Before coming out, Maren has been a vocal ally to the queer community throughout her career in country-pop.
In 2022, she called out the wife of the country singer Jason Aldean for transphobic comments, commenting: “It’s so easy to, like, not be a scumbag human? Sell your clip-ins and zip it, Insurrection Barbie.”
The news comes following Maren filing for divorce from her husband Ryan Hurd in October 2023, citing irreconcilable differences.
The former couple began dating in 2015, married in 2018 and welcomed their son Hayes, now four years old, in March 2020.
Congratulations to Maren for sharing her news with the world – and happy Pride!
