Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job'
Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job' originally appeared on Parade.
A country star who has found himself at the center of some controversies in recent years made a bold statement about what "a wife's job" is around the house.
In a recent interview with Taste of Country, country star got to talking about what it's like at home when he's not on tour. While it sounds like he definitely pitches in around the house, it also sounds like his "wife's job" is to keep him busy with a honey-do list.
"[Brittany] gets on Amazon and orders all this stuff, and it comes to the house and I'm like, 'What is this?' and she goes, 'Oh, we're gonna redo Navy's room,' and I'm like, 'Oh, "we are"? OK, cool,'' said added, "That's kind of a wife's job. If they just see you chilling, doing nothing, watching baseball or whatever, they're like, 'Hey, you should help me do this!' 'OK, here we go,'" the country star said wryly, adding that he's "gotta get back to work" so he can get a break from all that.
"I've been off the road for about six months, and I am itching to get back after it," said Aldean.
The Taste of Country host followed up by joking, "When's the last time Jason Aldean did a load of laundry?", and Aldean said that he helps with that kind of thing all the time.
"Probably yesterday! Yeah, you know, we kind of tag-team that up. If she does it, she'll bring it in, I'll fold it or whatever. I pitch in around the house and help out," said the married Brittany Kerr in 2015. They met in 2012 when photos of them surfaced canoodling at a bar, and he was forced to issue an apology for "acting inappropriately" because at the time, he was married to his first wife, Jessica Ann Ussery. Ussery and Aldean separated a few months later, and Kerr and Aldean made their first public appearance as a couple in 2014 before marrying a year later.
Aldean has two daughters from his first marriage, Keeley, 22, and Kendyl, 17, and a son, Memphis, 7, and a daughter, Navy, 6, from his second marriage.
The singer has never been a stranger to controversy, from his second wife posting a video with transphobic comments that caused his public relations firm The GreenRoom to part ways with him after 17 years, to his "Try That in a Small Town" song, the video for which was pulled from CMT because of backlash over its lyrics about guns, violence and what some deemed coded references to lynching. Aldean was famously performing on stage during the 2017 mass shooting at his Las Vegas concert that killed 60 people.
