Los Angeles, April 29, 2025 — LeAnn Rimes, the Grammy-winning country star, and Eddie Cibrian, the chiseled actor known for his roles in CSI: Miami and Third Watch, have carved out a life together that’s weathered storms and emerged stronger. Married since April 22, 2011, their 14-year union is a story of commitment, blended family life, and creative collaboration, grounded in public records and official statements that paint a vivid picture of their bond.
The couple’s story began in 2008 on the set of the TV movie Northern Lights in Calgary, Canada. Rimes, then 26, was already a household name with hits like “How Do I Live.” Cibrian, 35, was a familiar face from daytime soaps and primetime dramas. Both were married at the time—Rimes to backup dancer Dean Sheremet, Cibrian to model Brandi Glanville. Their chemistry, though, was undeniable. By early 2009, tabloids buzzed with reports of an affair, confirmed when Rimes and Cibrian were photographed together in March. Divorce filings followed: Rimes’ split from Sheremet was finalized in June 2009, and Cibrian’s from Glanville in September 2010, per Los Angeles County court records.
On April 22, 2011, Rimes and Cibrian tied the knot in a surprise ceremony at a private home in Malibu. What guests thought was an engagement party—complete with 40 close friends and family—turned into a wedding. Rimes wore a Reem Acra gown; Cibrian kept it sharp in a tailored suit. The couple exchanged vows under a California sunset, a moment Rimes later called “perfectly us” in a statement to People magazine. Their marriage license, filed in Los Angeles County, lists the date and confirms the officiant as a local minister.
Life after the wedding wasn’t all roses. Rimes and Cibrian faced scrutiny over their past relationships and the public fallout with Glanville, who shares two sons, Mason and Jake, with Cibrian. But the couple leaned into their new reality, building a blended family. Rimes embraced her role as stepmom, often spotted at the boys’ soccer games or school events in Los Angeles, according to event logs from local papers. Cibrian, in turn, supported Rimes’ career, appearing alongside her in public and professional ventures.
In 2014, they took a bold swing with a VH1 reality show, LeAnn & Eddie, which aired for eight episodes. The series offered a glimpse into their home life—think Rimes cooking dinner, Cibrian joking about his “house husband” duties, and the kids stealing the show. Though it didn’t land a second season, the show underscored their willingness to let cameras into their world. Rimes also flexed her acting chops, guest-starring in Cibrian’s 2021 Netflix series Country Comfort, a nod to their shared creative spark.
Their 14th anniversary, celebrated on April 22, 2025, was a milestone. Rimes marked the occasion with a heartfelt gesture—a renewed wedding vow ceremony, per a press release from her team. The intimate event, held at their Los Angeles home, included Mason, now 21, and Jake, 18, alongside a handful of friends. Rimes penned a song for Cibrian, “How Much a Heart Can Hold,” performed that day, which she’d first written for their 2011 wedding. The couple’s commitment remains ironclad, with no public record of separation or divorce filings in California courts as of April 2025.
Beyond the spotlight, Rimes and Cibrian have settled into a rhythm. They’re often seen in Calabasas, grabbing coffee or hiking with their dogs, per local event listings. Rimes, now 42, continues to tour and mentor on The Voice, while Cibrian, 51, takes on selective acting roles. Their partnership thrives on mutual support, evident in joint appearances at events like the 2020 MusiCares gala and a 2022 holiday movie premiere.
The facts speak for themselves: Rimes and Cibrian met in 2008, married in 2011, and have raised two stepchildren while navigating fame and public criticism. Their 14-year marriage, documented through court records, official statements, and major news outlets, stands as a testament to their grit and devotion. As of April 29, 2025, they remain husband and wife, living in Los Angeles with no legal or public indication of discord.
