Garth Brooks holding hands with wife Trisha Yearwood days before rape charges

Garth Brooks was all about love just days before he was hit with a sexual assault lawsuit…posting a sweet picture with his wife, Trisha Yearwood.

In the IG post shared on Monday, Garth and his wife of nearly 19 years are seen hand in hand in St. Paul, Minnesota, heading to a Habitat for Humanity construction site to receive their buddy to help Jimmy Carteris the nonprofit 2024 Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project.

The singer clearly had a great day, writing in the caption: “As they say, home is key and love never ends! To everyone who works with us, today was a GREAT Day 1!!!”

It was a fantastic day for him then – but Garth sings a different tune now faced with a lawsuit yesterday from a woman who claims he raped her at a Las Vegas hotel in 2019. The woman says she worked as a makeup artist and hairdresser for Trisha for years and then started working for Garth in 2017.

TMZ reported his reaction… Garth responded to the lawsuit later Thursday … and claimed he was “harassed non-stop with threats, lies and tragic stories about what my future would be if I didn't write a multi-million dollar check.”

Garth had anticipated this and filed his own lawsuit against the woman about a month ago, accusing her of “blackmail and defamation of her reputation.” He submitted the complaint anonymously “in the interests of the families of both sides.”

In his lawsuit, Garth alleges that the accuser knew that if she followed up on her allegations, she would seriously damage his career and reputation.

But Garth made it clear… “I trust the system, I'm not afraid of the truth, and I'm not the man they made me out to be.”
