A Chance Meeting
Chris Stapleton and Morgane Hayes first crossed paths in 2003 in Nashville when they were both working as songwriters at neighboring music publishing companies. Morgane admitted to Paste Magazine in 2015, “I kinda did stalk him a little bit. I was friends with his song-plugger and I would go hang out in her office, like, every day. That’s how we hung out for a long time.” Chris later asked Morgane to write a song with him, which became their first date. Their initial meeting was unassuming, but it set the stage for a deep and enduring connection.
Building a Life Together
The couple’s relationship quickly blossomed, and they decided to tie the knot in 2007.

In 2018, they welcomed twin boys, Macon and Samuel, into the world. Parenthood added another layer of joy to their lives, and it’s evident that their family is a top priority for them.
“Some of you may know that we have four children,” Chris said, according to People. “We just had twins, about seven months ago. Now there’s four for us, but we’re gonna make it five!”
