Alan and Denise Jackson are thankful for various things as they prepare to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s. The couple not only celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary on Friday, December 15th, but they also welcomed their first grandson two days earlier.
Alan and Denise met in high school and married on December 15, 1979, at 21 and 19, respectively. The couple split after more than two decades, but they never divorced and eventually reconciled – they’ve been happily married ever since.
They have three daughters, Mattie Denise Selecman (born in 1990), Alexandra Jane “Ali” Selecman (born in 1993), and Dani Grace Selecman (born in 1995). (born in 1995). (I was born in 1997). Ali is the third of three children. Denise and Alan become grandparents, although she is the first in her family to have a child.
Alan Jackson celebrated the wonderful news by posting photos of him and his wife holding the newborn on Instagram. The two were sitting on a couch, the infant in Denise’s arms, Alan wrapped around them in his famous Cowboy hat. The ‘grandparent glow’ was back.
“Denise and I are enjoying our 43rd wedding anniversary with our new grandson Jackson Alvie Bradshaw. On December 13, 2022, Ali and Sam welcomed Jack into the world. “I can’t believe this little guy has turned us into grandparents!” Alan wrote something in the caption. They’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Alan had just posted a new photo of himself and his wife to commemorate their 43-year marriage. “Everyone, please wish Alan and Denise a Happy Anniversary!” the singer said in the caption, as hundreds of admirers wished them a happy day.
The news comes three weeks after Alan Jackson tweeted a photo of his family in front of their large fireplace, which showed Ali’s baby bump, which has since vanished. Alan appeared alongside his wife, three daughters, and their respective significant partners. Oh, and their two dogs were also present.
Alan Jackson has had a tremendous 40-year music career, releasing 16 studio albums, three ‘Greatest Hits’ albums, two gospel albums, and two Christmas albums. Few musicians have sold 75 million records globally, with 44 million sales taking place in the United States.
As a result, during this year’s Country Music Awards, Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan presented Alan Jackson with the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award. It is given to “a legendary singer who has earned the highest level of recognition in Country Music.”
“Throughout my career, I’ve had a terrific team of songwriters who have backed me. “I feel quite fortunate to have had all of that to assist me in getting this far.” “I can’t thank everyone who has been in my life throughout the years, but I must thank my wife Denise, who is somewhere over there,” he said.
Jackson has been admitted into three Halls of Fame during the last two decades: the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 2001, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2018, and the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2019. “I’ve lived the American dream,” he added, and he still does.
