In addition to being an award-winning country music star, Luke Combs is a father of two. The “Beautiful Crazy” singer and his wife, Nicole Hocking, share two sons — Tex Lawrence Combs, whom they welcomed in June 2022, and Beau Lee Combs, who was born in August 2023. While Combs admitted that he was “nervous” about becoming a father for the first time, he was still looking forward to being a hands-on parent. “I have been [plotting] the takeover of the Nashville little league in the next five years — finding the best kids, building this unstoppable little league team,” he joked on The Rob + Holly Show.
Tex Lawrence Combs was born on June 19, 2022. Combs and Hocking revealed the exciting news to fans on Instagram. “Welp, he decided that Father’s Day would be a good time to show up. I couldn’t agree more,” the country singer wrote beside a heartfelt photo of his wife holding their newborn. Combs continued: “Me and @nicolejcombs are over the moon in love with this little guy. Mama and baby are healthy and we’re back home now with family. Life is good. Everyone welcome Tex Lawrence Combs to the world!” Hocking later shared that he weighed 7 lbs., 6 oz. at birth and was named Tex after Combs’ great uncle and Lawrence after her father.
On August 15, 2023, Combs and Hocking welcomed their second baby boy, Beau Lee Combs. “Welcome to the world. We couldn’t love you more,” the couple captioned a joint post on Instagram, which featured a Polaroid of the newborn’s feet. Hocking gave birth two and a half weeks early, so Combs, who was on tour in Australia at the time, missed being in the delivery room for Beau’s arrival. “God, it was a hard day,” the “Fast Car” singer told Zane Lowe in June 2024. “It’s a defining moment in my life for sure. It sums up, in a lot of ways, some of the bad parts of the music business.” In March 2023, Combs announced that he and Hocking were expecting a second son.
