The two reconciled the following year, and wife Denise reflected on her relationship with Alan Jackson in her book, It’s All About Him: Finding the Love of My Life.

“His betrayal and our separation were what led to this new, passionate love relationship with God and also led to us being able to have the kind of marriage that we both always wanted but just didn’t know how to have,” Denise said in her 2007 interview with PEOPLE.

“Our marriage isn’t perfect,” she added. “Even now, every day is a work in progress. I feel like our relationship now is based on love and respect, and I think Alan sees me as an equal partner now versus the old relationship when it was based more on dependency.”
