CURRENT SINGLE: “You Didn’t”
Brett Young and his wife Taylor will celebrate their fourth wedding anniversary on November 3rd. Even though their love story started 14 years ago, there was a two-year period when they broke up and weren’t even speaking to each other, but Brett thinks that break-up is the reason their marriage is so solid now.
Brett Young – relationship timeline :56
“Me and Taylor, I would say our first date was the week of Thanksgiving, 2008. And Taylor’s a little bit younger than me. At the time she was still in college when we met. And I don’t think we ever questioned our relationship, but we were never kind of on the same page timing wise. And so, we stayed together, I mean, we were together for over six years, up until I even moved to Nashville. And then we took a little two-year break. I think we both felt like it probably wasn’t over but we weren’t even speaking to each other because, you know, there were still feelings there. And when we got back in touch, it was very clear that we were on the same page. We even had a very intentional conversation about like, ‘Hey, we’re not interested in dating again, quote, unquote. If we’re doing this we’re getting married, we’re starting a family. There’s gonna be no question marks at the end of this one. And as much as you don’t ever go into anything saying like, ‘I hope this thing breaks and I hope we’re sad, and I hope we’re apart for a little while because it’ll make us stronger.’ Obviously that’s not the ideal situation, but we needed it. And it brought us to a place where we needed to be so that we could be where we are now.“
