Country Star Pauses Show To Help Wife Deliver Their Baby On Tour Bus

Country star Brantley Gilbert paused his show over the weekend to help his wife Amber deliver their baby on his tour bus.

While on stage performing on Friday in Tupelo, Mississippi, at his Off The Rails Tour, the 39-year-old country singer was called off stage and told there was an “emergency backstage.” The emergency turned out to be his wife, who was about to give birth to their third child, Whiskey Riff reported.

The crowd had no idea what happened or why he had rushed off the stage, but when he got back he filled them in, explaining to the audience that he’d gotten back to the bus just in time.

“We got a baby,” the country singer told the crowd, who cheered and celebrated the happy news about the arrival of his baby boy.

“Later, Gilbert shared in an emotional video on his Instagram Story about what it was like when his third child arrived. He captioned it, “We’ve got a new addition to the Gilbert Family… God is good,” Page Six noted.

“So, last night might have been the craziest night of my life. Watching such an amazing woman do such an amazing thing is something I’ll never forget,” Gilbert wrote.

“Thank you to our road family for rallying around us, Brittany Thornton for helping us bring this little dude into the world, Tupelo, Mississippi, for showing us mad love and support,” he added.

“And most of all … Amber Gilbert, for letting me love you and showing me EXACTLY how incredibly strong a woman can be. I love you,” Gilbert continued, labeling Amber “a freaking savage.”

On Monday, the couple spoke to Fox News about their crazy night, with Brantley joking “I can’t say this was on my bingo card. It was kind of crazy.”

The Gilberts said that they had a midwife with them and were prepared if something were to happen, but Amber said that it had still happened fast because they thought she was still a week away from delivering. 

“I went from reading a book in the bed to calling the midwife in a matter of minutes,” the singer’s wife told Fox News. “So, I was just ready to get my show … on the road.” 

The two have been married since 2015 and also share another son and daughter, Page Six noted.
