No, Garth Brooks is now not divorcing Trisha Yearwood. At least, no longer that we all know of. The truth is, Trisha is Garth's 2nd wife, and he has a slightly low-profile yet super-expensive divorce under his belt already.
At least, it is low-profile in relation to movie star breakups these days. In 1986, Garth (whose complete identify is Troyal Garth Brooks) married Sandy Mahl, they usually had 3 daughters together between 1992 and 1996.
The couple actually lived via Garth's biggest years of status in combination, notes Country Fan Cast, but in 1999, they separated. Ironically, that was once round the similar time that Garth formally retired from traveling (at least, for that spherical of his country track reputation) to spend extra time together with his circle of relatives.
He indicated that he sought after to develop nearer to his youngsters, and stated he'd go back to recording and performing after his youngest kid was completed with college.
It does not sound like the divorce was too acrimonious, though; Garth mentioned at the time, "Sandy and I both agree that we need to get divorced," confirmed Country Fan Cast. He then elaborated, "Right now, we’re focused on the impact it will have on the children and how to handle that best, to remain parents even if we don’t remain husband and wife."
Still, Garth needed to pay out a rumored $125 million to Sandy Mahl Brooks, say a couple of sources,
Then, in 2005, Garth married Trisha Yearwood, and the rest is history. The pair settled down in Oklahoma to be near Garth's daughters; like many other country stars, he mostly lived out of the spotlight.
In 2019, Garth indulged fanatics' questions in an A&E particular that chronicled his lifestyles. As Good Housekeeping reported, Garth admitted that throughout his rise to popularity, he traveled frequently and wasn't house with Sandy very a lot. And but, he hadn't learned how much they might grown apart until Sandy talked about her feelings at the topic for the documentary.
But in that same documentary, Garth admitted that he'd met Trisha the similar 12 months he married Sandy, and he "felt that feeling like when you just meet your wife." Maybe that's part of the reason he felt he owed Sandy the $A hundred twenty five mil after they divorced? Though, Garth and Trisha were not relatively on the same stage as, say, LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian.
In each the A&E special and when receiving considered one of his earliest awards for country music, Garth thanked his former wife for the whole thing she'd completed to fortify his occupation. As Country Music Thang quoted, Sandy was once a driving force in Garth's luck. And as a result of he rose to fame all over the time they were married, she was entitled to a big portion of his internet value.
Now, however, he's value around $350 million (even without Trisha's wealth), so he isn't doing too poorly for himself.
