Singer Ruthie Collins Opens Up About Wedding to Rory Mitchinson and Their New Baby: 'Happened Very Fast' (Exclusive)


Singer Ruthie Collins opens up about her March 20, 2024 wedding to husband Rory Mitchinson and the couple's 5-month-old daughter Esme Winslow.

“We knew we would want a family, but I was a little older, so we had already decided that we needed to start trying earlier than we probably would have if it wasn’t for my age,” says Collins, who married Mitchinson on March 20, 2024. That best reason is now known as a 5-month-old little girl by the name of Esme Winslow Mitchinson and it is she that served as the muse for Collins when she co- wrote her new single “Barefoot No Fences,” premiering exclusively on PEOPLE. “I got to grow up on this big farm where obviously there were no fences, and my sister and I would just run out in the backyard and play and go down to the creek and we were safe,” she says of the touching song she wrote alongside fellow songwriter Kristy Osmunson.
