“Daddy was right! ...It’s a girl!” Chris and Lauren’s sons exclaimed as they called family members on FaceTime to share the news.

Chris and Lauren announced earlier this year that they’re expecting Baby No. 3. Lauren told PEOPLE at that time that she’s “just gonna go with the belief that it was meant to be, and this little human being is meant to be on this earth. I’m kind of glad that we didn’t have to make the decision. It was just decided for us.” Lauren and Chris recently joined podcast host Kaitlyn Bristowe on an episode of Off The Vine, and said at that time that they planned to post a gender reveal “because I feel like otherwise I’ll accidentally say something,” Lauren said. “We did a gender reveal for us two and the boys…just because we feel like they would’ve been really excited.”

Chris is one of several country artists welcoming a baby into the family in 2025. Others include Scotty McCreery, Lady A’s Hillary Scott, Lady A’s Charles Kelley and more. See the growing list of pregnancy announcements here.
