Religion
Christianity
Miranda Lambert was raised Christian. She is frequently seen sporting a crucifix necklace and invokes God and Jesus in many of her song lyrics and on her social media sites. And, she seems to still be a Christian. Nevertheless, Lambert isn’t above calling out Christians when she feels they are being hypocritical or judgmental.
She also criticized Catholics on Twitter for being against birth control: “If your religion does not allow birth control and u have more than 4 kids. get a new religion!”
Her song “Heart Like Mine” shows annoyance at judgmental Christians who would frown on her way of life when she believes Jesus would not: “‘Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine/ I bet we’d get along just fine/ He could calm a storm and heal the blind/ And I bet He’d understand a heart like mine.”
Despite these criticisms, Lambert’s faith still shines through in songs like “Mama, I’m Alright,” where she asks Jesus to watch over her worried mother.

Boyfriend and Dating History
Jeff Allen McManus (2002–2005)
Blake Shelton (2010–2015)
Miranda and Blake met back in 2006 at the CMT 100 Greatest Duets concert. They weren’t just performing-they were vibing in a way that everyone could see. I mean, you know that feeling when you just click with someone? That’s how it was for them. After that, it didn’t take long before they started dating, and then suddenly they were country music’s most talked-about couple.
Fast forward to May 2010, and things got real. They made their relationship public on May 9th, and just some days later, on May 14th, Blake asked the question. Just think about how that went: Blake-with his cowboy hat on, no less-is asking Miranda’s daddy for his daughter’s hand in marriage. It’s just like out of a movie, right? They became that powerhouse couple everyone wanted to root for, both of them balancing their rising careers while, at the same time, trying to figure out how to be together in the spotlight.
They then tied the knot in a Texas-sized celebration on May 14, 2011. Picture this: Miranda walking down the aisle in her mom’s wedding dress, adding that sweet and sentimental touch to an already beautiful day. Well, over 500 guests attended to celebrate, including other big names in country music. It wasn’t a wedding, it was one of those events, an affair that people would keep talking about for years. Miranda even said she felt like the luckiest girl in the world, marrying her best friend, which is something all of us wish to feel someday.
Of course, through their marriage, they not only shared a house, but their music too. They collaborated on the songs, probably the most emotional being “Over You,” a song Blake wrote for the loss of his brother. It’s one of those songs that can just hit right in the heart. You can tell this brought them closer to having the ability to be so open with their deepest feelings through their music. Like writing the soundtrack to their love story.
But as much as we love a good love story, this one didn’t have a happy ending. And the pressures of fame, rumors of cheating, constant scrutiny by the public began to wear on them. Imagine being in a relationship where the whole world is watching your every move-that’s tough. Miranda felt smothered, and Blake’s tours and other commitments-like his judging gig on The Voice- sometimes made her feel like she was alone. It’s the type of stress that few marriages can withstand. On July 20, 2015, they announced that they were ending things and by the end of the day, they were officially divorced. They attempted to keep the break-up amicable, but it wasn’t exactly easy under all the media scrutiny.
When the dust settled, Miranda and Blake did move on to pastures new. Blake began dating Gwen Stefani, and the two married in July 2021-the most talked-about coupling, at least since they met on The Voice. Miranda found her happy place with NYPD officer Brendan McLoughlin, whom she married in January 2019. Like both of them moved into their new chapters after the storm, very well proving that after heartbreak, there is indeed a new beginning.
Anderson East (2015–2018)
Miranda Lambert’s love affair with Anderson East began just some months after her divorce from Blake Shelton in September 2015. The two kicked off their love affairs on very low keys, but on New Year’s Day 2016, they took to their social media and made the relationship known to the world with this adorable snap captioned, “The snuggle is real.”
In no time, the couple turned fan favorites as they were seen working on songs together and walking the red carpets. He co-wrote two tracks on Miranda’s album The Weight of These Wings, including their duet “Pushin’ Time.” The chemistry was palpable on and off stage as Anderson often joined Miranda out on tour.
The two celebrated milestones, like their two-year anniversary in September 2017. But in April 2018, after almost three years, the couple broke up, in relative silence, with no public statement made about the split. Even with the breakup, time together left its mark on their music and their fanbase.
Evan Felker (2018)
Brendan McLoughlin (2018–Present)
The romance between Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin is one fairytale that kicked off quite well late in 2018. The two met in November 2018 at an instance when Miranda was performing on Good Morning America, and Brendan, an NYPD officer, was on duty for security matters. After the show, it was her bandmates who introduced them to one another, lighting a fire that grew fast.
Their relationship was refreshingly old-fashioned in that they exchanged hand-written letters instead of mere texts, a feature very rarely found in today’s world. It helped them connect on a deep level right from the very beginning. Brendan was eight years younger, yet they connected; Miranda appreciated his forthrightness and honesty.
A few months into their meeting, the two secretly got married on January 26, 2019, at a farm outside Nashville. Miranda later took to social media to share her happiness and introduced the world to Brendan.
It is a life together that merges city and country living-the young son of Brendan welcomed into Miranda’s life, balancing New York with Tennessee. Whether it be through public appearances or sharing their love for animals, like the adoption of Tequila the kitten, these two get stronger day by day.

Net worth 2024
$60 million
As of November 2024, it’s estimated that Miranda Lambert has a net worth of about $60 million. She has made this from various sources, so lets break down her net worth and earnings.
1. Music Sales and Streaming
Miranda Lambert has released several successful albums, including Revolution, Four the Record, Platinum, and Wildcard. Her music sales, including physical albums, digital downloads, and streaming royalties, contribute significantly to her income.
Musicians usually make about $1 to $1.5 per album sold, and Lambert’s have all been, respectively, million-sellers. Streaming-wise, an artist earns about $0.003 to $0.005 per stream. With the number of streams and album copies sold, her overall yearly take on music sales and streaming should clock in anywhere between $2 to $5 million.
2. Concert Tours and Live Performances
Lambert is visible in the concert tours, full of energy, whether it is the ‘Roadside Bars & Pink Guitars’ tour or the ‘Wildcard Tour.’ In fact, one of the most lucrative sources related to being a musician is tours.
Major country singers like Lambert generally gross from $500,000 to $1 million per show. This all depended on the size of the venue and exactly how many tickets had been sold. Her tours usually grossed in the millions with estimated annual earnings from touring amounting to $10 to $20 million.
3. Songwriting and Publishing
All registered songwriters earn a royalty every time any of their songs is played on the radio, used in any movie or T.V. program, or is covered by another performing artist—the result: a consistent, continuous income stream.
The average earnings of a songwriter are approximately 9.1 cents for each play or sale of a song. Publishing income, of a songwriter such as Lambert, is most likely to be over $1 to $3 million per year due to her catalog size and popularity in music.
4. Endorsements and Brand Deals
With her country icon image, Lambert has partnered with brands like Ram Trucks and Cotton Inc.
For celebrities like Lambert, endorsement deals can run well into the millions of dollars. Those endorsement deals could add another $2 million to $4 million a year, if not more, depending on how broad the deals are and the length.
5. Merchandise Sales
Lambert sells products, including merchandise, like branded apparel, accessories, and home accessories through online platforms and at her concerts.
Product sales bring in a substantial amount of cash, as compared to other sources of income, and that too for a particular period. To be precise, Lambert is obligated to generate $1 to 3 million dollars each year from product sales.
6. Business Ventures
Lambert has two business ventures, The Pink Pistol a chain of lifestyle boutiques located in Texas, and Red 55 Winery vineyard, whose wines are sold under brands representing Lambert.
The companies contribute to her income and may make a few hundred thousand dollars to a couple of million dollars per year, depending on sales and how business goes.
7. Television Appearances
Lambert has made appearances in several television series such as in The Voice as a guest mentor. This is not a significant source of her income; however, the appearances add to her income.
TV appearances usually range within tens of thousands of dollars per episode and could cumulatively earn her around several hundred thousand dollars each year.
8. Investments
As most celebrities do, Lambert too would be logically investing in real estate or other businesses. Of course, details are not very well known but earning potential through such investments could be ascertained through service and gain on the value on the holding.
Again, depending on the extent of her investments, this could add a significant variable amount to her annual income.
By putting all these together, one could estimate Miranda Lambert’s annual income at $10 to $30 million, contingent on how well her tours do, how her album sales go, and also how well other ventures go in a particular year.
