Garth Brooks says wife Trisha Yearwood is ‘partner’ through ‘good' and 'bad times’ days before rape claims

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

"My favorite thing about getting to be Ms. Yearwood’s partner is the good times, but also going through the bad times together, because that makes you one and it tests your mettle," Brooks shared with People magazine.

"But what you find out is you have a love that's going to last beyond this lifetime. I found her in the last life. I'll find her in the next one," he added.
