Episode Details

Trace Adkins spills the shocking details of a wild moment from his past—his ex-wife pulled a gun on him during a heated argument, shooting him under the left arm, with the bullet exiting under his right, piercing both lungs and his heart. He even stepped toward her, asking for the gun, right before she fired. Though he went into shock, he remembers getting up and falling back down. Doctors say he survived because it was a close-range shot—no time for the bullet to expand. The real agony came later, during surgery to repair the damage. Adkins believes she didn’t mean to kill him, and ultimately chose not to press charges. This happened in 1994, during his separation from his second wife. He’s been married four times and is now happily wed to actress Victoria Pratt.
