WHAT IS CARRIE UNDERWOOD AFRAID OF?
When discussing her 2020 book "Find Your Path: Honor Your Body, Fuel Your Soul, and Get Strong with the Fit52 Life" with Drew Barrymore on "The Drew Barrymore Show," Underwood confessed her fears. She said:
"It's not like a petrifying fear of turtles. I feel like out of all the animals on the planet, and they are the ones who have bit me the most."
Underwood grew up in the country, and turtles were the easiest to catch because they were slow. Unfortunately, her love for animals made her want to hug them hence, getting bitten by them. She can deal with snakes and spiders but is afraid of turtles.
DOES CARRIE UNDERWOOD HAVE A PET?
Underwood had a dog named Ace. The dog was the ring bearer at her wedding to Mike Fisher in July 2010. Before their wedding, she said:
"He'll be one of the ring bearers — he's like my kid. Ace is such a big part of my life."
Ace wore a powder pink custom tuxedo, taking everyone by surprise for their big day, paired with a white gold and diamond "A" by Johnathon Arndt.
However, in April 2022, Underwood revealed that she had lost her dog on her Instagram page. In the post's caption, the heartbroken singer wrote:
"…he will forever live on in our hearts and be forever missed. He was there for me when I was on my own trying to figure out life when it was at its craziest! He was with me through 3 houses, 6 tours, and 2 kids."
After stating that he was with her through all the highs and lows, Underwood further noted that she would always love him and hoped to see him on the other side.
