Carrie Underwood Gushes Over Husband Mike Fisher as He's Inducted Into Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame: 'So Proud'
Carrie Underwood is one proud wife!
The country crooner took to Twitter on Thursday, July 27, to celebrate husband, Mike Fisher's induction into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame for his days playing for the NHL.
"Congratulations, babe! So proud of you," Underwood gushed over the former athlete — who she shares sons Isaiah, 8, and Jacob, 4, with — in a quoted tweet along with photos from the ceremony. "I can think of no one more deserving! Glad me and the boys could celebrate you and your accomplishments… #blessed."
On Saturday, July 22, Fisher — who retired in 2017 — was honored by the Hall of Fame as a member of the Nashville Predators hockey team whom he helped lead to the Stanley Cup Final the year before he officially hung up his hockey jersey.
After Underwood wrapped up her busy Denim & Rhinestones tour, she made her family her main priority. Despite going through a rough patch, the pair has become stronger than ever.
"Mike felt like Carrie was too lenient, and she felt he was too strict. But they've learned to compromise over the years, and now they're on the same page," an insider explained.
