘no, we’re not talking.’ I leave the bar not long after he leaves me a voicemail and he was like, ‘Hey, Priscilla, I’d love to talk…’

Before she knew it they were talking for hours on end and falling right back into place, almost as if no time has passed. So even though Block’s life was rapidly changing as her country music career began to take shape, Elijah was willing to wait until the moment was right for them to lean into their relationship fully. Even since they have been back in each other’s lives, the love has been strong and now, Block is ready to let the world know who has her heart.

“Y’all know how the internet can take something so beautiful and try and destroy it. So I don’t know. I’ve kind of just held onto this moment for a long time and let it be us. And I don’t know, I kind of just feel like I’m in a, I don’t care what anybody has to say about it now moment. So I think that’s kind of why I want to share it with everybody. Also, I did just release a song called ‘Elijah,’ so I kind of opened up the floor for the conversation,” she added. 

Fans can catch Priscilla Block and Elijah making their CMA Awards red carpet debut on prior to the show airing this Wednesday at 8:00-11:00 PM/ET on ABC. It will also be available next day on Hulu.
