Lambert and McLoughlin met on the set of Good Morning America in November 2018 and married three months later during a secret wedding in January 2019.

While speaking to PEOPLE in October 2019, she said she wanted to keep the ceremony private because her prior marriage with Blake Shelton, which lasted from 2011 to 2015, was in the spotlight.

“I was married before, and it was a huge wedding and everything was very public. So was my divorce. I learned then that it’s not for everybody else. This is my actual life. With Brendan, I made it a point to keep it as private as I could for as long as I could,” she told PEOPLE at the time.

During an appearance on the Tamron Hall Show in January, Lambert said that one thing she appreciates and respects about McLoughlin is his honesty.

“My husband tells me the truth. He gives me harsh reality, and I love it,” she said. “I like to say he calls me on my s—, which I love because everybody needs somebody in their life like a truth-teller. He’s very New York about it.”

The singer echoed similar sentiments while speaking with PEOPLE in May, stating that the one rule in their marriage is “communication.”

“We just talk it out, whatever it is, we talk about everything. And I think communication is super important, especially because women, we expect men to know what we’re thinking and they don’t. We got to tell them,” said Lambert.
