- Jason Aldean and Wife Take Aim at Cracker Barrel Amid Beloved Restaurant’s Controversial Overhaul (parade.com)
Country music star Jason Aldean and his wife, Brittany, are once again stirring the pot, this time taking aim at Cracker Barrel. The popular restaurant chain recently updated its logo and interior, a move that has sparked considerable backlash and even calls for a boycott. The Aldeans have apparently joined the ranks of disgruntled diners.
In a joint Instagram post, Brittany shared a selfie of the couple enjoying a breakfast date, with the caption, “Breakfast date this morning🤍 We would be at @crackerbarrel but yall been actin a fool.” The post quickly garnered attention, with fans chiming in with messages of support and amusement.
This isn’t the first time the Aldeans have found themselves in the headlines. The couple’s history of controversial statements includes Brittany’s 2022 comments on gender identity, which led to a public feud with fellow country singer Maren Morris.
Jason Aldean also faced criticism for his song “Try That in a Small Town,” with Brittany staunchly defending him. She even criticized Billboard for omitting her from their list of 100 Greatest Country Artists of All Time, attributing the snub to “wokeness.”
When they’re not making waves with their outspoken views, the Aldeans focus on family life. Jason and Brittany share two children, Memphis and Navy.
Jason also has two daughters, Keeley and Kendyl, from his previous marriage. The family recently celebrated Kendyl’s 18th birthday.
It seems that even amidst controversy, family remains a priority for the Aldeans.
