Country singer Brantley Gilbert made headlines as he halted his concert abruptly upon hearing the news that his wife was giving birth on their tour bus. The 39-year-old musician was in the midst of performing at a concert in Tupelo, Mississippi, when he was summoned off stage for an unforeseen “emergency backstage” situation.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Gilbert revealed that the emergency was related to his wife, Amber Gilbert, who had delivered their third child on the tour bus. The post included a video capturing the emotional moment of Gilbert informing his fans about the birth of their baby and images of Amber holding their newborn with pride as Gilbert looked on.
Despite the unexpected turn of events, Gilbert returned to the stage to the delight of his fans, announcing the arrival of their new family member. The audience erupted in cheers as Gilbert shared the joyous news of becoming a father of three.
Married since 2015, Brantley and Amber Gilbert are already parents to son Barrett and daughter Braylen. The couple had announced their third pregnancy last May, with Gilbert expressing his admiration for Amber’s strength and resilience throughout the birthing process.
In a touching message, Gilbert expressed his gratitude to their support team and the Tupelo community for their love and assistance during this significant family event. He praised his wife for her incredible strength and love, acknowledging her as a shining example of a powerful woman.
The country star’s Instagram post was flooded with well-wishes and congratulations from fans and followers. While the name of their new baby boy was not disclosed, it’s evident that the Gilbert family is overflowing with love and excitement as they embark on this new chapter together.
