Country music legend Willie Nelson and his wife Annie D'Angelo will have been married for nearly three decades! Learn more about their love story here!
Despite his previous three marriages ending in divorce, Willie Nelson’s fourth wife Annie D’Angelo is 100 percent the 91-year-old country music legend’s perfect match. Annie spent her younger years as a professional makeup artist. In fact, that’s how the pair met. After working in the makeup department for several movies during the 1980s, she was hired to work on the makeup team for the 1986 film Stagecoach, starring the country singer-songwriter. Annie has proven to be the steadfast partner who has stood by his side through it all. Their love story is one of resilience, understanding, and partnership that has endured for over three decades.
Annie’s ability to understand and support Willie’s unconventional lifestyle set her apart, and their marriage became a cornerstone of stability for the country music icon. Unlike his previous marriages, which were often marked by the chaos of a life on the road, Annie’s presence brought a sense of calm and companionship to Willie.
Annie and Willie enjoy spending family time with their two sons, Lukas and Micah Nelson, both of whom have followed in their father’s musical footsteps. Lukas and Micah are accomplished musicians in their own right, performing both as solo artists and alongside their father. The Nelson family is known for their closeness, often collaborating musically and spending time together at their home in Maui, Hawaii. Annie’s nurturing nature has played a pivotal role in keeping the family connected despite the demands of Willie’s career.
Willie has often expressed how much he values the stability that Annie has brought to his life, especially when it comes to raising their children. She has helped create an environment that fosters creativity and family unity, which has allowed Willie to continue performing and creating music well into his 80s. The couple’s shared love of family and music has become a defining element of their relationship, showing that even a country music legend can find solace and joy in the simple pleasures of life.
Even though finding true love hasn’t always been easy for Nelson, it is pretty clear that Annie has been a huge blessing for him. We wish the couple many more years of joy!
“Always On My Mind” Lyrics
Maybe I didn’t love you
Quite as often as I could have
And maybe I didn’t treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I’m sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
And maybe I didn’t hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
I guess I never told you
I am so happy that you’re mine
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Tell me
Tell me that your sweet love hasn’t died
And give me
Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied
I’ll keep you satisfied
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind (you were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind (you were always on my mind)
You were always on my mind
