Insider Claims That Easton Coleman Is Using Rayne Bellamy
Boston—For days, thousands of fans have been wondering what’s going on with the relationship between Rayne Bellamy and Easton Coleman, the front man of We Are No Saints, a band from Boston that has experienced a meteoric rise in the past two weeks. Bellamy is said to be one of the reasons behind their success. There’s no denying that the band owes its rise to fame primarily to the rock star’s daughter and her appearance in the music video for their first single, “Dance with You ’Til Midnight.”
According to an insider, Coleman has been working hard over the past few months to build a relationship with Bellamy after the two met in Boston. Admittedly, it’s a strange coincidence that the band, which was previously unknown, is suddenly everywhere. Only the two of them know how much truth there is to the rumors. However, we hope that Coleman does not live up to the band’s name, as Bellamy has been through enough in recent months.

I feel sick as I read one article after another. There are too many, and I know I need to stop, but I can’t bring myself to put my phone down and leave it alone.
Using Liam Bellamy’s daughter... marketing strategy... insider... spotlight... relationship... no denying that the band owes its rise to fame primarily to the rock star’s daughter.
My mind is racing, my head is too full, my heart is beating too fast.
I should be happy that the video was so well received, and people want more from us. They want our music. Instead, everything feels wrong because of these damn articles. I’ve been reading them for what feels like ten hours without being able to stop myself. I’m obsessed in the unhealthiest way, and part of me knows that it’s all absolute bullshit.
There are no insiders, and our relationship isn’t some crappymarketing strategy. It’s just Rayne and me. We’re successful because our song is good.
Unfortunately, there’s also a small part of me that sees it differently. I’m afraid the people who write these articles are right, because the doubts in my head are too loud. What if some of what they’re saying is true? Before Rayne came to Boston, before we met, things weren’t working out with the music. Not the way they should have. We gave it our all, but it was never enough.
And then we wrote this one song that changed everything, and we did it together.
“Stop feeding yourself that crap.” Beck appears behind me so unexpectedly that I’m startled. I didn’t even hear him come home. He was still at work last I checked, while Colin was on the phone with Emma in his room and Jax was upstairs busy taking care of our social media accounts. He took charge without being asked, and I’m grateful because I probably wouldn’t be able to handle all the toxic crap on TikTok and Instagram. Not even if the positive feedback outweighs the negative at the moment.
“I can’t,” I reply. I shout in protest as he takes my phone away.
“You have to!” His eyes narrow to slits. “You know that none of what those idiots write is true, right?”
“Yes,” I reply, but even I can hear that I don’t sound convinced.
“East...” he says warningly, because he knows exactly what’s going through my head, and I groan in annoyance.
“I know it’s bullshit, okay? Rationally speaking.”
“Well, then please try to look at it rationally.” He smiles warningly, and I would really like to do what he asks, but unfortunately, it’s not that easy.
“Do you think we could have done it without Rayne?” Thequestion bursts out of me before I can stop myself, and I hate myself for even asking it.
Sighing, Beck plops down next to me on the sofa. “Does it matter?”
I want to say no, but that would be a lie.
“It’s just... Never mind. It’s stupid.” I let my head fall back and press my palms against my eyes.
“East, come on. Spit it out.”
“I feel like the biggest asshole ever.”
“You’re not.”
“You’re just saying that because you’re my best friend.”
“And because I know you. Come on. Tell me.”
“Remember when I had that fight with Rayne? When I freaked out after we wrote the song?”
