Drew Baldridge and his wife, Katherine Kraus, are expecting Baby No. 2!
The “She’s Somebody’s Daughter” singer, 33, confirmed his wife’s pregnancy with PEOPLE ahead of the 2025 BMI Country Awards on Tuesday (November 18). Baldridge told PEOPLE, “Katie and I are so excited to welcome our second son this April. We’ve always dreamed of having a couple of kids, and we feel so blessed to be adding another little one to our family. …2025 has been an incredible year with so many professional firsts, and I’m beyond grateful. But nothing comes close to the joy of being a father”
Baldridge and Kraus got married in May 2021 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. The couple welcomed their first child, son Lyric Lee Baldridge, in December 2022. Baldridge said at that time that they got “the best gift for Christmas,” sharing that Lyric was born weighing 7 pounds, 8 ounces. “Momma and baby are both healthy!”
