As husband and wife, they've created a romance for the ages and a model marriage that includes two beautiful daughters. Since meeting and falling in love on their Spontaneous Combustion tour in 1996, Faith and Tim have become known in Nashville as the new Mr. and Mrs. Country Music.

Faith Hill and Tim McGraw's signature duet--the multiple-award-winning "It's Your Love"--is the love theme to a relationship in perfect harmony.
