Country singer Zach Bryan is kicking off the new year as a married man, confirming he tied the knot with girlfriend Samantha Leonard after a few months of dating.

On Jan. 1, Bryan, 29, shared a photo to social media holding his bride with the caption “tougher than the rest,” referring to a Bruce Springsteen song of the same name.

In a separate clip posted to the Instagram carousel, Bryan is seen performing a cover of the Springsteen song at what appears to be his wedding reception.

The two wed in a private ceremony in San Sebastian, Spain. However, exact details of when the nuptials took place remains unknown.

Video circulated online of the country star carrying his bride through the streets, before jumping into a convertible with the banner “Just Married” across the trunk.

On Dec. 30, Bryan also shared a photo of what appeared to be his groomsmen prior to the big day, captioning lyrics from the Black Eyed Peas’ song “I Gotta Feeling.”

The newlyweds went public with their relationship in October 2025, when Bryan wished Leonard, 28, a happy birthday in a loving tribute.

“To the only woman who can hike six miles in Chanel flats, skydive over the alps and catch a bigger fish than me all in the same day,” Bryan wrote on Instagram.

“Hope your day was as graceful as you are. about one of the best days’a the year celebrating you. to a runaway one’a these days.”

Bryan was previously romantically linked to well-known podcaster for Barstool Sports, Brianna LaPaglia. The two went through a highly-publicized breakup in late 2024, with LaPaglia saying she was “blindsided” at the time.

Best known for his hit “Something in the Orange” and his duet with Kacey Musgraves “I Remember Everything,” Bryan rose to prominence with his 2023 self-titled album that debuted at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200.

His two other studio albums, “American Heartbreak (2022)” and “The Great American Bar Scene (2024),” also reached top five on that same chart.

In 2023, he was named New Male Artist of the Year by The Academy of Country Music, solidifying his status as a breakout male artist in the country scene.
