Country music fans have something new to celebrate: Scotty McCreery and his wife Gabi have officially announced they’re expecting their second child! The beloved couple, who welcomed their first son Avery in 2022, shared the joyful news with fans in a heartfelt post filled with gratitude, excitement, and family love.
“We’re thrilled to share that Baby McCreery #2 is on the way!” Scotty wrote on social media, alongside a sweet photo of Gabi holding Avery with a tiny pair of baby shoes in her hand. “Avery is going to be a big brother, and we couldn’t feel more blessed.”
The couple’s announcement was met with an outpouring of love from fans and fellow country stars alike, many of whom have followed their love story from the beginning. Scotty and Gabi, high school sweethearts from North Carolina, were married in 2018 and have since become one of country music’s most admired young families.
Scotty, known for his hits like “Five More Minutes,” “You Time,” and “It Matters to Her,” has always been open about how deeply his family life influences his music. Since becoming a father, he’s shared how much fatherhood has changed his perspective—both onstage and off.
“Becoming a dad to Avery was the greatest thing that ever happened to me,” Scotty said in a recent interview. “Now, getting to do it again… it just makes life feel that much fuller.”
Gabi, a pediatric nurse and full-time mom, also expressed her joy and excitement:
“We’re so grateful for this next chapter. Avery has brought so much happiness into our world, and we can’t wait to see him as a big brother.”
As for Avery? At just under two years old, he might not fully understand what’s coming—but according to Scotty, he’s already showing signs of being a gentle and curious big brother-in-training.
“He keeps pointing at Gabi’s belly and saying ‘baby’—so we think he’s catching on!”
The due date has not yet been publicly revealed, but Scotty hinted that the new arrival is expected later this year. Until then, he’ll continue balancing fatherhood and touring, with Gabi and Avery often joining him on the road—a routine that’s quickly become part of their family rhythm.
With another baby on the way, the McCreery home is about to get even more joyful—and a little louder.
Congratulations to Scotty, Gabi, and little Avery on the growing family. Country music’s favorite young couple is turning the page on another beautiful chapter—and fans couldn’t be happier to be along for the ride.
