Chris Stapleton’s 2025 ACM Performance

This year, Chris Stapleton took the stage with his stunning wife, Morgane Stapleton, and sang a sultry duet. The precious couple took the stage with very little fanfare; it was simply them and the band. The lights were dim, and the couple spent the entire song looking into each other’s eyes. It was as if the audience was not there as they sang in perfect harmony.

The pair performed Chris’s 2023 release “It Takes A Woman.”  

The song’s beautiful lyrics clearly communicate the couple’s precious relationship.

“Whenever I’m broken
Honey, you heal me
When I’m in the dark
You are the light

When I get lost
You know right where to find me
When I have my doubts
You make me believe”
