Jason Aldean and his team are mourning the loss of Aldean’s personal security guard who died August 25, 2021. Ryan Fleming, aka, “Rhino” has been Aldean’s security guard since the country star rose to fame. Aldean knew Rhino when he was 18 and working as a bouncer at his local bar. He later went on to join the Sheriff’s Department before Aldean asked him to join his crew. He was even the one to risk his life and pull Aldean from the stage during the Route 91 Shooting on October 1, 2017.

Aldean bared his heart in a post on Instagram along with photos showing moments of the two of them together.

“When it came time for me to hire a security guy that I knew would always look out for me and my family, There was no question for me that person was Rhino,” the singer stated. “He came out and traveled the world with us and for years if u saw me, Rhino wasn’t too far away.”
