A REKINDLED romance with Lorrie Morgan has busted up country star Sammy
Kershaw's 14-year marriage.
His angry wife Kim has filed for divorce and asked for a restraining order to
freeze Sammy's assets.
"Kim was devastated to find out her husband was seeing Lorrie whose own
husband, Jon Randall, filed for divorce in August," a source tells STAR.
"Trouble started brewing when they recorded a duet last year. During recording
sessions they were flirting heavily, and then they started turning up to each
other's concerts. And they were seen coming out of each other's tour buses at
weird hours."
Lorrie, 41, and 42-year-old Sammy fell in love as teenagers when they both
worked with George Jones. The hot romance ended long ago, but they kept in
touch.
"Word got back to Randall about it, and he started calling Sammy's band members
asking, 'What's going on with my wife and Sammy?' He was sick of being made a
fool, and now Kim is too."
Kershaw, who admits his two previous marriages crumbled because of his cocaine
and alcohol abuse, seemed to have settled down with Kim. They have two
daughters, Erin, 13, and Emily, 6.
"They were solid as a rock for a long time until Lorrie re-entered his life,"
says the source. "It ended up ruining both their marriages. Between them
they've been through seven marriages, so I don't know if they're in a hurry to
walk down the aisle again."
Lorrie was married to George Jones, bassist Ron Gaddis, the late country star
Keith Whitley and Clint Black's bus driver Brad Thompson. None of her marriages
lasted nearly as long as the union between Sammy and Kim Kershaw.
"Kim felt like she deserved better after 14 years of marriage -- and she wants
him to pay," the source says.

Make that "George Jones' bassist Ron Gaddis." Although George has been
married several times, none of them were to Lorrie.

I thought it was Lorrie who, while married to George Jones, hid his car keys to
keep him from going to buy more liquor and, as I heard the story, he was later
pulled over riding his lawnmower to the store. Or is that an urban legend?

That was Tammy Wynette. Again, George and Lorrie have *never* been
married to each other.

Who was the Senator that she was involved with for a long spate of time? He
had been an actor previous(at the same time?) to his term of office. I
believe he died no too long ago.

:::wow. thinking that Lorrie certainly enjoys a variety of men: bus driver,
country singers, a legislator. :::

You're thinking of Fred Thompson. To my knowledge, he's still alive and
kicking. You're right about Lorrie enjoying a variety of men, including
athletes. She dated Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman for quite sometime
and called him the love of her life. Apparently, the relationship was ended by
Aikman because Lorrie can't have any more children and he wanted a big family.

That's Fred Thompson from Tennessee and the last I heard he was still alive.

George Jones and Keith Whitley both had alcohol problems. Lorrie was only
married to Keith.
I also heard a rumor that she used to tie her leg to Keith's leg at night when
she went to sleep so she'd wake up if he got up to get a drink.
I've heard the tractor story too, but I am confused now. Maybe it was a George
and Tammy story or a Keith and Lorrie story. Either scenario would fit.
I actually heard a very sweet story about Sammy Kershaw. A friend of mine won
a bunch of backstage passes to country concerts in Michigan about two years
ago. Anyway, when they met Sammy, he was extremely gracious to them, and was
very friendly and warm. When the concert started, my friends tickets were
front row and during the concert, he called my friend's 7 year old daughter up
to the stage and sang a ballad to her, and then gave her his guitar. The
little girl was just absolutely gaga and so thrilled. My friend said that he
was one of the nicest country stars she met.
She did not have such nice things to say about Billy Ray Cyrus and John Michael
Montgomery though. LOL
These country singers are becoming worse than the rock stars and rappers.

Gee, wonder when he might start reproducing for that big family? <wink> <wink>

Billie, unless he wises up, he's probably going to marry his fiancee in
the spring. I hope his friends, teammates, family, etc. wake him up
outta this nightmare before he's lost everything......his self respect,
the respect of his fans, family and friends, his fortune, etc. She's a
piece of work from all I hear.

Before you buy.
Only because rock stars and rappers are less likely to get married in
the first place. ;-)

Especially since they broke up at least five years ago.

But will she be a good beard?

No, she's a year or two younger than him and has a 9 year old daughter from a
previous marriage. She was a secretary for the Cowboys front office but no longer
works there, or anywhere for that matter.

Tammy Wynette story, y'all.

Actually, I've met Sammy, Billy Ray and
John Michael and I can only say my
meetings with them were positive in nature.
They were very friendly and warm, and
Billy Ray, especially, was very very nice.

NO she's 2 years younger. She quit her job to be available to Troy
24/7. He's been supporting her for about a year. She did used to work
as a secretary in PR for the Boys. No brains whatsoever.

Never fear, Linda. He's got himself a baby maker now. She's got one
child and will have all the Aikman babies he wants just to keep him on
a string.
