McGraw and Hill initially met in 1994 at a gig in Nashville. However, both were involved with other people at the time. Luckily, fate brought them back together two years later, and their love story began to unfold.

While many major entertainment stars have had problems working together, these two have figured out their way and held things down for decades. Talking about their work style to PEOPLE, Hill had crowned her man "the big dreamer," which prompted him to respond, "Then she has to do all the details, come in and clean up my mess." 

The Billboard Music Awards Winner's Daughter Recently Clapped Back At An Internet Troll

Earlier this year, the oldest Hill-McGraw brood had a social media run-in with a troll. Despite dealing with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which she has been open about, Gracie has achieved a slimmer figure.

While the 26-year-old has often shared her progress on Instagram, one critic used the opportunity of her posting bikini pics of herself to criticize her for using the diabetes medication Ozempic to help with her weight loss.

Amid a flurry of praises, one Instagram user slammed her for not including the drug in her caption, which read, "It's a gorgeous day for narcissism!" "And Ozempic!" the critic exclaimed in the comment section.

Without batting an eyelid, Gracie responded, "I did use Ozempic last year, yes. I am now on a low dose of Mounjaro for my PCOS and working out. No need to accuse when I have been open about it."
