Not all famous couples begin their relationships in the spotlight. While some meet at fancy galas or on film sets, others have more traditional beginnings. That is the case with Miranda Lambert and her husband, Brendan McLoughlin. This lovestruck duo started with a very old-school romance.

Miranda Lambert’s Husband: Where It All Began
Fox News shared that the star opened up on a podcast about her and Brendan’s early days. Miranda Lambert first met her husband on the set of Good Morning America back in 2019. Taste of Country added that Miranda and her band, the Pistol Annies, were there to promote their new album. It was there that she and fellow bandmate Angaleena Presley first spotted Brendan McLoughlin. It is also where they gave him the nickname “hot cop.”
From there, the two hatched a plan. They invited Brendan to one of their shows. The catch: They only gave him a single ticket—no plus one for Miranda Lambert’s future husband. On the podcast, Lambert admits, “He came by himself. We met up after, hung out and talked. There wasn’t an agenda… we just talked and kept in touch.”
Old School Love
When Miranda Lambert said “keep in touch,” most assumed they exchanged emails or phone numbers. However, this star had a different plan. She decided she wanted to be pen pals. Miranda Lambert shared her husband’s reaction to this intimate suggestion.
She told Fox News, “We wrote each other literal letters, like old-school. I was like, ‘Do you wanna be pen pals?’ He was like, ‘Letters with a pen?’…He’s eight years younger, so that was really mind-blowing to him.”
Despite the age gap and the shock of this old-school romance quiche, Miranda Lambert’s husband agreed to it. Now, they are smitten with one another and happily married. Although they come from different backgrounds—she from Texas and he from New York—the pair have a lot in common.
One of Miranda’s favorite things about her husband is that he is not a ‘yes’ person. He will call her out and tell her how things are if he needs to. What a wonderful and romantic way for these two lovebirds to have met, and clearly, it’s a match made in heaven.
