Caregiver Finds New Love, Partner Embraces Disabled Spouse

Amanda Robinson's life was irrevocably altered in February 2021 when her husband, Matt, sustained severe brain damage in a truck accident on the I-17 in Phoenix. Previously married for 15 years and raising two sons, Amanda became Matt's full-time caregiver after the crash left him with significant memory and behavioral impairments. He lost his independence, sight, and struggled with persistent hallucinations, often believing he was still living before the accident.

After dedicating four years to Matt's round-the-clock care, Amanda made the difficult decision in 2024 to move him into a nearby care facility. This allowed her to maintain regular visits while seeking stability for herself and her sons. In April 2025, Amanda met country singer Josh Roy. Despite her situation, Josh embraced her story, even reading about Matt's condition and expressing respect for him. Josh began accompanying Amanda to the care home, offering support, playing music for Matt, and assisting with appointments.
