What’s the secret to a long and legendary life? For Willie Nelson, it might just be his “pet rattler.” At 92, the icon recently shared the depth of his appreciation for his wife of 34 years, Annie D’Angelo, calling her his everything: “my lover, wife, nurse, doctor, and bodyguard.” He openly credits her as the force that has kept him healthy, active, and grounded through it all.
