Over the weekend, Twitter was set ablaze with a wild rumor that ventriloquism sensation Darci Lynne was getting married at just 20 years old. The trending hashtag #DarciWedding quickly shot to the top of social media, sparking excitement, confusion, and even outrage among fans around the world. The alleged “news” claimed that the America’s Got Talent Season 12 winner was preparing to walk down the aisle with a mystery man whose identity was said to be “an older celebrity connected to the entertainment industry.”

The internet exploded with speculation. Some fans celebrated the supposed milestone, while others questioned whether 20 was too young for such a life-changing decision. Memes, emotional tributes, and even fake wedding invites circulated rapidly — all before any confirmation.

However, just hours after the rumor began gaining traction, Darci Lynne’s team released an official statement debunking the claim entirely. “Darci is not engaged, nor is she planning a wedding,” the spokesperson clarified. “This is an unfounded rumor with no basis in fact. She is currently focused on her music, performances, and upcoming tour dates.”

Darci Lynne herself also took to Instagram Stories to jokingly address the situation: “I woke up to find out I was apparently getting married… news to me 😂 Don’t worry y’all, I’m still just trying to figure out dinner plans.”

The Oklahoma native rose to fame in 2017 at just 12 years old when she won America’s Got Talent with her incredible talent for ventriloquism, charm, and powerhouse vocals. Since then, she has performed across the country, appeared on talk shows, starred in holiday specials, and built a loyal fan base.

This bizarre wedding rumor may have been nothing more than a viral hoax, but it certainly reminded everyone of just how beloved — and closely watched — Darci Lynne is by fans.
