Jason Aldean and Brittany Aldean's Relationship Timeline

Country strong! Jason Aldean‘s relationship with wife Brittany Aldean started with a scandal — and the couple has continued to spark controversy over the years.

The “Dirt Road Anthem” artist had been married to Jessica Ussery for more than 10 years when he was caught getting cozy with Brittany at a bar in September 2012. He issued a public statement about what went down with the aspiring singer, who was a contestant on American Idol season 11, saying he “screwed up” and “acted inappropriately.”

Though he added that he was sorry for “embarrassing my family and myself,” he filed for divorce from Ussery in April 2013, shortly after Us Weekly broke the news of the pair’s split.

Jason — who shares two daughters with Ussery — went on to marry Brittany in 2015. The couple then welcomed two children of their own.
