“When I bought this house in 2000, I was looking for a place that would be my sanctuary,” she previously told PEOPLE. “The minute I stepped foot inside, Iknewthis was the place. Even when I moved to Oklahoma, I just couldn’t part with this house.”

Yearwood added, “Garth and I would make the house home base when we were in Nashville working on music or visiting friends.”

The 4.42-acre property was listed in May 2023 for $4.5 million. It was previously listed for sale in 2014.

In the lawsuit filed against Brooks on Wednesday, Oct. 3, Brooks' former hairstylist and makeup artist, who is identified as “Jane Roe,” alleges that the singer raped her and committed multiple instances of sexual assault in 2019, includingspeaking openly about sex and related fantasies, changed clothes in her presence, exposed his genitals and buttocks, and sending sexually explicit text messages.

Roe also alleges that Brooks' legal team found out about her plans to sue, causing him to file apreemptive complaint as “John Doe” on Friday, Sept. 13, with claims that Roe “was a lying extortionist who intended on destroying his professional reputation.”

While Yearwood, his wife of nearly 20 years, has yet to speak out about the allegations,Brooks claimed in a statement with PEOPLEthat “for the last two months, I have been hassled to no end with threats, lies, and tragic tales of what my future would be if I did not write a check for many millions of dollars.

“It has been like having a loaded gun waved in my face,” his statement continued. “Hush money, no matter how much or how little, is still hush money. In my mind, that means I am admitting to behavior I am incapable of — ugly acts no human should ever do to another. We filed suit against this person nearly a month ago to speak out against extortion and defamation of character. We filed it anonymously for the sake of families on both sides.”

“I want to play music tonight. I want to continue our good deeds going forward. It breaks my heart these wonderful things are in question now,” he said. “I trust the system, I do not fear the truth, and I am not the man they have painted me to be.“If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, please contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673) or go torainn.org.
