Country Stars’ Cheating Scandals: Garth Brooks, Jason Aldean, More

Jason & Brittany Aldean

While he was still with wife Jessica Ussery, the mom of his eldest children, the “Dirty Road Anthem” star was caught kissing American Idol alum Brittany in 2012. “I was drunk,” the 47-year-old later said, apologizing for “embarrassing my family and myself.” Not that embarrassed: He and Brittany, 37, began dating after his 2013 split and wed in 2015.

Garth Brooks & Sandy Mahl

Garth, who wed his first wife in 1986, described meeting Trisha a year later. “It’s strange because I felt that feeling like when you just meet your wife, but I’ve been married for 13 months,” he told Ellen DeGeneres. He later copped to being unfaithful, saying he “wore out a pair of jeans while I was down on my knees begging [Sandy] to take me back.”

Keith Urban & Nicole Kidman

In 2006, lingerie model Amanda Wyatt claimed she had an affair with the country singer. “Keith cheated on her repeatedly, right up to just before they got married,” she told one news outlet. Keith, 56, and 57-year-old Nicole, who wed in 2006 and have two daughters, have never commented on her allegations.

LeAnn Rimes & Eddie Cibrian

The country star, 42, was married to Dean Sheremet when she fell for Eddie, her costar in the 2009 Lifetime movie Northern Lights. “I felt like this pathetic husband hanging around,” Dean later said, adding that he told LeAnn to take off her wedding ring. “She freaked out.” Not for long. She and Eddie, 51, tied the knot in 2011.

Shania Twain & Mutt Lange

“I was ready to die,” Shania, 59, wrote of discovering her husband’s infidelity. “To go to bed forever and never wake up.” But in a huge twist, after music producer Mutt, 75, left her for her best friend, the country music great turned around and married her pal’s scorned spouse, Frédéric Thiébaud, in 2011.
