‘American Idol’ Are Noah Thompson & HunterGirl Really Dating?

American Idol fans want to know if Noah Thompson and HunterGirl are really dating. The two first sparked the dating rumors earlier this year. Their performances and on-stage chemistry had the rumor mill buzzing. Both of them denied the dating rumors.

However, that hasn’t stopped fans from buzzing about them. Noah and HunterGirl have become good friends ever since their Idol journey came to an end. As fans know, Noah was declared the winner of Season 20 of the ABC singing competition. This came as a shock to most people, especially after such a dramatic season of highs and lows.

Noah Thompson addresses the dating rumors again

In a new interview, the American Idol Season 20 winner addressed the dating rumors once again. He wanted to address it once again. Noah and his longtime girlfriend Angel have ended their relationship. The couple shares a baby boy. Some fans think his fellow AI contestant is the reason behind their split.

This reignited the dating rumors once again. Noah wants to make it clear that this new rumor couldn’t be further from the truth. He set the record straight on Taste of Country Nights. Even though American Idol put their trailers next to each other, nothing was going on between them.

“The only thing that bothers me is people talking about, like, Hunter,” Noah told Taste of Country Nights’ Evan Paul. “We had our trailers side-by-side. That’s not something we picked. We became close, man. We talked about how one person was feeling this way… she was just kind of there for me and I was there for her. We just became best friends, man.”

Hunter Wolkonowski is the 24-year-old that Noah competed against in Season 20 of American Idol. Noah seemed annoyed by the persistent rumors. He doesn’t appreciate that his new “best friend” is blamed for the end of his relationship. The show isn’t a stranger when it comes to dating rumors.

American Idol caused dating rumors before

Back in 2011, Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina were the center of dating rumors. The two became close during their time on American Idol. They ended up first and second in Season 10. Their career mimics that of Hunter and Noah.

The two never dated, even if the fans didn’t believe them. The rumors ignited long before social media ever existed. At the time, American Idol message boards were lighting up about the two. Once again, Noah confirmed in his latest interview that he’s not in a relationship with Hunter.

“I love Hunter to death. But we are not together, by no means,” he added.

Noah also reflected back on his American Idol experience. He felt like a fish out of water. The country singer previously admitted that he almost left the show. He was missing his family at one point and wanted to go back home to Kentucky. However, he stuck it out with Hunter by his side.
