Inside Reba McEntire's Messy Split From Narvel Blackstock

May 2024 · 1 minute read

Sadly, Reba McEntire's divorce from Narvel Blackstock reads much like her 1987 album, "The Last One to Know."

"Well, the divorce was not my idea," she revealed in a 2016 interview with CMT host Cody Alan. "I didn't want it in any shape, form, or fashion." To make matters worse, mere months after the split sources claimed that Blackstock had already moved on... with a mutual friend of the former couple, Laura Putty Stroud. "They are very serious," an insider told Page Six about the unlikely pair. "It's unclear when they started dating. The word on the street is that they're getting married." YIKES. 

Fortunately, however, it doesn't appear McEntire was willing to let the revelation keep her down for long. "The affair hit her like a ton of bricks, but through the grace of God, her friends and family — and a few boxes of tissues — Reba got through the darkest of times," a source told Star magazine. "We heard Laura wasn't the only woman Narvel was seeing... but Reba is a person who forgives no matter how much it hurts."
