Jana Kramer’s relationship with soccer coach Allan Russell started out slow, but the pair’s connection was hard to deny for long.
“I don’t know if this is my forever person. … But, like, I’m not going to push away love just because I’ve been hurt before. I’m going to embrace it,” the One Tree Hill alum said during a January 2023 episode of her “Whine Down” podcast, revealing she had been dating a mystery man for several weeks after connecting through Instagram.
Kramer’s romance with the former North Carolina FC player, which she publicly debuted via Instagram later that month, began as a long-distance connection. Kramer resides in Nashville with children Jolie and Jace, whom she coparents with ex-husband Mike Caussin, while Russell was located in England.
By May 2023, the pair were happily engaged, and six months later, they welcomed their first baby, son Roman. In July 2024, they tied the knot.
