Kellie Pickler and Kyle Jacobs were absolute soulmates and it was clear in the way she spoke about him. According to Entertainment Tonight, the country singer once shared on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” “He’s so amazing. He has showed me what love is, what love really is. I’ve never been treated so respectfully. I’ve never been treated so loved the way he loves me.” They had been together for over 10 years before he tragically died in 2023.
Now that it has been over five months since Jacobs died, Pickler is finally speaking out on the tragic incident. The “American Idol” alum released a statement to People saying, “One of the most beautiful lessons my husband taught me was in a moment of a crisis, if you don’t know what to do, ‘do nothing, just be still.’ I have chosen to heed his advice.” Pickler knew that after she lost her husband, she needed some time to herself, but all the love and support she received did not go unnoticed. She shared, “Thank you to my family, friends, and supporters, for the countless letters, calls, and messages…It has truly touched my soul and it’s helping me get through the darkest time in my life.” The country singer finished the statement by revealing she will have an “intimate memorial” for her husband as she continues to mourn her loss.
