As a dedicated follower of country music and the enchanting Lainey Wilson, I can’t help but be captivated by her journey – both musically and personally. Her relationship with Devlin “Duck” Hodges has added another layer to the rich tapestry that is her life. It’s refreshing to see a star who keeps it real, not only in her music but also in her love life.


Recently, the actress Lainey Wilson from Yellowstone shared insights into her past hidden romance and the reasons why she’s yet to get engaged to her boyfriend.

During her interview for Taste of Country Nights On Demand radio show, she openly discussed her delight in revealing more about her personal life to her followers. Previously guarded about her relationship with Devlin “Duck” Hodges, she admitted that she was testing his commitment by asking if he would be sticking around. She jokingly mentioned, “He’s not leaving and I’m not letting him go just yet.”

In May 2023, the country artist made their relationship official at the ACM Awards by having Hodges accompany her as her date. Earlier, it was unveiled that they had been secretly dating for more than two and a half years. On The Bobby Bones Show, she shared that she always shows him her songs before playing them for anyone else. It turns out that the NFL quarterback has already listened to many of her compositions, including some unheard love songs penned especially for him.

Lainey Wilson discussed her and her boyfriend’s future plans as well. She emphasized that they aren’t yet engaged, even jokingly suggesting she might have to pop the question herself. She elaborated, “I believe an engagement should happen at a stage in our lives when we can fully appreciate it. Currently, it seems premature.” Since their first appearance on the red carpet at the ACM Awards, they’ve attended multiple award shows together.

During an interview with Fox News Digital at the CMT Music Awards in April, the singer expressed her joy at having her partner with her. She stated that he was one of her main supporters, always ready to offer a congratulatory slap on the hand.

In terms of music, Wilson’s song “Out of Oklahoma” was showcased in the recent movie “Twisters,” starring Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar Jones. Contrastingly, her album “Whirlwind” offers tunes ideal for long road trips across the country and casual dive bar settings. Notably, earlier this year, she launched Bell Bottoms Up, a multi-level establishment that includes a bar, Cajun restaurant, and live music venue, right in downtown Nashville.
