How Amy Grant And Vince Gill Really Got Together
It sounds like it was a case of divine timing for Amy Grant and Vince Gill, as it took quite a while from the day they first met to become a couple. Speaking to ABC News in 2003, the now couple confirmed they first met in 1994 when they met up to film the music video for their duet, "House of Love." "I think that a part of me loved him instantly," Grant admitted of Gill, "I felt like I knew him instantly. I was so moved by him as a human being that I went up behind him and just hugged him as hard as I could while he was singing. I just said, 'I just needed to hug you all night.'" Gill also revealed he was pretty taken with Grant and started to dance with her upon that first meeting. But, with both being married and strong in their faith, they claimed nothing romantic ever happened — though Gill admitted he always felt he and Grant would be together one day, even writing the song "Whenever You Come Around" about their situation.
Gill's marriage was the first to crumble, with Janis Oliver filing for divorce in 1997 and blaming irreconcilable differences as the reason for their breakup, per Chicago Tribune. As noted by Cross Rhythms, around the same time, rumors were flying that Gill's feelings for Grant may potentially have gotten in the way of his marriage.
