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. Luke Combs' Pregnant Wife Nicole Debuts Baby Bump at 2023 ACM Awards: 'We're in the Trenches' According to Hocking, the couple would love to have a "small army" of kids. "We decided on 4, max. But we also may stop at 2, who knows?" she wrote on Instagram in May 2023. After he released his concept album, Fathers & Sons, in 2024, he told PEOPLE that his sons had been the inspiration behind it. “I wanted them to be able to reference later on in their life that even at the height of my success they were still my number one priority," Combs said. "If anyone’s dad had the opportunity to do something like that, I think that they would take it. At least I would hope so. I did it for them.” Here's everything to know about Luke Combs' two sons. Tex Lawrence Combs, 2 Nicole Combs Instagram 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. Luke Combs Confesses He's a 'Little Nervous' to Become a Father: 'I Got a Lot on My Plate' Beau Lee Combs, 1 Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic On Aug. 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 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. “Joining the 2 under 2 club!” he wrote alongside a photo montage featuring Tex Lawrence wearing a “Big Brother” shirt and a preview of his new song "Take You With Me” playing in the background. Hocking debuted her baby bump at the 2023 ACM Awards in a dazzling silver dress, and the couple shared how they were feeling with PEOPLE. "We're getting ready," Combs said. "We're just in it. We're in the trenches, taping grenades. [We're] excited for the second one. They're gonna be close [in age], but I feel like we'll be in practice." Luke Combs and Wife Nicole Expecting Another Baby Boy: 'Joining the 2 Under 2 Club!' During an Instagram Story Q&A, a fan asked Hocking about the new baby's nursery. She revealed that since they only live in a two-bedroom house, he wouldn't have his individual one. Instead, “his nursery will be our room until he moves in with Tex.” When a different fan was surprised at the modest size of their home despite Combs' success, Hocking joked that they were “basic af” and that she “low-key loved” rooming with her sister as a kid.
