John Rich is a married man. The Big & Rich singer tied the knot Saturday with longtime girlfriend, Joan Bush. The small ceremony took place at Nashville's famed Ryman Auditorium with just about two dozen family members. A larger reception was held at Fontanel Mansion, the former home of fellow country star Barbara Mandrell. The historic house is also where Rich's CMT celeb-reality show, 'Gone Country,' is being filmed.
Though this marriage may come as a surprise for fans, Rich and Bush, who runs a Houston modeling agency, have been dating for five years. They've just kept their relationship under wraps, never appearing together on red carpets or at high-profile events.
