Miranda Lambertshocked fans when she married police officerBrendan McLoughlinjust a few months after meeting him in New York City.
“I was married before, and it was a huge wedding and everything was very public.
So was my divorce,” she toldPeople.
“This is my actual life.
But Lambert isn’t the only one with a complicated romantic history.
McLoughlin was reportedly engaged to another woman when he got someone else pregnant.
His past certainly didn’t deter Lambert, who has opened up about being a stepmother.
“My stepson is amazing,” she toldExtra.
It’s great.”
And, three years later, the couple is still going strong.
“We didn’t date very long before we got married.
And so we sort of got to just really, really, really get to know each other.
Cause it was just us two with no distraction, at my farm outside of Nashville.
And so I was really thankful for it because it made us really strong.”
The couple split their time between New York where McLoughlin’s son lives and that farm in Tennessee.
“We have the best of both worlds,” Lambert toldExtra.
I’m enjoying the balance."
