Contestant Wyatt Pike‘s mysterious exit from American Idol birthed a wild rumor: the 20-year-old singer left the competition because of an alleged physical fight with one of the judges, Luke Bryan. Of course, this is just an unfounded fan theory, which Luke’s wife Caroline Bryan confirmed after seeing one of these rumors herself online. “Trust me, [Luke] has covid. I kinda wish there was a fight. I’m sick of taking care of kids alone and sanitizing. I’m peeing Lysol!!!,” Caroline responded to a fan on TikTok on April 18, according to a screenshot of the comment that E! News obtained.
