Garth Brooks lists ‘favorite thing’ about woman before sexual assault allegations arise

Country music legend Garth Brooks and his longtime wife Trisha Yearwood opened up about their strong marriage before he was accused of sexual assault.

“The best part about becoming Ms. Yearwood’s partner is the good times, but also going through the bad times together because it makes you one and tests your courage,” Brooks told People magazine.

“But what you find is that you have a love that will last beyond this life. I found her in the last life. I will find her in the next life,” he added.
