Tyler Hubbard, Hayley Hubbard’s relationship timeline
Tyler Hubbard and his wife, Hayley Hubbardare a country couple that is meant to be, with a love story that has even inspired several songs.
“The truth was me and Tyler both had rough days that day,” Bebe Rexha told reporters at CMA Fest in 2018 about working with the former Florida Georgia Line crooner on their duet “Meant to Be.” “Tyler told me he was having a rough day, so when he came back from dinner in the elevator, his wife said to him, ‘If it has to be this way, it will be.’ Not knowing they were pregnant at the same time. It’s crazy what happened. When the song started to grow, they had a baby and now it’s just amazing.
Tyler – who sang in Florida Georgia Line next Brian Kelly until their breakup in September 2022 – and Hayley have been together since early 2013.
“When I quit my job at Merrill Lynch and was about to move back to California, a friend of mine told me to pray for the move and that he didn’t think I should leave. So I did. I asked God to make it clear,” she recalled on her now-defunct blog, the Vogue journey, referring to Tyler. “The next day when I signed my Cali lease, my boss came to me and said he would double my salary if I stayed. I looked up and almost laughed in his face. I had gotten my clarity. A month later, that same friend, who is now my fiancée, gave me my last first kiss. Boy, am I glad I stayed.”
A year later, Tyler proposed to Hayley on a romantic helicopter ride. They married in July 2015 in Hayley’s native Sun Valley, Idaho.
While raising three little ones and balancing thriving careers – Tyler released his debut solo LP in January 2023 while Hayley has found success as a lifestyle blogger and podcaster – they have remained happily in love.
“It’s part of connecting,” the Grammy nominee said of the couple’s relationship during a March 2021 episode of Hayley’s podcast “Meaning Full Living.” “Intimacy is part of a strong marriage, and you know, a strong marriage leads to strong parenting. It is important. [We began] make that a priority and just make time to connect. … I remember some nights we just didn’t have sex, we were like ‘No, let’s just watch a movie here’ and hold hands or kind of hold each other. Just a way to connect. We’ve been pretty conscious about it.”
Nearly three years earlier, the duo revealed exclusively to Us in September 2018 that their typical date nights ranged from cooking at home in their pajamas to “putting all the clothes on and having a fun night out.”
