Read on to delve into their careers and net worths following the star’s death…

Kyle Jacobs’ net worth

Kyle had a fortune of $10 million at the time of his death, Celebrity Net Worth reveals.

This was accumulated through his career as a performer and songwriter, and he has written tracks for a number of big artists.

He is a writer for Curb Music and has penned hits for Garth Brooks, Wynonna, Tim McGraw, Trace Adkins, Darius Rucker, and more.

His country music track with Garth Brooks, More Than A Memory, shot to number one on the Billboard country music singles chart.

Kellie Pickler’s net worth

In comparison, Kellie Picker has a lower net worth of $4 million according to Celebrity Net Worth.

She rose to fame on American Idol, coming sixth in 2006. In that year, Taylor Hicks won the competition and Katharine McPhee was runner-up.

The star released her debut album Small Town Girl in the same year, which featured the singles Red High Heels, I Wonder, and Things That Never Cross a Man’s Mind.

She has since dropped three more albums, Kellie Pickler in 2008, 100 Proof in 2012, and The Woman I Am a decade ago, in 2013.

Aside from performing, she won Dancing with the Stars in 2013 and co-hosted the chat show Pickler & Ben from 2017 to 2019 with Ben Aaron.

Inside their marriage

The pair met at a Nashville bar in 2007 and were introduced by a mutual friend. They instantly hit it off and got engaged three years later, in July 2010.

Kelly and Kyle got married the following year, on New Year’s Day 2011. They wed in Antigua and the whole affair was very spontaneous.

They did have a lavish wedding planned in Nashville but decided to scrap it and jet off last minute, which the Red High Heels star said was “perfect”.

“I packed the wedding dress and he packed an outfit. We flew there and we didn’t know what kind of cake we were going to get,” she told Us Weekly.

The pair don’t have any kids but revealed they became parents to two small puppies in 2019 who took up all their time.
