Brantley Gilbert pulled off the stage Friday night in Tupelo, Mississippi, for the birth of his baby — on his tour bus. Gilbert's wife, Amber, went into labor during the Oct. 11 concert and gave birth to the couple's third child on the bus.
“So last night might have been the craziest night of my life,” the country singer revealed in an Instagram post the following day (Saturday, October 12). “Seeing such an amazing woman do something like that is something I'll never forget.”
Gilbert's update included a video that captured the wild birth story, starting with the singer rushing off the stage just after the concert began. He is currently on the road for his Off the Rails tour.
The proud parents shared a glimpse of the newborn in their first photos with the baby, which were added to the video and phone call Gilbert had with his mom: “How are you?” she asked, and he replied, “Not as good as you're going to be. You have a new grandfather.”
“She's one hell of a beast,” he said of Amber.
Gilbert, who just released his new album Tattoo last month, she finally came back in and finished the show, but not before enjoying cheers from the crowd when she announced, “We're having a baby!”
The “Over When We're Sober” singer added a note of gratitude in his Instagram post: “Thank you to our street family who rallied around us, Brittany Thornton for helping us bring this little dude into the world, Tupelo of Mississippi for showing us crazy love and support, 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.”
Brantley and Amber they announced that they were expecting on Mother's Day. The new addition to the family joins two big brothers, Barrett and Braylen.
