Rory Feek Marries Daughter’s Teacher 8 Years After Death of Wife Joey

Rory Feek is saying “I do” to a new chapter.

Eight years after his wife and musical partner Joey Feek died following a battle with cervical cancer, the “One Angel” singer shared that he has remarried his 10-year-old daughter Indiana‘s teacher and their family friend, Rebecca.

The couple married on July 14 under a “timber-frame pavilion here in Greycliff, Montana,” Rory recounted on his blog about the special day. And as the 59-year-old explained, while he and Rebecca have been together for some time, his marriage is all thanks to his daughter.

“We knew marriage was a possibility,” Rory recounted, “it wasn’t something that either of us felt like we could seriously talk about. Mostly because up until that time Indiana only saw Rebecca as ‘Miss Rebecca her schoolteacher and our friend.”

But luckily for the couple, Indiana approached Rebecca with an idea in “late March” when the two of them were spending time together on Rory’s farm.
