On her Instagram story on Wednesday afternoon (August 5), Hallie shared a photo of her two sons and wrote: âhappy due date to our sweet rocker đ€ we love you so much!â
Rocker Tommy joins big brother Major Yancey Tyler McCollum, who was born nearly one week before his due date on August 8, 2024. Hallie shared on her Instagram story earlier this week that âParker mentioned the name Rocker a while back so itâs always been on the list!â Hallie wrote. âTommy is from Parkerâs grandpa & Light is my maiden name.â She added on another slide of her Instagram story that afternoon that Brock, Boone, Mace, Teddy, Hayden and Case were also among names up for consideration. Hallie said she âtruly feel(s) so blessed,â as she embraces the first moments as a family of four.
Parker previously explained of his firstborn sonâs name, âitâs dope. I was watching Rose Bowl highlights, and I saw Major Applewhite, [current University of South Alabama Football head coach and former Texas quarterback].â He thought, ââMajor McCollum would be sick.ââ
Parker is one of several country artists to welcome a baby into the family this year. Mitchell Tenpenny and Meghan Patrick, Conner Smith, Runaway Juneâs Natalie Stovall are also expecting additions to the family in 2026, among others in the country music community. See the list of pregnancy announcements here.
