Denise Jackson

If you're a fan of country music, you probably know Alan Jackson (born 17 October 1958) probably? Well, Singer and Songwriter Alan is one of the media industry's most famous faces who earned his place in country music history. But the subject of today is about his wife Denise Jackson, whom he had married in 1979.

Denise Jackson was born in 1960 in Newnan, Georgia to the late parents Dan and Nell Jackson. As far as her education, she completed her BS degree at West Georgia College. Likewise, she grew up along with her twin brother Danny, a sister Jane and Ron.  

Four Decades of Marriage with Country Music Star Alan

Well, Denise Jackson and her life partner Alan Jackson have long been one of the favorite couples for country music fans. At first, as teenagers, they had their first contact in their home town of Newnan, Ga. They enrolled at the same university at that time where their love blossomed even more.

Denise and Alan started dating and eventually shared their wedding vows on December 15, 1979. At the time of the celebration, Denise was 19 and Alan was 21. More to that, Denise didn't even change her name after tying the knot because her maiden name was also Jackson.

Since then, the duo who are in the early '60s hasn’t looked back yet. In fact, Denise was instrumental in helping her husband achieve his country music stardom dreams. The year 2019 has recently heralded its 40th wedding anniversary and four-decade-long love story.

Once So Close to Divorce

In 1998 the pair nearly went through a breakup after 18 years of marriage. The Singer has actually had an affair that rocked their conjugal relationship. Despite such controversy, the pair as of now is very happy together just like Jenna Black and her hubby Tyler Joseph.

Due to personal differences, things weren't quite well between the two. Although Alan was busy with his presentations, Denise was restless. Jackson later says, People: 

"We were just kids when we started out," "We didn't ever have the chance to fall in love as adults and to learn who you are before making a commitment. I think we lost some of that original feeling. I did anyway." 

In 1999 the pair reconciled again, after separating. And they concentrated on counseling, a strong Christian foundation for their relationship, bouncing back from the painful situation which hurt their families.

Aside from that, Denise Jackson was diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and this really brought them closer to each other. Alan stood by her side, and never left her. Luckily their love for each other and with God made Denise cancer-free.
