Sam Hunt and his ex-wife Hannah Lee Fowler are expecting their first child together. During his appearance as a guest presenter on Country Countdown USA, the 37-year-old artist revealed for the first time about the new addition to his life. During an interview with broadcaster Lon Helton, he mentioned Fowler’s pregnancy with a baby girl. According to the singer,
“I’m expecting a baby in around 8 weeks.” I set aside two months at the end of May and the beginning of June. This year has really revolved around that significant event in my life.”
Hunt has already sought advice on parenting from friends and colleagues, including country singer Russell Dickerson, who has a one-year-old boy with his wife, Kailey Dickerson.

Hunt revealed,
“I ran into Russell Dickerson a few weeks ago; we chatted about parenthood, and I attempted to pick his brain.” I’ve had a number of friends who have had their first children in the previous four to five years. So I believe I’m prepared.”
Before their divorce, Sam Hunt and Hannah Lee Fowler were a long-time pair.
The 23-year-old musician and Hannah Lee Fowler began dating in 2008 when Hunt was in Alabama. He had previously played football for the University of Alabama in Birmingham from 2005 to 2007, which is most likely how they met. The pair separated for a while but reconciled in 2016. Hunt proposed in January 2017, and the couple later became engaged. The pair married in April of 2017.
In a recent interview, Sam Hunt said that the couple has yet to decide on a name for their daughter and would most likely not do so until she is born. Sam Hunt also told Helton that they aren’t thinking about naming her yet since they want to meet her and pick what name is appropriate for her. More than Hunt’s recent participation in the radio program, Fowler and Hunt have not revealed any other information about their future child.
The pregnancy of Fowler’s first child initially came to light when she filed for divorce from Sam Hunt in Tennessee on February 18, 2022. They had been married for almost five years. Irreconcilable conflicts were highlighted in paperwork acquired by NBC News, and Fowler claimed she was expecting a child with the singer in May. Adultery and unsuitable marital behavior were also stated as causes for the divorce in the divorce documents. In the petition, Fowler claimed alimony, child support, and primary custody of their kid, as well as an equitable partition of their joint property.
