Yeah, they don't need no stinkin' marriage license.
so happy to see that hes named after Waylon. I wish Shooter would do another solo country(ish) album, 4th of July was a great song...

What an idiot statement! They have been together 9 years. In show biz terms,that's a couple of centuries.
Hell,most of the non-celeb marriages I know of don't last 9 years.
I say they should do whatever works best for them. They are engaged now,so it looks like they have decided to make it formal.
Laura Dern & Ben Harper finally wed after two kids, but it didn't last. Let this couple stay together like Johnny Depp & Vanessa Paradis - it just seems to be the smarter option. Congrats to Shooter & Drea! :-D
Yeah, It'd be SOOOOO much better if they were in unhealthy married hell.
How many kids can say their mother was wacked by Stevie VanZant?

A daughter named Alabama? C'mon...I wish celebs would stop giving out these horrible names to their kids like Coco and Apple. Ya, we know you want their names to stick out, but these names are downright horrible. Not sure why anyone would do that to their child.
