The country star got engaged outside of George Jones’s manor in Tennessee. The country singer posted a photo on her Instagram just before Valentine’s Day on Wednesday showing off her new ring. “4x4xU forever,” the post’s caption read, referencing the title of her hit 2024 song. The “Heart Like A Truck” singer was pictured wearing a long red coat, cowboy hat and bell bottom jeans outside George Jones’s $5.95 million manor in Franklin, Tennessee.
Wilson first confirmed that she was dating Hodges in 2023 during an episode of The Bobby Bones Show. At the time, she told the radio show host that she and the former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback had been together for the last two and a half years. “He's a good dude. He knows what it's like chasing a dream because he's done that for himself,” she said at the time. “He is good as gold, supports me, would never come in between anything that I'm trying to do.”.
“But I guess I'm gonna have to propose to his ass 'cause he ain't proposed to me,” Wilson joked about an engagement at the time. “I think [an engagement] needs to be during a season of our life where we really have the time to, like, enjoy it.”. Wilson also revealed during that episode why Hodges answers to the nickname “Duck,” telling Bones that it came from his college football coach at Samford University in Alabama.
“His college football coach was like, ‘You're one of the best quarterbacks I've ever worked with. And you remind me a lot of one of my favorite quarterbacks I got to work with years ago, and we called him Duck,’” Wilson said. “And so he and the team just kind of started calling him Duck.”. Wilson seemed to predict that the proposal was coming, as she joked last month that this might be the year it would happen.
