Luke Combs and his growing family
Luke Combs and his wife, Nicole Hocking, welcomed their third son in February 2026, expanding the country star’s family to five. Nicole gave birth to the couple’s newest child just weeks before a scheduled public appearance, prompting Combs to step back from planned commitments so he could be with his family.
The couple already share two sons, and outlets have identified the boys by name. In recent days, Combs publicly acknowledged the birth and described the family enjoying those first newborn moments. The arrival also caused Combs to withdraw from an upcoming EA Sports Presents Madden Bowl event; the singer cited the birth as the reason he could not attend.
Why it matters:
- Family life has shaped Combs’ public schedule: he prioritized being home for the birth rather than performing or promoting events.
- The birth reinforces a trend of major stars scaling back touring or promotional commitments to accommodate parenthood and newborn care.
Details at a glance:
- The couple announced the birth in February 2026.
- Combs pulled out of an upcoming event so he could be with his family.
- The family now includes three young sons, and the couple has been sharing glimpses of family life in recent press coverage.
No further medical or personal details about the birth have been released beyond the announcement and Combs’ brief public statements. The family has asked for privacy while they enjoy the newborn period.
