Trouble In Paradise
Reba McEntire and her husband at the time, Charlie Battles, were living at his Oklahoma ranch. However, her burgeoning career placed a lot of pressure on their married life. Charlie wanted her to stay home so that she could help around the house, and yet, she kept performing on tours. It was the reason for their numerous arguments, and they called it quits last 1987. Reba McEntire had been asked how she felt about the divorce to which she answered, “I had to pack everything in one day and leave. I was totally starting over. I wasn’t the little girl anymore, taking orders and doing what he said.”

Tragedy Struck
Reba McEntire dominated the field when an accident happened last 1991. Her band was flying in a charter plane, and it crashed to a mountain that was close to San Diego. Everyone who was in the helicopter died, resulting in having the eight members of her band killed in the crash. The main reason was deemed to be poor visibility. When the accident took place, Reba McEntire was soundly asleep at a nearby hotel. We could imagine how distraught the country artist was the moment she found out the truth. According to Reba, it was like she lost her family, especially because some of the members who died had been in her band for countless years.
