As a father of three, Shay Mooney has over 10,000 hours of fathering practice. And in an interview with Advertising sign on the Winner's Walk carpet at the 2024 ACM Awards on Thursday (May 16), band member Dan + Shay offered a little sage advice to one of the duo's past collaborators: Justin Bieber, who recently announced that he and Hailey Bieber are expecting their first child.
“You have to learn as you go, obviously you pick things up as you go,” said Mooney, who shares sons Asher, Ames and Abram with wife Hannah Billingsley. “Justin, if you see this, you'll do just fine. You are a good person”.
“It's going to be awesome, I'm excited for them,” the singer added of his partner and bandmate Dan Smyers' “10,000 Hours” duet. “It's a new journey and they have a lot of great people around them. I'm proud of him.”
The awards show – where Dan + Shay won duo of the year – comes just over a week after the Biebers revealed they are expanding their family. Hailey debuted her baby bump with the 'Peaches' singer in photos taken at a vow renewal ceremony, posted by the Rhode founder on Instagram on May 9.
Since then, the model has shared more photos of her bump and revealed her biggest pregnancy craving so far: pickles with egg salad and hot sauce. “No, you're not allowed to judge!!” she wrote on Instagram Stories earlier this week, sharing a photo of the concoction.
Mooney and Smyers are currently wrapping up their first season The voice. They make up the first coaching duo on the show, where they serve on the panel alongside Reba McEntire, John Legend and Chance the Rapper.
“I really enjoyed working with the artists, really digging in,” Smyers said Advertising sign of their time in the row. “There is so much thought that goes into the songs. Trying to give these artists their best, 'cause this is an amazing time for them.
