2000s

As the 2000s unfolded, the Hollywood star remained in the public eye, but not always for his acting. In March 2009, a report surfaced that the actor, married to model Brandi Glanville, was allegedly involved in an affair with country singer LeAnn Rimes, his co-star at the time.

In response, the actor released a statement denying the accusations, stating, “It is a fabricated story that is using random snapshots as connective tissue to create a scandalous relationship.”

At the time, Rimes was still married to her husband of seven years, Dean Sheremet. A friend of Rimes commented, “There are some feelings there, but it’s too early to tell if it’s going to develop and if she’s done with her marriage.”

After reports surfaced that Rimes and the handsome actor were allegedly having an affair, a source revealed that the country singer was no longer living with her husband. By August 2009, news of their separation broke days after Glanville confirmed she and her husband were also splitting.

Court papers revealed that the Hollywood star had filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences and seeking joint custody of their two sons. His request for spousal support made headlines, though his manager quickly clarified that it was a clerical error and would be corrected.

While the scandal rocked both families, it also marked the beginning of a new chapter in the actor’s personal life, one that would see him moving forward with Rimes.

Despite the media frenzy surrounding their relationship, the Hollywood star and Rimes were ready to take their relationship to the next level. In 2010, the pair got engaged, confirming rumors that had been circulating for months.

“Yes, they were engaged over the holidays and are very happy,” Rimes’ representative stated. The couple, who spent Christmas in Los Angeles with close family and friends, celebrated the occasion with an intimate gathering.

2011

By April 2011, the ’90s heartthrob and Rimes took the final step in their journey together by tying the knot. In a surprise twist, the couple invited their closest friends and family to what they described as an engagement party, only to reveal that they were actually getting married.

The intimate ceremony, held at a private home in California, was attended by around 40 guests, including the actor’s sons from his previous marriage. Rimes, who wore a Reem Acra gown, exchanged personalized vows with her groom in what was described as a heartfelt and emotional ceremony.

“LeAnn and Eddie were happily married today, surrounded by their closest family and friends,” a representative for the couple confirmed.

After years of public scrutiny and speculation, the couple was finally able to begin their lives together as husband and wife. Rimes expressed her excitement for the future, stating, “I’m looking forward to settling down, settling into our life.”

2012

While the couple’s personal life seemed to be on an upward trajectory, 2012 brought a few challenges. Rimes’ representative revealed that the singer had voluntarily checked into an in-patient treatment facility to deal with anxiety and stress.

The decision was made to develop better coping mechanisms for the pressures of her personal and professional life. “While privacy isn’t expected, it’s certainly appreciated,” the representative’s statement read.

Rimes later opened up about the toll that her mental health struggles had taken on her marriage. “At one point, there was such a weight on my marriage,” she shared, acknowledging that her battles with anxiety and depression had affected those closest to her.

It was during this period that she realized the importance of getting professional help, recognizing that she had been relying too heavily on her husband and family to make her feel better.

In 2020, Rimes opened up about the unique dynamic of their blended family. She admitted that while it wasn’t always easy, the key to their success was allowing everyone to express their feelings without taking things personally.

Rimes explained that although the process was challenging, it was worth it. The couple’s blended family, while unconventional, thrived on mutual respect and love. “Nobody’s fighting, nobody’s doing anything weird… it’s interesting, the kids are older now, it’s fun. The kids are happy and that’s all that matters,” she said.
