Brantley Gilbert’s visit halt in Mississippi went off the rails Friday day: The country-rock singer’s wife gave birth to their second child while he was performing live, prompting him to delay the present for his son’s immediate arrival.
Shortly after starting his Off the Rails Tour set in Tupelo, Miss., the” Bottom Up” song was pulled ahead” for an emergency backstage”, according to the baby news movie Gilbert posted Saturday on , Instagram. His wife, Amber, went into labor on their journey van, which caused what he claimed might have been the craziest day of his career.
At the Cadence Bank Arena, Gilbert, 39, shared images of him leaving the stage and running through the step doors behind. Therefore it cut to him telling his mother that her “new grandbaby” had arrived. Gilbert also shared a picture of his family and the baby’s bus ride home as well as his triumphant music returning.
As the audience yelled” We got a baby,” he said into the level microphone as he bowed.
But perhaps last night was the most crazy nights of my life. I’ll never forget seeing such an incredible person accomplish such incredible things,” Gilbert wrote on Instagram.
” Thank you to our road family for rallying around us, ]midwife ] Brittany Thornton for helping us bring this little dude into the world, Tupelo, Mississippi, for showing us mad 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”, he added.
Amber Gilbert also announced their son’s arrival in a joint post,  , writing:” We will never forget the way you got here and we ca n’t wait to see what you do here. Abram Howell Gilbert 10.11.24″
The Gilberts, who have been married since 2015, are also kids to child Barrett, 6, and child Braylen, 5. Three days postpartum, the couple made a joint appearance on Fox News ‘ ,” Fox &, Friends”  , to talk about their wild night.
” I ca n’t say this was on my bingo card”, the singer said Monday on the morning show.
He claimed they were prepared if it did happen and that they had a nurse with them when the girl arrived, but that they only had a week or so until then.
” We did n’t”, he said.
In a matter of hours, Amber Gilbert continued,” I went from reading a book in bed to calling the nurse.” ” So I was just ready to get , my , present on the road, not his”.
Brantley Gilbert claimed that they “did n’t really think in a million years it would happen during the show” and that they “did n’t think in a million years it would happen during the show” and that they would make fun of him by bringing the baby back to life and playing with the audience like Simba in Disney’s” The Lion King.”
When it came time for the singer to determine if he would be with his family or transfer the step, he said, his family “had this appearance of understanding”.
Amber Gilbert stated,” I knew it would be swift and he would be up and I had time to get cleaned off and just be with my child for a moment.” So it was okay”.
