Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood’s daughters grew up quickly. The children of the «Friends in Low Places» singer were born from his first marriage to his college sweetheart, Sandy Mahl. They got married in 1986, and their first child was born in 1992. The second daughter was born in 1994, followed by the youngest in 1996. Their marriage lasted 13 years before the couple separated in 1999 and filed for divorce in 2000.
When Trisha married the singer of «Much Too Young» in 2005 and accepted his children as her own, they were teenagers. «They allowed me to learn their way and allowed me to be a third parent in their lives», - Trisha told PEOPLE magazine about becoming a stepmother. «They were a gift that I needed. I didn’t know how much children bring into your life until I had the opportunity to be part of their lives». Now they are three adult women with their own careers and lives.
Learn all about Garth’s children below.
Taylor Mayne Pearl Brooks was born on July 8, 1992. She was named after music legend James Taylor and Nashville comedian Minnie Pearl. Taylor managed to stay mostly out of the spotlight, despite having two famous parents. She graduated from Oklahoma University with a degree in history in 2016. She then obtained a master’s degree from Vanderbilt University in 2020.
Taylor was Garth’s first experience in parenting. Many were surprised when the Kennedy Center honoree put his music career on hold to fully dedicate himself to parenting after Taylor’s birth. «People said, 'How could you walk away from music?'» Garth told PEOPLE magazine in 2015. «But being a father — nothing compares to that».
He added that children «are the greatest joy and the greatest sorrow you will ever have. They say as long as your kids are healthy, you can handle anything else. If they get a 'D,' if they fail, you’ll get through it. You can introduce them to the Lord, teach them manners, teach them to believe in themselves, but the truth is, they will be who they will be».
August Anna Brooks was born on May 13, 1994. From an early age, she knew she wanted to dedicate her life to a career in law. After high school, she attended the University of Oklahoma and began working at a law firm. August also became a mother in 2013 when she gave birth to her daughter Karalynn at 19. Karalynn’s father is her high school sweetheart and current husband, Chance Michael Russell. She gave birth to her second daughter, Gwendolyn, in 2016.
Garth highly praised his daughter’s parenting skills. «No offense to my mom, or Mrs. Yearwood’s mom, or Sandy’s mom, I’m not sure any of them could hold a candle to my daughter», - he said during an interview with local radio station KICKS 105.5. He also expressed his fondness for his granddaughter Karalynn, who was three years old. «It always turns out that this child is the glue that holds the whole family together», - he added. «She's a little doll».
The youngest daughter of the «If Tomorrow Never Comes» singer, Allie Colleen Brooks, was born on July 28, 1996. She clarified on her Instagram that «Colleen» is pronounced and was likely inspired by Dolly Parton’s song «Jolene». Like her middle sister, Allie is happily married. She married Jonathan Roberts in 2018.
Unlike her two older sisters, Allie is not afraid to be in the spotlight. In fact, like her father, she aspires to a career in music. She began her music career after graduating from college at Belmont University in 2018, as she promised her father. Despite just starting her music career, she has already achieved some success. Her single «Ain't the Only Hell (My Momma Raised)» made it to the Top 40 charts on Mediabase in 2020, and she released her debut album «Stones» in 2021
