Taylor Mayne Pearl Brooks is not just any ordinary person. She is the eldest daughter of Gerth Brooks, a legendary country singer who retired for a while to care for his three daughters. Taylor ushered the new fatherhood chapter to Brooks, explaining why he has maintained a very close bond with her.
When the singer welcomed his daughter, he realized that nothing else mattered. During an interview with Orlando Sentinel, the star revealed that his ex-wife, Taylor’s mother collapsed when she was pregnant with her. After the incident, the doctors advised her to take a rest and the rest of the journey had no more complications.
While Taylor is the eldest in the family, she has kept a low life, away from the spotlight. However, in 2019, when her father’s documentary was on air, he gave a glimpse of Taylor’s life, revealing that she was in her second year of a theological studies master’s degree at Vanderbilt University.
While Taylor has been keen not to reveal her personal life, there is a possibility she has children of her own. During 2021 Mother’s Day, her sister would not hide her joy in wishing her a happy day. Allie went on to reference Taylor as the best mother.
Sandy Mahl and Gert walked down the aisle in 1986, but their marriage did not last for long. They separated in 1999 and finalized their divorce in 2001.
