Brantley Gilbert, whose latest single, “One Hell of an Amen,” is in the top 15 and climbing, will marry his fiancé Amber in less than a month, and he says he knows she’s the one because she knows the real him. “She knows me, and she knew me before all of the other stuff, so she really knows me,” says Brantley.
Plus, Amber doesn’t let him get away with anything. He says, “She don’t take none of my crap neither. She’s great about supportin’ and understandin’ what goes on out here and it’s a really comfortable thing.”
Perhaps the best thing about his relationship with Amber is that Brantley says being with her, “That house I built in Georgia finally feels like a home.”
