Reba McEntire Confirms She's Called It Quits With Her Boyfriend Skeeter
The country star and upcoming CMAs host has since revealed that she and Skeeter have broken up.
Reba McEntire is back on the market.
The country singer started dating retired oil geologist and photographer Anthony “Skeeter” Lasuzzo in 2017, but she revealed to Us Weekly in November that they’ve since called it quits.
She dropped the news while being asked if she and Skeeter would spend the holidays together. “Skeeter and I broke up in May, so, unfortunately, we will not be spending that time together,” the “Fancy” singer said.
Reba later confirmed the split to People. Both outlets also reported a source told Closer Weekly that Reba’s “busy schedule and Skeeter’s way of life—he’s retired—just didn’t mesh very well.”
Reba and Skeeter first found each other after Reba’s divorce with Narvel Blackstock, who she was married to for 26 years (by the way, that’s also how she became mother-in-law to Kelly Clarkson). Kix and Barbara Brooks first introduced Reba and Skeeter during a trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and it was pretty much an instant connection.
“[They said] we’ve got a friend who is a wildlife photographer, and he knows all the good places to go and he’ll drive you around,” Reba told CountryLiving.com in April. “And so he did, and we started dating about a month or two after that.”
Though we’re sad to hear Reba’s latest update, it sounds like the upcoming CMAs host isn’t letting it get to her.
“We still talk and we’re friends, but just decided to go our separate ways,” she told Us.
