Maren Morris, at the age of 33, filed for divorce on October 2, 2023, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.

A Musical Love Story

What began as a professional collaboration soon turned into a deep friendship before blossoming into a romantic relationship. They officially started dating in 2015, with Hurd proposing two years later. The couple exchanged vows in a Nashville wedding ceremony in March 2018.
Making Music and Marriage Work
The couple’s love for music played a significant role in their relationship. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly just a year ago, Morris expressed how music was intertwined in their love story.

The couple strived to maintain a balance between their careers and relationship.
Welcoming Son Hayes
Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd welcomed their first child, a son named Hayes, in March 2020. During the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, Morris spoke about how Hayes was a source of joy and distraction during a time when touring was not possible.
Musical Collaborations
Before the divorce, the couple collaborated on several songs together, including Hurd’s 2021 ballad “Chasing After You” and Morris’ 2022 single “I Can’t Love You Any More.” Additionally, Hurd was a vocal supporter of Morris during a highly publicized feud with Jason and Brittany Aldean in the past.
