We'd like to propose a "Tequila" toast to Shay Mooney and Dan Smyers! The duo known as Dan + Shay have seen some massive success in their lives lately. In the past few years they’ve been nominated for duo of the year too many times to count, released a new album, and they’ve both done it alongside their beautiful wives. The duo has been a mainstream staple since their 2019 hit, "10,000 Hours," a collaboration with Justin Bieber. And now they're taking their talents to The Voice, where they will be the first two-person coaching team.
Dan + Shay’s wives have been a huge inspiration for their music, which includes songs like “Tequila,” “Glad You Exist” and “From the Ground Up.” The couples' romantic weddings even played a starring role in the music video for their hit "Speechless." Here’s everything to know about Dan + Shay’s sweet relationships with Abby Law and Hannah Billingsley.
Who is Shay Mooney married to?
Shay first met Hannah in March of 2015, according to Brides. The former Miss Arkansas had been chatting with the performer for years, but officially met when he was giving a concert in his hometown. That night, Shay asked her to attend the ACM Awards with him. “I agreed, and the rest is history,” she told the outlet.
He proposed shortly after in 2016, but before they got married, the pair was delighted by another surprise: Hannah was pregnant! Though they were excited about the unexpected news, Hannah admitted in a blog post that she had a “small freakout.”
“Growing up as we both did, in conservative small towns with traditional parents, we were terrified to confess our new status as parents-to-be,” she said. “However, despite the stress and the surprise of the situation, babies are blessings and we knew this child would be SO loved by all.” She was right, and they welcomed son Asher James Mooney on January 24, 2017.
Nine months later on October 20, 2017, the pair wed at the Mooney family farm in Arkansas and celebrated with a honeymoon in Cancun, Mexico, according to People. Now, the couple shares plenty of adorable snapshots of their life as parents and husband and wife.
They welcomed their second son, Ames Alexander, on February 21, 2020, making Asher a proud big brother. The pair added a third baby boy to the mix, Abram Shay Mooney, on January 17, 2023.
Who is Dan Smyers married to?
Dan and Abby dated for three-and-a-half years before Dan popped the question in November 2016 while the couple was on a vacation in Hawaii. They celebrated the happy news exactly as they should: with plenty of social media photos and lots of Champagne.
They officially married a few months later on May 13, 2017. People reported they said “I do” as the sun set in Nashville. Abby wore a stunning gown by Galia Lahav while Dan looked dapper in a Hugo Boss tuxedo.
Dan and Abby don’t have children, but they do share four furbabies (Chief, Joy, and Ghost were all adorable groomsmen at their ceremony). The couple is passionate about animal rights, and often volunteers at or fosters pups through Proverbs: 12:10 Animal Rescue. In fact, after they got engaged Dan promised, “We’re gonna save all the animals together, FOREVER.”
They've since added a fourth rescue pup, Macaroni, to their happy home.
Congrats to both of these happy couples!
