Miranda Lambert and her husband, Brendan, celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary somewhere on a beach, and Miranda posted some photos of the couple on her Instagram last night (1/26).

Lambert wrote, "Celebrating 4 years married today with my main squeeze @brendanjmcloughlin Happy anniversary babe! You are the best. (Y'all are welcome for the last two pics)."

The post was liked almost 300,000 times. One fan commented, "Happy anniversary to such a beautiful couple." Another fan observed, "Happy Anniversary. You both look so incredibly happy!" One more fan said, Happy "Anniversary, and too many more."

Brendan also posted images from the couple vacationing in Mexico. He wrote, "4 years down and a lifetime to go. Happy anniversary @mirandalambert."

Dan and Shay's Shay Mooney reacted to Brendan's post, "Happy anniversary! Yaooolllll cuties."

The couple married in January 2019 at a farm outside Nashville. They later shared news of their nuptials with the world that Valentine's Day. The pair first met outside Good Morning America three months earlier, where Lambert was promoting new music with her group Pistol Annies, and McLoughlin was doing security for the show.

Miranda was recently nominated for four new Grammy nominations, including Best Country Album, Best Country Song, Best Country Solo Performance, and Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

When they were announced, she said in a statement, "I've always viewed a GRAMMY Award as one of the highest honors you can achieve as an artist. I think back to creating these songs with some of my closest friends, not knowing where those writing sessions would lead, and it blows me away to see where they've taken us."

She adds, "These nominations are an absolute honor, and I'm so proud to be representing the Country music community with this music that means so much to me."

The 2023 Grammy Awards will be handed out live on CBS on Sunday, February 5.

In country music, like other genres, some artists get recognition from the Grammys for almost everything they put out, and some artists do not get any. The ones who get all the nominations and wins are what we like to call "Grammy Darlings," and country has its fair share of them.

As Miranda Lambert, Ashley McBryde, and Luke Combs score big Grammy nominations this year, we look at ten artists in country music, some from today and some from yesterday, who get all the love from Grammy voters through the years.
