Miranda Lambert is fighting for her marriage after the husband’s scandal earlier this year.
It’s not an anonymous statement. The country singer spoke about it herself.
She then followed up with a romantic date with her husband, something no one expected!
Miranda’s enigmatic comments on the subject seem to be a thing of the past.
Now, she compares herself to a “ninja” when it comes to her marriage.
How is Miranda Lambert fighting for her marriage?
Miranda Lambert appeared as a guest on Bunnie Xo’s dumb blonde podcast on Monday, August 19th.
During the interview, Lambert shared what she had told her husband Brendan McLoughlin.
“I told him, like, ‘I’m a ninja for you, and I’ll fight anything with you,’” Miranda Lambert revealed.
“And I feel like that’s really important,” Miranda Lambert then expressed.
“And I think, you know, as you go through other relationships, you learn from those things,” she said after reflection.
“And you learn about communication,” Miranda Lambert observed. “And what you did and what you didn’t do.”
From the beginning, Miranda Lambert knew what she wanted from this marriage
“And so, I think I went into this marriage with a strong sense of what I want,” Miranda Lambert described.
She then continued: “And what I want to be to someone and the partner I want to be.”
Part of that, the country singer noted, was communicating instead of “holding resentment.”
Resentment builds over time and leads to emotional distancing.
“You can’t have emotional and physical distance,” Miranda Lambert then emphasized.
She downplayed: “This isn’t going to work.” TRUE. A strong emotional bond can survive physical distance. Without that connection, people will drift apart.
What exactly did Brendan McLoughlin do?
The reason fans are hoping to see Miranda Lambert fighting for her marriage is because of her husband’s scandal.
In June 2024, her husband Brendan, 32, appeared to be flirting with a group of women at the Casa Rosa bar in Nashville. Their perhaps overly friendly antics went viral on TikTok.
Yes, this is the bar that Miranda Lambert herself owns. If you’re going to cheat on your wife (which no one involved has suggested he did), this is not the place to do it.
Some of the women who appeared in these videos introduced himself on social media to insist that Brendan had done nothing wrong. No one had hooked up or was trying to hook up. And apparently the flirtatious gestures—like touching the face—were simply bad habits in a noisy establishment.
Maybe so. But it wasn’t a good look for a married man.
Especially for a man whose wife’s most famous song is (arguably) “Before He Cheats.” You really want to be on your best behavior. Don’t embarrass your celebrity wife.
Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin walk the VMAs red carpet
And then something completely unexpected happened just a few weeks after that.
Miranda accepted the invitation to present the awards and was seen walking the red carpet with none other than her husband.
The two looked happy enough, holding hands and wearing matching black suits. Well, not totally matching; Miranda made hers sexier with a stunning blue bralette and no top!
Maybe it’s okay then!
