Early this year, country singer Luke Combs and his wife Nicole announced the exciting news that they are getting ready to welcome their first child.

“This may be the best year yet,” the mother-to-be wrote on Instagram, alongside a sweet collection of snaps of her and her country superstar husband. “Baby BOY combs coming spring 2022!!”

In the photo, Luke and Nicole close amid an ocean backdrop. The proud soon-to-be father stands behind the expectant momma, who looks so gorgeous, cradling her baby bump. The two held up the ultrasound of their upcoming “lil dude Combs.”

Since their announcement, Nicole has shared several photos of her growing baby belly – and fans can’t help but gush in the comment section.

Nicole Hocking Looks Stunning With Her Growing Baby Bump

Nicole Hocking keeps fans full with the photos she shares. In one photo, Nicole donned a Barbie-themed outfit for a Bachelorette party – and she proves she’s one hot momma. 

She also shared a photo of herself in a stunning swimwear when she gathered seashells in Florida. 

Recently, she shared with fans that she’s working with a mom-run and Nashville-based clothing store, Tiff.Marie Maternity, where she curated some of the pieces. She showed off the items she made in a series of photos.

During Mother’s Day, Nicole hosted a baby shower and, of course, showed off her baby bump one more time. The mother-to-be looked so gorgeous and happy beside Luke Combs as they posed in front of a neon sign that said: “Let’s Party, Baby!”

Meanwhile, the five-time CMA Awards winner previously admitted that he’s “a little nervous” about becoming a daddy. In February, he revealed to Bobby Bones during the Grand Ole Opry that there are still plenty of things he has to learn, and he’s uncovering things every day.

Still, Luke Combs took the role of a supportive husband to Nicole, learning a baby-centric vocabulary and helping stock up armloads of baby essentials he never knew existed. He’s also said he wants to be involved as a father, not just some country artists his children would watch on TV. After all, family is very important to Luke.

Well, cheers to a new adventure! We can’t wait to welcome Luke and Nicole’s first child.
