Nashville who is maddies real father

Rayna and Maddie have a heart-to-heart, mending their relationship. Maddie soon announces that she wants to get to know Deacon better. She and Rayna go to the Bluebird where Deacon is performing, and they meet up afterwards. Deacon and Maddie realize they have much in common.

They start to meet up for guitar lessons and she performs a duet with him at her open mic performance, which angers Teddy, leading to a confrontation between the two men. When Deacon experiences writer's block he turns to Maddie for help and they write a song together. At Juliette's induction ceremony at the Grand Ole Opry Maddie goes to see Juliette in her dressing room and greets Deacon with a hug, but Maddie tells him Juliette already knows they're father and daughter.

When Maddie is playing guitar Teddy walks in to talk to her about her feelings towards Luke and Rayna's engagement. She tells him that she can't talk to him about it because she wanted Deacon and Rayna to get married and she knows that he hates Deacon. Maddie goes dresser shopping with Deacon and is upset about him leaving for tour and Rayna's engagement to Luke. Maddie and Deacon then go back to Deacon's house to assemble the dresser and tells him that she is upset with him for not fighting for Rayna.

He then tells her that he proposed to her and she said no. Maddie continues down her rebellious path and although Rayna and Deacon eventually become a couple after she splits from Luke, she continues to cause trouble and becomes friends with the daughter of Deacon's sober sponsor and business partner.

Maddie wishes to be emancipated and is granted it after lying about Deacon being abusive. However, after she travels to New York to pursue making it big Deacon comes to her rescue after Rayna tells him about Vince Pierce, who she worked with in her early career.

Maddie moves home with her family and starts to mend her ways, beginning a relationship with street musician Clayton Carter. When Rayna is involved in a car crash Maddie feels guilty for being so horrible to her but Rayna eventually succumbs to her injuries and dies.

After performing a tribute to her late mother at the CMT Awards, the media starts to take a interest in her and Juliette takes her to New York for interviews, where she changes her stage name to Maddie Jaymes in honor of her mother.

Meanwhile, though we — and Gunny — see Will in bed with a girl at one point in the episode, he later makes eye contact with a dude at a club, then gives a subtle-yet-frantic shake of the head that sends the guy walking past him. I tried using my mojo to make Will and Gunnar kiss again, especially when Chris Carmack was rocking those black boxer briefs, but even my powers have limits, guys.

The U. Rayna tells her daughters that she and Deacon are an item; both seem OK with it, but Maddie acts a little aloof. And to see Ms. Get it, mama!

Deacon confronts her after the performance, and she affirms what Maddie told him. Both Britton and Chip Esten are so, so good here; rewatch, in particular, for the way she works overtime to keep her voice level and quiet as he starts spinning into the universe. Oh, Deke… He wakes up there the next morning, attacks Teddy Tedster was totally in the right, but I loved watching them throwdown, regardless and pukes off his own front porch before Coleman, Gunnar and Scarlett show up and beg him to stop drinking.

A few drunken punches and gulping sobs later, Deacon is alone with his sponsor. And when she sees him, he makes a beeline for his car. In the ninth episode of season 5, Rayna dies onscreen following injuries from a car crash. Following the birth of his daughter, Avery departs the band and Gunnar and Scarlett continue on as a duo. Gunnar also falls for a technician called Erin and has a short fling with her as well as singer Autumn Chase while Scarlett realizes she is still in love with Gunnar.

They eventually get back together. The bad news is that he still found a way to land himself in jail.
