Dan + Shay and Their Spouses Are Relationship Goals: Inside Their Beautiful Home Lives
Dan + Shay are a close-knit country singing duo, but they also treasure time with their wives.
You know what they say: Behind every great man is a great woman, and with the achievements obtained by The Voice’s upcoming Coaches, Dan + Shay, we’re betting their wives are pretty spectacular.
Who are Dan + Shay?
Friends Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney make up the ultra-successful pop-country singing duo Dan + Shay. The Grammy Award and CMT Music Award winners will soon be shaking things up on The Voice as the first-ever Coaching duo for Season 25, sitting alongside Coaches Reba McEntire, Chance the Rapper, and John Legend.
With hits like “Tequila” and “When I Pray For You,” Dan + Shay are no strangers to The Voice. Both appeared as Battle Advisors to country legend and recently retired Coach Blake Shelton in Season 20. The pair also performed the song “Speechless” in Season 15 alongside winner Chevel Shepherd.

Smyers, who is from Pennsylvania, and Mooney, who is from Arkansas, moved to Nashville to pursue their country music dreams before meeting and becoming the dynamic duo they are today.
It would also be where Smyers met his future spouse.
Who is Dan Smyers' spouse?
Smyers and his future wife, Abby Law, met at a Nashville-based animal rescue center in 2013, according to Country Living. Three years later, Smyers proposed to Abby at Waikiki Beach, as announced on Abby’s Instagram page.
“There are few words to fully convey this feeling of complete happiness,” wrote Abby. “Daniel Smyers, knowing and loving you has been the most rewarding part of my life thus far, and continuing our journey together as your wife will be an honor.”
Their 2017 Nashville wedding — as featured in the super sweet video for Dan + Shay’s “Speechless” — included the pair exchanging vows as the sun set, reps told PEOPLE. Both dog lovers also had a registry to include donations for a local dog-fostering center, Proverbs 12:10 Animal Rescue.
“The father to our canines. The keeper of my heart. The hardest-working man I know. My best friend. My partner. My husband,” Abby wrote on Instagram. “Thank you for making my dreams come true and choosing me to walk beside you in this life.”
While husband and wife share no children, their fur babies, Chief, Joy, and Ghost, were part of the wedding party (they’ve since adopted two more). Oh, and Shay Mooney was there, too.
Abby has appeared in a handful of Dan + Shay music videos, including “Nothin’ Like You” and “10,000 Hours” featuring Justin Bieber.
Mr. and Mrs. Smyers work closely with multiple organizations associated with animal rescue, including Wags & Walks Rescue Nashville and the International Fund for Animal Welfare.
And let us add, the couple’s Christmas cards with their pooches are everything!
Who is Shay Mooney's spouse?
Mooney met Hannah Billingsley, a former Miss Arkansas, after she reportedly reached out to him on social media in March 2015, according to Arkansas Bride. Days later, they met at a lounge in Mooney’s native state, which was already on the Dan + Shay music tour.
“From the very first time I saw her, I knew I wanted to marry her,” Mooney told PEOPLE.
In January 2017, the couple welcomed their first child, Asher James. In October of that year, they tied the knot on Shay’s family farm, against the backdrop of Arkansas’s rolling hills.
“Shay is everything I never knew I needed,” said Hannah, per Arkansas Bride. “I truly never imagined being with a man in the music industry, so it took me some time to come around. But God had other plans. Shay was and is patient as the day is long and makes me laugh at every turn. He’s my person.”
Then-9-month-old Asher and bandmate Smyers were part of the couple’s nuptials.
The Mooneys welcomed their second son, Ames Alexander, in February 2020 and a third baby boy, Abram Shay Mooney, in January 2023.
When not with her three sons, Hannah hosts Unexpected with Hannah Love, a faith-based podcast about God calling unexpected people to do extraordinary things.
We’re extraordinarily excited to see more of Abby + Hannah as Dan + Shay prep for their Coach roles on The Voice. In the meantime, the men will be taking their love songs on the road this summer for a coast-to-coast music tour.
