Alabama fans of country music icon Garth Brooks are following closely as recent news unfolds about the singer. On October 4, 2024, People Magazinereported that Trisha Yearwood, Brooks’ wife, sold their Tennessee mansion just one day before Brooks was hit with serious allegations of rape and sexual assault. The lawsuit was filed by his former hairstylist and makeup artist, raising questions in the world of country music.
The 6,553-square-foot home, featuring five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, sold for $3.334 million, according to Realtor.com, Yearwood, 60, originally purchased the mansion in 2000, five years before she and Brooks tied the knot in 2005. The timing of the sale has stirred curiosity, as it came just one day before the allegations against Brooks became public.
In response to the lawsuit, an anonymous source spoke to US Weekly, expressing shock at the accusations against the 62-year-old country star. "He was the last person in country music people would think of as acting inappropriately sexually. Trisha and Garth always seem so in love when they're together," the insider said. The source emphasized the couple’s strong bond, often seen holding hands and acting as a loving team.
The insider also praised Brooks for his kindness and humility, noting that he makes an effort to connect with everyone he meets. "Garth always remembers everyone's name he works with and most he interacts with," they explained. "Garth makes it a point to introduce himself to everyone he can when he enters an arena. He will make friends with people in all levels of jobs, he's kind to everyone."
Brooks is also known for going out of his way to make people feel special. The source continued, "Garth often sends gifts to his superfans on their birthdays and flowers to hospitals if his staff members have a sick relative. He remembers their stories and follows up, even a year later."
Despite the positive image painted by those close to Brooks, the singer has taken legal action to defend himself. In response to the lawsuit, Brooks filed a response to prevent the hairstylist from sharing her account further.
In a statement with People, Brooks claims that "for the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars."
As Alabama residents, many fans are waiting to see how this legal battle will play out, especially those who have followed Brooks’ long-standing career in country music. The accusations have left fans divided, as they reflect on the star's public persona versus the allegations made against him.
Stay tuned as the story develops, with Alabama fans keeping a close eye on the legal proceedings surrounding Garth Brooks.
