Thomas Rhett Baby Update: Lauren Is 36 Weeks and ‘100 Percent Smoke Show’
Thomas Rhett and wife Lauren are just weeks away from the birth of their new baby girl, but they've managed to make time for a little fun in the sun before they're wading through how to manage a newborn and a toddler together.
Rhett offered fans a pregnancy update on Wednesday (July 12), sharing a photo of him and his wife somewhere on a beach, posing in the water, with a glowing Lauren showing off her baby bump in a bikini.
"Can't believe we will have a newborn not too long from now, 36 weeks pregnant and 100% smoke show," the "Die a Happy Man" singer says, raving about how attractive his wife is. Baby Girl Akins is due on August 8.
“We don’t have any idea what we’re doing at all,” Rhett (real name Thomas Rhett Akins Jr.) says of parenting. “Willa’s been home for almost a month and I feel like we kind of got spoiled on the front end because Willa sleeps like 12 hours a night, so that’s not gonna happen when the newborn comes.”
Rhett and Lauren brought their toddler, Willa Gray, home from African in May following a lengthy adoption process. Though Willa has no idea that she's about to be a big sister, the country star knows she'll be a good one, telling Taste of Country last month: “I think Willa is gonna really be her rock and her big sister.”
Rhett is currently on his 2017 Home Team Tour and is gearing up for the release of his new album in the fall, with theNo. 1 song "Craving You" with Maren Morris serving as its lead single.
