Merle Haggard and his lovely wife, Theresa, took a page out of the legendary Johnny Cash and June Carter’s book, performing the classic country duet “Jackson” with warmth and charm.
Though Theresa never recorded an album of her own, she absolutely shone in this performance, perfectly nailing June Carter’s part of the song. Merle, clearly captivated by her talent, couldn’t stop smiling as he watched her sing with such grace.
Merle and Theresa tied the knot in September of 1993, staying together until his passing in 2016. Shortly after their marriage, they welcomed Ben and Janessa into the world, expanding Merle’s family to include six incredible children.
“Jackson,” originally released by Johnny and June in 1967, earned the duo a Grammy Award for “Best Country & Western Performance Duet, Trio, or Group,” cementing its place as a timeless classic.
