Reba McEntire and Rex Linn are engaged after five years of dating.

The couple sparked engagement rumors while attending the 2025 Emmys on Sunday, September 14, when a reporter referred to them as fiancés. People subsequently confirmed that McEntire, 70, and Linn, 68, are indeed set to wed.

McEntire was joined at the Emmys by Little Big Town members Karen Fairchild and Kimberly Schlapman for a performance of the Golden Girls theme song, “Thank You For Being a Friend,” in honor of the sitcom’s 40th anniversary.

McEntire and Linn have been dating since 2020. In her 2023 book, Not That Fancy, she recalled their immediate connection after meeting in 1991 while filming The Gambler Returns.
