The Unanswered Questions About Carrie Underwood’s Husband

Carrie Underwood and her husband, Mike Fisher, are a beloved pair on the red carpet. They are frequently seen at prestigious award shows like the Grammys, CMA Awards, and American Music Awards. Their appearances together always draw admiration and attention.

Consistent Presence at the CMT Music Awards

One place you can always spot Mike Fisher proudly standing by Carrie Underwood’s side is the CMT Music Awards. The former Nashville Predators star appeared with Underwood at the awards in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, and 2019.

After the pandemic, award shows changed slightly, but Fisher was back with his wife in 2022. However, during the 2023 CMT Awards in Austin, Texas, Fisher was noticeably absent.

The Reason Behind Fisher’s Absence

Despite rumors, there is no trouble in paradise. Mike Fisher missed the 2023 CMT Awards because he was on dad duty. Carrie Underwood, who was nominated for both Female Video of the Year and Video of the Year, revealed this on the red carpet. She explained that her husband was at home taking care of their kids.

“My spouse is in command of the children,” Underwood said. “Usually, he holds down the fort while I work on projects like these.”

Distance from Home

The 2023 CMT Awards were held in Texas, far from the couple’s home in Franklin, a Nashville suburb. This likely made it difficult for Fisher to attend. Nashville had been the previous host city for the CMTs, making it easier for Fisher to accompany Underwood.

Despite this, Underwood looked stunning in a rhinestone two-piece outfit, enjoying her time in Texas away from her sons.

Protecting Their Children’s Privacy

Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher are keen on keeping their sons, Isaiah and Jacob, out of the public eye. Last year, they decided not to bring their children on tour to maintain a stable routine.

“We prioritize my oldest’s education,” Underwood told ET Canada. “We desire for their lives to be as typical as they may be.”

Fisher is a hands-on father, allowing Underwood to focus on her career without worrying about household chores. “He’s got it under lock and key while I’m not here,” Underwood said proudly.

Fisher’s Fatherhood Journey

Mike Fisher has always been eager to become a father. Before the birth of their first son, Isaiah, he expressed his excitement to The Tennessean, saying, “Many people say it’s impossible to explain until it happens, and then it’s the greatest thing ever.”

Although Underwood had initial doubts about motherhood, her perspective changed completely after Isaiah’s birth. She shared in the “Mike and Carrie: God & Country” documentary that she was unsure about her ability to be a good mother. However, motherhood transformed her outlook on life.

A Loving Family Life

Today, Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher live happily with their two sons in the country. Underwood’s initial uncertainties about starting a family have faded, replaced by a deep love and appreciation for her role as a mother. “It has altered who I am as a person,” she said in an interview with Redbook Mag. “I am completely enamored!”
