Explaining his family life, Trout said,

"Being a father and husband means everything to me. Besides being a Christian, it is the most important aspect of my life."

"It’s a great responsibility — realizing that every decision I make affects my wife and kids — but like any relationship, I’ve learned that if you take time to be engaged with your family, teach your kids what’s right when they’re young while continuing to “date” your wife … God will take care of the rest."

Trout and his gorgeous wife have maintained a perfect balance between parenthood and hectic careers. He explained,

"It’s really a collective sacrifice. It’s not just me having to make a balancing act, but it’s also asking my wife and kids to make sacrifices to be without their husband and father for weeks at a time. The biggest thing for my family is that I reassure them that our sacrifice isn’t in vain and it doesn’t go unnoticed."

"I try to make sure they understand what I do is for our future, and that they are loved every second of every day, even if I’m not home."

As the couple is living a wonderful life without any rumors of divorce, we wish them all the very best in their future endeavors.
