Lainey Wilson Shares Behind-The-Scenes Details Of Her Engagement

Lainey Wilson recently got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Devlin “Duck” Hodges. They met in 2021, but they didn’t publicly share their relationship until a few years later.

They got engaged on February 12, 2025, after dating for four years. In a recent interview, Wilson shared behind-the-scenes insights from that special day, mentioning that she had a feeling she would receive a proposal.

“So, I had talked myself into thinking he was going to do it that day. And then I called my sister, I said, ‘He’s going to propose to me today.’ And she was like, ‘I gotta go.’ ”

She talked herself out of it, fearing disappointment if it didn’t happen.

“And then I talked myself out of it because I thought, ‘Man I sure would be upset if I talked myself into this and that don’t happen.'”

On February 12, Hodges surprised the “4x4xU” singer by proposing at George Jones’ Former $5.9 Million Estate. She said,

“And then as we [pulled] up, I realized that there were different plans. He had it all set up. He had the candles and the picture frames, and it could not have been more perfect.”

Lainey Wilson Talks Wedding Plans

During the same interview, Wilson shared some of the first details she had about her upcoming nuptials.

According to the singer, it is very little. She shared that they “hadn’t even started planning.” 

One thing she did share is that she wants a simple wedding. Stating:

“We really need to sit down and make that a priority. But I’m sure that it’ll be something that’s just very, very simple, you know?” 

The singer confirmed she will not be walking down the aisle in her signature bell bottoms. In an interview, Wilson shared that she will be more traditional on the special day.

“I’m going to wear a dress,” she said. “I hadn’t done the whole dress shopping. We haven’t even picked a date or anything like that. We got some time, but I figured, you know what? I hadn’t worn a dress for him yet, and I guess that would be the day to do it.”
