Previously, Yoakam has been romantically linked to fellow country singer Wynonna Judd and several Hollywood actresses, including Karen Duffy and Sharon Stone. In 2010, the singer began dating Emily Joyce, and the two became engaged six years later. In May 2020, Yoakam announced that the two had tied the knot in a private March ceremony.
In an official statement on Yoakam’s Instagram, the country star’s team revealed that Yoakam and Joyce had wed with less than ten people in attendance. They wrote:
“Dwight Yoakam and Emily Joyce were married in March just prior to the quarantine in a private ceremony at St Monica Catholic Church in Santa Monica, CA. At a time when there is so much uncertainty in the world, there are still happy moments. In the face of shutdowns and social-distancing requirements, love prevailed, and the less than ten attendees were seated at least six feet from one another. “
