Mike Fisher stays ‘out of’ Carrie Underwood’s ‘way’ when she is working
Fisher played in the NHL from 1999 until 2018. In 2014, Underwood and Fisher were interviewed by Us Weekly about their relationship.
“She’s actually real busy doing a lot of writing and stuff. I’ve been just kind of hanging out, just kind of being home and enjoying that,” Fisher said. “I stay out of her way. I go golfing or go fishing or something.”
Underwood added, “He stays away. That whole creative process is such a weird thing, and I’ve talked to other people in the music business and friends and what they do and we all kind of have our own ‘isms. I go in and I’m like caffeinated. I get jacked up on caffeine and then I come home and crash.”
Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher complement each other
In an interview on Today’s Country Radio on Apple Music Country, Underwood revealed that while she is quite introverted, her husband is extroverted.
“I don’t want to go to restaurants, I don’t want to travel. I don’t want to go anywhere,” Underwood said. “I love being at home. I would literally never leave my house.”
She added, “I get nervous in crowds and in group settings and stuff like that.”
While Underwood is perfectly content staying “at home,” Fisher is the opposite.
“He’s got a million friends and we’re always hanging out with them. So yeah, I feel like we balance each other out,” the singer said on Today’s Country Radio. “I’m like, ‘We don’t need to go out all the time,’ so I pull him back a little bit. And then he’s like, ‘We need to go somewhere sometimes. Can we please interact with other people?’”
