Yellowstone 1883 Stars Faith Hill And Tim McGraw Navigating ‘Rough Patch’

It seems that empty nest syndrome is, indeed, a real thing as Faith Hill and Tim McGraw’s kids all leave the nest.

After 26 years of marriage, Yellowstone 1883 stars Faith Hill and Tim McGraw are struggling. In fact, they are currently suffering a “rough patch” in their long marriage, especially as their kids all leave the nest. Read on to find out more about this long-wed country couple and their marriage.

Yellowstone 1883 stars Faith Hill and Tim McGraw and empty nest syndrome

Right now, Yellowstone 1883 stars, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, both 55, are trying to fix their quarter-century marriage. The country couple first wed in 1996 and has mostly been going strong ever since. However, a source close to the couple recently revealed cracks in their loving relationship.

The main cause of Hill and McGraw’s problems is the proverbial empty nest syndrome, after their three daughters, Gracie, 25, Maggie, 24, and Audrey, 21, left the nest. Now, the girls have moved to Washington DC and New York and are far from home.

Couple ‘snapping at each other’ since girls left home

Anyone whose kids have grown and left the nest can identify with the 1883 stars. Meanwhile, OK! quotes their source as noting, “They’ve been snapping at each other constantly since their girls flew the coop!” In fact, they said, “Their entire marriage has been centered on their daughters.” Meanwhile, the source added:

Being left to their own devices for the first time has been a shock to them – and not in a positive way.

Tim and Faith want to be close to their girls so they can feel like a family again, and hopefully heal the wounds they’ve recently been inflicting on each other.

How did Faith Hill and Tim McGraw meet?

It seems it was country music that initially brought Faith and Tim together. In fact, they met in 1994 at the country Radio Seminar Showcase for new talent in Nashville, Tennessee. At that stage, Hill had just finalized her divorce from Daniel Hill. Meanwhile, McGraw was dating Kristine Donahue at the time.

A couple of years later, on June 26, 1996, Tim asked for Faith’s hand in marriage while up on the stage during his show. Clearly, fans in the audience would have been moved to happy tears by the event. Moreover, McGraw and Hill have collaborated on a number of country albums and went on nationwide tours together.

Hopefully, the country singers and Yellowstone 1883 stars will repair the rift in their marriage and get back to their former loving selves.
