Reba McEntire has been singing country love songs for decades, owing to her previous romances as inspiration.

Despite the fact that she is no longer married, the Grammy Award winner is making the most of dating in her sixties.

In 1976, the “Fancy” songstress married her first husband, Charlie Battles. Their marriage, however, did not last, and they divorced in 1987, more than ten years later. Reba then married Narvel Blackstock, her second husband.

What happened to Charlie Battles?

Charlie Battles, a steer wrestler who qualified for the 1974 National Finals Rodeo and later became a successful PRCA stock contractor, died on April 21 at his home in Sulphur, La., after a long illness.

Is Reba’s first husband Charlie Battles still alive?

Reba moved to Nashville, Tennessee after selling their Oklahoma property. In 1989, Reba married Narvel Blackstock (they split in 2015), and Charlie married Donna Granger in 1998. Charlie died in 2013 after suffering a devastating stroke in 2006.
