REPORT: Reba McEntire’s Ex-Husband Narvel Blackstock is Dating Her Best Friend After Their Divorce
Well, that’s awkward.
According to Page Six, Reba McEntire’s ex-husband Narvel Blackstock has a new lady in his life following their divorce — Reba’s best friend!
The 59-year-old television producer has fallen in love with Laura Putty Stroud, who is a good friend of the former duo, sources revealed to the entertainment news outlet earlier this week.
Reba, 60, and Laura attended a Katy Perry concert in 2014, where the two posed together happily wearing multicolored wigs. “@starletonent @lpstroud at @katyperry having a blast!!!!” the country singer captioned a photo of herself with Laura and another, unidentified friend at the show on Instagram.
“They are very serious,” an insider said of Laura and Narvel’s relationship. “It’s unclear when they started dating. The word on the street is that they’re getting married.”
Narvel and Reba — who tied the knot in 1989 — confirmed their divorce after 26 years of marriage in December 2015. The two are parents to 25-year-old son, Shelby. Narvel also has three children from a previous relationship, one of which is son Brandon Blackstock, who is married to Kelly Clarkson.
