Hank Williams Jr. and his wife, Brandi Williams, were friends for two decades before tying the knot.

The country singer and his now-wife got engaged in May 2023 — a little over a year after Hank’s wife of 32 years, Mary Jane Thomas, died suddenly from a collapsed lung punctured during elective surgery in March 2022. Hank was also previously married to Gwen Yeargain from 1971 to 1977 and to Becky White from 1977 to 1983.

Hank has not yet spoken publicly about his marriage to Brandi, though the couple became Instagram official in January 2023 with a post on the artist's account, which showed the two decked out in camo gear while hunting. “Sweethearts, Hank & Brandi,” the caption read.

The pair had a long history of friendship before they exchanged wedding vows, first crossing paths in 2003. While they keep their relationship private, they enjoy sharing photos on social media of themselves hunting and fishing together.

So who is Hank Williams Jr.’s wife? Here is everything to know about Brandi Williams and her relationship with the "Family Tradition" crooner.

Brandi and Jason married in December 2005. Though it’s unclear when they split, they welcomed three children together: their oldest daughter Alexis, son JB, and youngest daughter Ava, according to Jason’s Instagram posts.

Hank and Brandi wed in a small ceremony in Alabama on Sept. 9, 2023.

The official Hank Williams Jr. Facebook account shared details of the celebration a few days after the wedding — which happened less than a week after the couple publicly announced their engagement. According to the post, the ceremony took place at the Enon Baptist Church in Banks, Ala., “in front of a small group of family and friends,” followed by a reception at Kendall Hall in Troy, Ala.

The couple also shared a photo of their wedding on Hank’s Instagram. The post showed Hank and Brandi at the church altar — which was decorated with white and green flowers — with Brandi wearing a sparkling white gown and holding a large bouquet and Hank sporting a black suit and sunglasses. “Mr. and Mrs. Hank Williams Jr.,” the caption read.

At the reception, Brandi also wore a white cowboy hat bedazzled with the words “Mrs. Bocephus” — referring to Hank’s nickname, Bocephus — according to a TikTok video posted by the wedding’s hair and makeup artist, Tori Howard.

Howard also posted a photo on Instagram of the couple walking hand-in-hand down the aisle. In the photo, Hank and Brandi both had big smiles as they walked through the church, whose pews were decorated with flowers and white bows.

While Hank and Brandi don’t share much of their personal lives on social media, they do share photos of themselves hunting and fishing together.

On the Fourth of July in 2023, Hank’s official Instagram account posted a pair of photos of Hank and Brandi fishing.

The first photo featured Hank in sunglasses and a bucket hat holding up a fish, and the second showed Brandi with a fish of her own — and her engagement ring visible on her left hand.

The month after their wedding, in October 2023, Hank’s official Facebook page shared a snapshot of the pair hunting. “Great morning in Montana,” the caption read. Brandi posted the same photo on her Facebook.
