Sam Hunt and his wife Hannah Lee Fowler have two children
Sam Hunt is the father of two children!
The country singer and his wife Hannah Lee Fowler welcomed a daughter, Lucy Louise, in May 2022; they announced the arrival of their second child in November 2023.
While she was pregnant with Lucy, Fowler filed for divorce from Hunt, claiming he was guilty of “marital misconduct” and adultery. She withdrew her complaint a few weeks before giving birth, and the couple, who married in 2017, have since reconciled.

Hunt said fatherhood helped put things into perspective, especially after he quickly rose to fame at the age of 28.
“[Fatherhood] it gave me such a sense of purpose – at home and out on the road. A new appreciation for life in general,” the former college quarterback told Audacy’s Katie & Company in September 2022 “I think I’ve gone to a higher level overnight, evolved 10 or 20 years overnight.”
Here’s everything you need to know about Sam Hunt’s two children.

Hunt and Fowler’s first child, daughter Lucy Louise, was born in May 2022. Her first and middle nicknames are family names, and Hunt jokes Katie & Company that he likes “old ladies’ names”.
The “Body Like a Back Road” singer announced Lucy’s birth during his performance at the Stars for Second Harvest benefit concert at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium. He held back tears as he talked about how his daughter had already changed him.
“I think being out here in the music business and on the road has kind of hardened my heart. My heart is definitely a lot harder in a lot of ways since I left that small town,” he shared in a video recorded by Musical chaos magazine. “It’s amazing how that little girl melted it all away overnight a few weeks ago. I have been filled with so much gratitude these past few weeks.”
The “Take Your Time” singer said Katie & Company that he spent his spare time “hanging out with my new baby girl as much as possible”.
“I’m just staring at her, watching her grow little by little because when I leave I realize how much she’s growing,” he said. “And I miss a little bit of that, but when I’m home, I make sure I don’t miss any of it. So I’ve really enjoyed being around her and her mom, and just experiencing the whole wonder of being a new dad.”

In November 2022, Hunt released a music video for “Start Nowhere,” a fast-paced song he co-wrote before he found out he was going to be a father, filled with clips from old home movies. Ever since he welcomed Lucy, his family has been on his mind, and watching the nostalgic footage has helped him reconnect with the important things in life.

“Having a child and seeing my parents at my age raising me, that’s a whole existential experience,” he told PEOPLE. “I don’t think I would have pushed myself to sit down and actually watch all that stuff if I wasn’t trying to put a music video together. It was all a big full-circle moment for me.”
Lucy would later appear in a music video herself, appearing alongside her parents in the March 2023 video for Hunt’s song “Generations”.
Hunt enjoys the time he spends watching his daughter grow and learn, while Lucy begins to “come to life” and recognize his voice, “especially if she’s full and sleepy.”
“I went to hand her over to the babysitter the other day and she grabbed onto parts of my shirt to hold them. And that was a special little moment,” Hunt told reporters in March 2023. “So I think she’s becoming more aware of dad.”
The country star rarely shares photos of his family, but around Lucy’s first birthday, he gave fans a peek into his private life by sharing a slideshow that included adorable photos of him and his daughter. He captioned the post on Instagram: “She’s worth so much more than rubies.”
Lucy has also appeared in several videos on social media. The two-month-old could be seen wrapped up as Hunt spent time with his extended family for the 4th of July, with her famous dad writing: “Wake me up early, be good to my dogs and teach my kids to pray 🇺🇸 .”
On Valentine’s Day 2023, Hunt released a video of Lucy saying “dada” in front of the camera while he played guitar, and later told the media that “my heart melts every time he starts saying that.”
“I’ve just been in heaven for the last few months,” he added.
