Taylor Sheridan Is Married to Model & Actress Nicole Muirbrook

Taylor Sheridan is a real-life Texas cowboy, and it is no surprise that he married someone who shares his passion, a cowgirl, Nicole Muirbrook, who hails from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Muirbrook was born on March 19, 1983, to blue-collar parents of German and Mexican/Lebanese descent, and they taught her and her younger brother to be kind-hearted.

The brunette grew up a tomboy and participated in basketball in high school. Her other activities included riding horses on her grandparents' ranch near Jackson, Wyoming, for hours.

As a youngster, it was evident that she would end up in the spotlight. With good genes from both her parents that gave her striking physical features, she was thrust into the fashion world.

Muirbrook was discovered while shopping with her mother at a local mall. They were approached by an agent from the reputable modeling agency NEXT, who offered her the opportunity that would change her life.

It took a little convincing from her mom, but she eventually accepted the offer and became an international model. This move brought Muirbrook immense success and independence that served her well in her teenage years and twenties.

As a model, she has globe-trotted throughout Europe and has graced the covers of renowned magazines such as Vogue and Marie Claire, among others. Additionally, like her actor husband, she is also an actress best known for the popular sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" (2005) and "Dark Blue" (2009).

Taylor Sheridan & His Relationship with His Wife

Muirbrook and Taylor Sheridan met through an acting class and connected through their shared passion for the cowboy culture. They began dating shortly after and cohabitated in a house in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley.

The couple dated for a few years before walking down the aisle on September 18, 2013. This is Muirbrook's second marriage, as she was previously married to film editor Christian Wagner, but not much is known about their union.

Wagner is known for editing "Man on Fire" featuring Denzel Washington, Dakota Fanning, and others. He also edited "The Suicide Squad" featuring Viola Davis, Margot Robbie, Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Idris Elba, and others.

Muirbrook and Sheridan have been married for nine years and share one child. They often share sweet posts about each other online, including their milestones.

In September 2020, she commemorated the duo's seventh wedding anniversary on Instagram alongside a picture of them kissing on the couch and another from their ceremony. She captioned the post:

"To the man, I get to do life with. Thank you for the countless smiles, crazy adventures, and all the things in between. I couldn't ask for a better husband or father to our son. Happy anniversary baby. I love you."

Muirbrook also celebrated the couple's eighth anniversary online in 2021. She posted a photo of them packing up on the PDA in public and wrote: "Till we are old and gray, Baby. Happy Anniversary to us."

That same year in July, Muirbrook paid a birthday tribute to her famous spouse on Instagram alongside a cozy snapshot of them outdoors. She penned, "Wishing you a day that brings the same kind of happiness and joy you bring to me, Happy Birthday, baby."

Sheridan and his beloved beautiful wife celebrated Valentine's Day in 2022 with a black and white picture of them posing at a horse stall. Muirbrook also marked their first date night anniversary in March of that year alongside a throwback image of them sitting in the backseat.

Once again, the actress paid a warm birthday tribute to the actor in July 2022 alongside a black and white photo of the beaming in an embrace. She expressed:

"You are my love story, you are words that fill my pages. I love you, baby. Happiest Birthday."

Taylor Sheridan & Nicole Muirbrook Share a Son Whom They Are a Raising at One of Their Ranches

Muirbrook and Taylor Sheridan share a son named Gus, whom they welcomed on September 23, 2010. In a September 2018 interview, the proud dad revealed that after finding success as a screenwriter, he realized acting was not what he wanted to do for the long haul for his son's sake:

"I didn't want to raise my son in LA, and I didn't want to have to look at him in the eye and tell him I couldn't take him to a baseball game because I had an audition for a Windex commercial."

Sheridan and Muirbrook are raising their only child away from the prying eyes of Hollywood. The father of one once shared that their son enjoys the ranch life in Texas.

According to his mother, Gus spends much of his time outdoors, "fishing with his buds or roller-skating in the barn." He is rarely cooped up indoors playing video games or on his phone.

The mother of one shared a photo of her and her son in October 2021, who was pictured holding a big fish on a boat. Aside from fishing, young Gus is also into music; in September 2020, his mother posted a snapshot of him playing guitar.

The following year in September 2021, Muirbrook paid a birthday tribute to her child on Instagram, who was pictured posing with his friends. She captioned the post: "Happy everything, son. We love you."

Muirbrook posted a father-and-son duo image while celebrating Father's Day in June 2021 and expressed how fortunate she was to share her "life, love, and parenthood" with Sheridan." In December of that year, the family woman shared a family photo outdoors on Christmas Day and wished her followers well.

Sheridan and his wife used to live in her hometown in Utah, but they moved to Texas, where they own two ranches: the Bosque Ranch and the 6666 Ranch. The family of three are owners of many animals on both ranches, including horses, chickens, dogs, and cats, and Muirbrook admitted she loved rescuing strays.
