Congratulations to the happy couple on their growing family! Country icon Thomas Rhett and wife Lauren Akins are expecting their fourth child.
It was an extra special Mother’s Day weekend for Rhett and Akins as they shared the news with the world that they are expecting a daughter. “Well… we are pregnant again!” Rhett wrote alongside a photo of the couple smiling together as Akins showed off her budding baby bump.
“Tonight when I was on stage in Fort Worth about to play ‘to the guys that date my girls’ my wife talked to me in my (ear monitors) and said ‘you can tell them if you want’ so anyways, now you know,” he continued. “We are pumped to be having our 4th girl!”
To conclude the post, the country star joked about his future as a father. “Feel free to buy all the merch you want, knowing that all the proceeds are going straight to all these weddings I’ll be paying for one day! Love you so much @laur_akins we always wanted a big thanksgiving table.”
The happy couple tied the knot in 2012 and have since welcomed three daughters: Lennon Love, 14 months, Ada James, 3½, and Willa Gray, 5.
Akins also shared the news on her own Instagram writing, “SURPRISE!! he just couldn’t wait any longer, so @thomasrhettakins told our newest little secret onstage at @billybobstexas in Ft. Worth (my mama’s hometown) just in time for Mother’s Day.” She wrote the caption alongside an adorable photo of the couple holding up four fingers to represent their growing family.
“Akins family expanding in November 2021 with our FOURTH baby girl,” she wrote with several pink heart emojis.
