When Miranda Lambert married a New York City cop last year everyone wondered how did they meet?
It was rumored that they first crossed paths on the set of Good Morning America in November 2018 when she was making an appearance on the show with The Pistol Annies

Turns out it’s true! He was on patrol that day and they did meet at that time but neither made the first move.
Miranda told the New York Times she was doing media for the release of the Pistol Annies’ Interstate Gospel album when Angaleena Presley and Ashley Monroe spotted Miranda’s future husband on duty.
“My girlfriends, the Annies, saw him and knew I might be ready to hang out with someone. They invited him to our show behind my back. They plucked him for me. My security guy Tom, he was in on it too. He said to me, ‘He’s here. And he’s pretty.'”
Within a few months the couple were married, but they kept it a secret until just after Valentine’s Day, when she shared a photo on Instagram.
“Now the Pistol Annies have three husbands, two ex-husbands, three children, a stepson and 23 animals. We’ve done a lot in nine years!” she says.
