Congratulations to HARDY and his wife, Caleigh — they are expecting their first baby! HARDY initially broke the news at a No. 1 party for Kenny Chesney’s “Take Her Home” (which HARDY helped write.) Later, the soon-to-be mom and dad shared their big news with a carousel of photos that were captioned; “Baby HARDY arriving February, 2025!”

Blake Shelton teamed up with an organization called ‘Music Will,’ and together, they donated $5,000 worth of musical equipment to his hometown high school in Ada, Oklahoma. During the donation presentation, the Austin singer explained how important music is and he was honored to help give the kids this opportunity.
