Sam Huntis a father of two!
The country singer and his wife,Hannah Lee Fowler, welcomed their daughter, Lucy Louise, in May 2022, and their son,Lowry Lee, arrived in October 2023.
While pregnant with Lucy, Fowler filed for divorce from Hunt, claiming he was guilty of"inappropriate marital conduct"and adultery. She withdrew her complaint a few weeks before giving birth, and the couple, who wed in 2017, have since reconciled.
Hunt has shared thatfatherhood helped put things into perspective, especially after he quickly rose to fame at 28 years old.
“[Fatherhood] hasgiven 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’sKatie & Companyin September 2022. “I think I leveled up overnight, evolved 10 or 20 years overnight.”
Here’s everything to know about Sam Hunt’s two children.

In November 2022, Hunt released a music video for “Start Nowhere,” an uptempo track co-written before he learned he would be a father, full of clips from old home movies. Family had been on his mind a lot since welcoming Lucy, and watching the nostalgic footagehelped reconnect himwith the important things in life.
“Having a child myself and seeing my parents at my age now raising me, it’s a whole existential experience,” he told PEOPLE. “I don’t think I would’ve forced myself to sit down and actually watch all that stuff if I hadn’t been trying to put together a music video. It all was a big full circle moment for me.”
Lucy would later show up in a music video herself, appearing alongside her parents in the March 2023 video forHunt’s song “Generations.”
Hunt relishes time spent watching his daughter grow and learn, with Lucy starting to “perk up” and recognize his voice, “especially if she’s fed and napped.”
Lucy has also popped up in a couple of social media videos. At two months old, she could be seen swaddled up as Hunt spent time with his extended family for theFourth of July, with her famous dadwriting, “Wake me up early, be good to my dogs and teach my children to pray 🇺🇸.”
On Valentine’s Day 2023,Hunt posted a videoof Lucy saying “dada” off camera as he strums a guitar, later telling outlets that “itmelts my heartevery time she started saying that.”
“I’ve just been in heaven the past few months,” he added.
Lowry Lee
Hunt and Fowler’s second child,son Lowry Lee, was born on Oct. 24, 2023. His name is a combination of his parent’s middle names.
The couple didn’tannounce Lowry’s arrivaluntil Thanksgiving of that same year. “Thank You Lord,” the country singer wrote on Instagram alongside a family photo, which included the newborn.
