Kramer’s marriage to Caussin is one of her most well-known relationships. After six years of marriage, Kramer filed for divorce from Caussin in 2021, citing adultery and inappropriate marital conduct.

"I've fought y'all. I've loved hard. I've forgiven. I've put the work in. I've given everything I have, and now I have nothing else to give."

Here’s a look back at Jana Kramer’s dating history. Michael Gambino After two weeks of dating in 2004, Kramer married Michael Gambino. In an emotional October 2016 interview with PEOPLE, Kramer recalled meeting Gambino when she was 19 years old at a Los Angeles coffee shop. She described Gambino, who was 17 years older than her, as “a smooth-talker, very charming, intriguing and obviously older.”

"At the time, I liked that. I felt protected,” Kramer explained, adding that she noticed a scary change in Gambino’s behavior soon after their wedding. He was easily angered and jealous — so much so that Kramer said she frequently spent nights in her car or hiding in the bushes until his mood subsided.

"When I said, 'I can't do this anymore,' he sent me a photo of my dogs on the freeway and said, 'I'm going to let them go if you don't come home,' " she recalled. "He'd kick me out of the house, I'd sleep in the car and then that next morning I'd be with him in bed again."

Kramer said Gambino also physically abused her, and on Aug. 6, 2005, he choked her until she was unconscious and left her bleeding outside of their home. He was later convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to six years in prison.

"I remember praying that night, 'Please, just take me away, I don't want to be here anymore,' " Kramer recalled.

Gambino was released from prison in 2010 and died by suicide two years later.
