Inside Maren Morris & Ryan Hurd’s Nashville Love Story

How do you feel about this lovely couple?

Ryan Hurd and Maren Morris met before they were both topping the Billboard country charts. It all started as friends, and they connected on songwriting.

It was back in 2013 when they first met and they were put together into a studio session to write what became Tim McGraw’s song “Last Turn Home.” After they first met, Morris told People that the pair had incredible writing chemistry.

“It was the start of a wonderful writing relationship,” she said. “It’s one of my favorite songs that we’ve ever been a part of. It’s just crazy to look back on that moment where we were both just songwriters, solely, and that song has held so much weight over the years. The meaning behind the song actually means more now to me and Ryan, in a weird way — years later, it sort of hit us what the song meant.”
