Jake’s latest single is called “Real Life,” and it seems that his real life isn’t so great at the moment. In a recent interview Jake opens up about his marriage.
A lot of celebrities try to paint a perfect picture of their lives, but Jake Owen has decided to be honest when it comes to his marriage and the troubles they’re facing. In an interview with a syndicated radio show, America’s Morning Show, Jake opened up about his marriage and how he and Lacey have been struggling.
“Right now—and I haven’t said this a lot lately because I didn’t think this was anyone’s business other than mine and my wife’s—but my wife and I, for the last few months, have really been having a hard time and struggling with communication, and literally talking about divorce and all kinds of stuff.”
It goes to show that celebrities are like the rest of us and have struggles.
“And I don’t want to talk about that, but after long conversations for days and weeks, part of us talking about it and getting it out there and letting people know that we’re the same as they are, we have problems, too, it made us feel better talking about the things we’ve kept from each other.”
Jake and Lacey met when she was the girl on his “Eight Second Ride” video. She’s starred in several videos since then and the couple wed in May of 2012. They have a daughter, Olive Pearl, that was born in November 2012.
Marriage is hard enough; but I imagine that being married to celebrity, especially a musician, is extra hard. Let’s cross our fingers for them
