Brantley Gilbert just couldn’t keep the secret any longer! During a recent podcast interview, the country star accidentally let slip some exciting news about Baby No. 3, and fans couldn’t be happier.
As he and his wife Amber prepare to welcome their third child, Gilbert opened up about fatherhood, faith, and the joys of raising a growing family.
Between revealing the baby’s gender and dropping a brand-new album, it’s clear that life is busier than ever for this country music icon—but he wouldn’t have it any other way!

Amber, who is already “well into” her pregnancy, is calling the shots in their household these days.
“We’re playing by her rules,” Gilbert laughed during the interview, but added, “I slipped up and told folks.” And what exactly did he spill? That Baby No. 3 is going to be a boy!
Brantley and Amber already have two kids – son Barrett, 6, and daughter Hendrix, 5 – and now their third little one will be joining the crew.
Although the new baby was a bit of a surprise, neither parent seems fazed by growing their family.
In fact, Gilbert hinted that raising a large family feels just right for them. He emphasized the importance of balancing their roles as both parents and friends, creating a home where love and discipline go hand in hand.
The 39-year-old singer, known for hits like “ Over When We’re Sober ,” explained, “We do know the name… I said ‘him’ a time or two, so it is a boy.”
Gilbert’s excitement for their upcoming addition is clear, but he also took a moment to reflect on what fatherhood means to him.
For Gilbert, parenting goes beyond the day-to-day responsibilities. He sees raising kids as a chance to instill the right values in them, especially in today’s unpredictable world.
The country star is all about faith, family, and country, which echoes throughout his music and personal life.
During the podcast, Gilbert opened up about building a self-sufficient farm in Georgia.
What started as a practical move for food security turned into an opportunity for him to teach his kids how to be resourceful and resilient.
It’s not just about being prepared for the future—it’s about showing them how to live with integrity and self-sufficiency.
“A lot of things going on in the world today make it clear that we have a unique opportunity to raise kids in the right home, with the right ideals, and send ’em on their way with a good moral compass and their faith intact,” Gilbert said.
While fans have had a chance to catch up with Gilbert’s personal life, they’ve also been treated to some new music.
His latest album, Tattoos , dropped just last week on September 13.
The album reflects the singer’s evolution as both a musician and a man.
Fans who might have lost track of Gilbert over the last few years could be surprised by this new, more introspective side of him.
One track in particular, “Me and My House,” which features Struggle Jennings and Demun Jones, dives deep into Gilbert’s philosophy on life.
The song’s lyrics resonate with his strong belief in faith, family, and standing up for what’s right. “Man I can’t watch the news / It’s safe to say we lost our way / If you wanna know the truth / I think it’s ’cause we lost our faith,” he sings in the powerful ballad.
It’s clear that becoming a dad has shaped Gilbert in profound ways.
He’s not just focused on his music career or his farm – he’s determined to raise kids who are strong, independent, and grounded in their beliefs.
His passion for his family shines through in his interviews and his songs, and Baby No. 3 is already getting a glimpse of that love and dedication.
Though Gilbert may have let the gender slip out earlier than planned, there’s no doubt that he and Amber are beyond excited to welcome their newest family member.
As they continue to grow their family and navigate life together, one thing’s for sure – this Georgia boy is all about faith, family, and a whole lot of country music .
Fans of Brantley Gilbert can expect to see more from him not just as a musician but as a devoted family man who’s ready to take on fatherhood yet again!
