RaeLynn and Davis first met at church in 2012 before reconnecting at a mutual friend's wedding. They married in 2015 and welcomed their daughter in 2021. Throughout their relationship, RaeLynn often spoke about Davis' support for her career, including during his service in the U.S. Army and as she balanced motherhood with returning to music.

The singer has also been candid about how her parents' divorce shaped her outlook on marriage. Her hit song Love Triangle was inspired by her childhood experiences, and in past interviews she said those experiences made her determined to build a lasting family of her own.

Neither RaeLynn nor Joshua Davis has publicly shared any additional details about what led to their split beyond citing irreconcilable differences in the divorce filing.
