Georgette Jones, daughter of late country music stars Tammy Wynette and George Jones, recalls Nashville’s answer to Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.
"A couple of weeks before my mom passed away, we had a long heart-to-heart talk," the couple’s daughter, Georgette Jones, told Fox News Digital. "We spoke about what happened in our lives and regrets. She spoke about my dad and said that of course, he would always be the love of her life. She cared for him very much. She said it was unfortunate that at the time they were married, my dad had a love-hate relationship with Nashville." Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.
"He loved making music, but he hated the business aspect of Nashville," the fellow singer-songwriter shared. "My mom just wanted to be in Nashville. She was so happy to finally make it and feel like she was getting established… And my dad was just sick of it. I know that had a large part to do with some of their anxieties and difficulties as a couple. My dad wanted to go away as far from there as possible. And my mom just wanted to keep pushing and go bigger."
