When it comes to meeting new loves, Miranda Lambert seems to always be at the right place at the right time. The country singer met her first husband, Blake Shelton, when the two were tapped to sing together at the CMT 100 Greatest Duets concerts in 2005 (via Bustle). Her career also led her right into the arms of Brendan McLoughlin, a Staten Island native who was working as a New York City police officer at the time he and Lambert began their relationship (via Brides).
The two met while McLoughlin was on duty — literally. Lambert was performing on "Good Morning America" while McLoughlin was stationed as security for the area. "My girlfriends, the Annies, saw him and knew I might be ready to hang out with someone. They invited him to our show behind my back," Lambert said of their meeting. A little while after they met, McLoughlin took an "authorized leave of absence" from the force, which we doubt was a coincidence.
