Country music singer-songwriter Dierks Bentley's wife has known him since their awkward preteen days... More on Cassidy Black Bentley here!

Country music star Dierks Bentley’s wife, Cassidy Black Bentley, first came into his life during their 8th grade middle school days in Phoenix, Arizona. Dierks didn’t really know Cassidy until he dated her best friend— but she soon captured his full attention. The pair spent years on-and-off dating and finally decided to get serious in February 2005, after she visited him on the road in Las Vegas.

“We met in eighth grade, back in Arizona. It’s a pretty crazy story of just going back and forth with the right time or the wrong time, or right place, wrong time, all that stuff,” Dierks once told reporters. “Finally, I was playing a show in Las Vegas, and opening for George Strait, and she walked on the bus. I kind of knew that that was the moment.”

The lovebirds eloped in Mexico right after Dierks popped the question on December 17, 2005.

“I ended that tour in Las Vegas, playing the House of Blues, and we went to Mexico, and three days later, we got married,” the star explained. “Probably one of the things I’m most grateful for is some of the success coming later as it has, because it’s really nice to share it with somebody. When it starts, it’s so nice to share a lot of ups, a lot of downs, a lot of in-between moments with her. It’s been a crazy, crazy ride.”

The pair now have three beautiful children, Evelyn Day Bentley (born October 4, 2008), Jordan Catherine Bentley (born December 25, 2010), and Knox (born October 9, 2013). So far, Evie is showing the most love for singing and sometimes joins her father on stage!
