The father-of-three then recalled the night Abram was born in full detail, sharing: ‘We were four songs into the set and my tour manager comes over and pulls my arm. The first thing that came to my mind was, “This is a security threat.”
“He looked at me and gave me a stern growl like ‘Come on.’ He was like “Baby”. He mouthed ‘honey’ to me and when he did, I dropped the mic and everything and ran,” he recalled.
Brantley continues, “The minute I got on the bus, I washed my hands real quick and the minute I knelt down next to her, her water ran out. I looked at the midwife and she looked at me again and I was wide eyed. She says, “We’re going to have a baby.”

The couple had jokingly prepared for just that scenario: “We joked that if it happened during a show, I’d just jump off the stage, we’d have it and I’d run back there and hold a baby up like The Lion Kinglike Simba,” he shared, adding that “none of us thought this would actually happen.”
Brantley also calls his wife “the strongest woman I’ve ever met. I can’t say enough about her.”
As for how baby Abram is doing, the proud papa shares, “He’s tiny. Weighs 5lbs 7oz. Be cries the sweetest, but is priceless.’
The country star first revealed the couple had welcomed baby number 3 in an Instagram video featuring the conversation between him and his mother as he broke the news to her. He wrote in the caption: “We will never forget how you got here and we can’t wait to see what you do here. Abram Howell Gilbert 11/10/24.’
