Yelawolf's Wife Fefe Dobson & Their Rocky Relationship through the Years

Yelawolf's wife, Fefe Dobson, an alternative artist who shot to stardom in the early 2000s with a unique pop/rock sound, wasn't only a musician; she was an actress who once portrayed another American musical icon in a TV show. She married Yelawolf in 2013; however, their relationship now remains shrouded in mystery.

Yelawolf and Fefe Dobson were together for a few years before they tied the knot, but the couple faced some challenges, even after exchanging vows. In love dedications and interviews, they both often mentioned how they'd been "through a lot together," though they never specified their trials and tribulations.

Alongside maintaining their romance, the lovers continued working on their respective careers; however, it remains unclear if they are still together. In recent years, Dobson gave hints that she and Yelawolf were dissolving their marriage but almost immediately changed her tune.

Fefe Dobson's Musical Career

Dobson was born in Toronto, Canada, on February 28, 1985. She was raised by a single mother whose musical taste, including the likes of Bob Marley, Lisa Lisa, and Cult Jam, inspired a musical inclination in Dobson. But it wasn't until she discovered her own idols, such as Janet Jackson and Judy Garland, that she decided she wanted to be an artist.

And she wasn't without any support or encouragement, as the singer-songwriter said her mother always "pushed and encouraged" her to sing. On the contrary, Dobson's father wasn't a part of her life until recently. Though the two were estranged for the most part, Dobson's father's absence didn't affect her significantly.

She allowed him a chance to play his role in her present life, feeling grateful for his return, and now they're working on their relationship. It's unclear when her father exited her life, but Dobson broke into the music industry as an adolescent.

Her music catapulted her to stardom, with some smash hits scored in films and TV shows. She released two insanely successful albums, the first earning her a place on a Justin Timberlake tour, before taking a hiatus after her third album didn't do so well.

She has written music for today's stars, including Selena Gomez, Jordin Sparks, and Miley Cyrus. But, most significantly, Dobson became a mirror for alternative black kids who saw themselves in her. She dabbled in acting, appearing as Tina Turner in NBC's "American Dreams" and starring in the independent film, "Home Again," in 2011.

Yelawolf Made a Classic Proposal to His Wife

Dobson and Yelawolf began dating in 2011 and became engaged about a year later. Yelawolf confirmed their engagement on "Sway In The Morning" in August 2013 following Dobson's announcement with a photo of her ring on social media. He explained that he'd asked for her hand in marriage the previous Christmas morning.

Yelawolf said he didn't go down on one knee, declaring that he didn't follow conventional protocols. He and Dobson reportedly tied the knot in September 2019, yet in 2021, Dobson announced they were getting divorced during her appearance on a podcast. In a later interview that same year, she confirmed they were still married.

In early 2022, Dobson released the song "FCKN IN LOVE," dedicating it to her relationship with Yelawolf. She wrote it following what she described as a "great night" in which "magical things" had transpired. Still, the song noted how their relationship wasn't always rosy.

Are Yelawolf and Fefe Dobson Still Together?

At the time of writing, neither Yelawolf nor Dobson appeared on each other's social media timelines. They both dedicated their social pages to work-related content. Even the previously mentioned post depicting Dobson's engagement ring is gone, and no new reports have surfaced since they married.

In 2022, it was said that they still lived together in Nashville. That July, Yelawolf shared a Facebook appreciation post celebrating his wife's achievements, saying he loved and was proud of her. But as of March 2023, neither of the two lovebirds followed the other on Instagram.
