Garth Brooks admits he ‘sucked’ at being husband, ‘horrible’ at being dad: ‘Had to get my s--t together’
foxnews.comGarth Brooks is opening up about his marriage and confessed he wasn’t the best husband. During a recent interview, Brooks reflected on his relationship with his family and said he knew he had to make some changes. "I sucked at being a husband, I was horrible at it.
I was horrible at being a dad. I had to get my s--t together," Brooks told Billboard. While being in the spotlight for years, the 61-year-old admitted he wasn't making positive headlines early on in his career, saying he would’ve had a tough time being in the public eye if social media had existed back then. "I was on the front page of the USA Today for being a bad husband and man," Brooks recalled. "I’d have never survived that if there had been social media, ever." After being married for nearly two decades to Trisha Yearwood, 58, the country star shared the secret to their lasting relationship. "… I will tell you this, the person you’re with [does make] a huge difference in your life," he remarked.
The country music superstars have been married since 2005, and Yearwood is a "bonus mom" to Brooks’ three children: Taylor, August and Allie from his marriage to Sandy Mahl.
Yearwood revealed that Brooks was "flirting pretty hard" with her over text before they walked the red carpet at the ACM Awards in May.
