Ty Herndon and Matt Collum
Ty Herndon, the famous country singer behind the hit "What Mattered Most", definitely knows what matters most now. After two marriages with two different women, Herndon finally understood that his perfect woman actually came in the form of a perfect man. Luckily he found him and in 2014, the country singer came out and made his first appearance with his now long-term boyfriend, Matt Collum. In fact, the singer even boldly re-released the hit song using male pronouns!
This has now made him one of the leading figures in Nashville's LGBTQ community. The couple, who are still devout Christians don't believe that they should have any issues reconciling their faith with their orientation, saying that “we get to choose who we love, and that includes God, and He loves us back.” While they may not be currently married, there have been some serious talks.

The multi-talented Dancing with the Stars champion and Emmy nominee has had a pretty solid career in country music too. Hough, who has worked with the country greats like Reba McEntire, Eddie Rabbit, and Brad Paisley had the number one country album in 2008. Lord knows how she did it, but somehow she made the leap to the world of hockey and met her beau, NHL player Brooks Laich. According to US Weekly, it was her DWTS costar Teddy Sears who introduced them.
A few dates in the two both seemed to pretty hooked on another. So much so that two years late, by July 2017, they were married. Things seemed rosy for some time but this year, it looked like things may have taken a turn. Cross your fingers, we hope they make it through!
Gabi Dugal and Scotty McCreery
