LOS ANGELES Trisha Yearwood recently honored her husband, Garth Brooks, during a momentous occasion as she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The esteemed country singer took the opportunity to express her gratitude for Brooks, whom she describes as her greatest supporter and cheerleader.
Yearwood, now 60 years old, reflected on her journey while addressing the audience at the ceremony. She emphasized the significant role Brooks has played in her success, stating that his excitement for her achievements often exceeds even her own.
“The first Garth that I met is here, the one who has truly been my cheerleader,” Yearwood shared with enthusiasm. She noted that despite Brooks’ incredible accolades and numerous awards, his joy in her successes is unparalleled. “I’ve never seen him get more excited than he does when I receive something. For all the people that want this for me, nobody wants it more than you, and I just appreciate you for… we’re down a few stars from each other, but we’re going to figure something out.”
Adding a touch of humor, Yearwood quipped, “We’ll put some breadcrumbs or something,” highlighting the light-hearted nature of their relationship.
Yearwood also proclaimed Brooks as the love of her life. She noted how deeply he celebrates the successes of others, asserting, “He’s my person. He has accomplished so much in his career, but he is happiest when other people win.” This sentiment illustrates the mutual support that defines their partnership. Yearwood continued, “I think he just believes in me so much and he believes that I deserve more than I believe I deserve, so I know that he’s genuinely the happiest person here today.”
Yearwood’s tribute to Brooks was echoed by fellow country artist Carly Pearce, who shared with Fox News Digital that Yearwood embodies timelessness in the industry. Pearce called Yearwood “the soundtrack to my childhood,” acknowledging the impact of songs like ‘Walkaway Joe.’
“She has been one of those true country artists that has continued to evolve over decades while remaining classic and timeless,” Pearce asserted. She admired Yearwood’s ability to connect with fans, saying, “She’s one of the most down-to-earth people that I’ve ever met. She says hello to everybody. She’s everybody’s friend, and she’s everybody’s sister, and I think that’s a true testament to who she is.”
Since their marriage in 2005, Yearwood has embraced her role as a bonus mom to Brooks’ three children: Taylor, August, and Allie, from his previous marriage to Sandy Mahl. Their blended family has thrived thanks to Yearwood’s nurturing spirit, which she attributes to the strong support she and Brooks provide each other.
In a previous interview conducted in 2021, Yearwood opened up about the dynamics of their marriage, describing both partners as “very much alphas.” She recognized the challenges that come with two independent individuals maintaining their own careers but reaffirmed their commitment to one another.
“We’re both very independent people who run our own ships. Sometimes when two people are driving two big ships, it can be difficult,” she explained. Yet Yearwood is confident in the strength of their bond, confidently stating that their relationship is “better now than ever.”
Yearwood candidly shared her personal growth in navigating difficult moments within the marriage. In the past, her response to challenges was to disengage. However, she acknowledges that her relationship with Brooks is different. “I was always the person in relationships when things got difficult I was really happy to just bail. I was good at that. So in this situation, that’s not an option because this is the love of my life,” she shared. The couple’s commitment to addressing issues together has strengthened their relationship.
Yearwood’s heartfelt remarks and the overall celebration of their partnership at the Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony speak volumes about their enduring bond. As they continue their journey together, both in personal life and professional endeavors, their mutual respect and support serve as an inspiring model for couples worldwide.
