Clint Black and Lisa Hartman Black are one of those enduring couples who have proven they definitely have staying power. The two have been married for 29 years, which is no small feat! They recently sat down with ET to talk about just how they’ve made it work for nearly three decades.
The pair recently introduced the winner for best duo at the Academy of Country Music Awards, and ET wanted to know more about how they keep their own duo going. Clint and Lisa met all way back in 1990, when they were both performing at the same New Year’s Eve concert in Houston. Clint had just released the album that would make him a national name, and Lisa was best known for her role on soap opera Knots Landing.
Lisa said she was into Clint pretty much immediately. “I didn’t have anything else to do, so I thought, why not go see him? I was really knocked out.”
Clint felt the same way. He told Country Living: “Anyone would be taken by her looks but she was a really, really pleasant person and I didn’t know her from Eve. I’d never seen her movies. All I knew was that she was a TV actress.”
He added, “When we got married, my capacity to feel deepened. Our marriage, who we are together, guides me. The big question [was], what would the two of us being saying in front of the rest of the world? It had to ring true for who we are.”
The pair got married in 1991, and they haven’t looked back.
