Reba McEntire is gearing up to marry fellow actor Rex Linn, but she appears to be dismissing the counsel of friends regarding a prenuptial agreement. The 70-year-old country music icon, known for her extensive career and impressive $95 million fortune, is preparing for a wedding without the financial safeguard that a prenup could provide.
Sources close to McEntire indicate that this decision has raised concerns among her inner circle. With Linn’s net worth estimated at $5 million, many are worried about the potential financial repercussions should the marriage not succeed. An insider expressed, “Rex is worth $5 million to her $95 million, and that’s troubling to a lot of people in her world if she’s so keen to go through with the wedding without a prenup.”
While those close to her are supportive of her happiness, they also fear the implications of an unequal financial landscape. McEntire is reportedly confident in her relationship, believing that discussions about finances could undermine the foundation of trust and love they have built.
She reportedly perceives Linn as her soulmate, suggesting that she does not feel the need to secure her assets with a legal agreement. However, the source highlighted the reality that relationships can change, and her past experiences with two previous marriages could serve as a reminder of the importance of protecting oneself financially.
Despite the concerns raised by friends, McEntire’s focus remains on her upcoming nuptials, which were publicly announced during the 2025 Emmy Awards. As she prepares for this next chapter in her life, one can hope that her optimism and love will guide her future endeavors.
