Bobby Bones and his wife, Caitlin Estell, are expecting their first child.
The parents-to-be subtly shared their big news on Instagram with a pair of photos — one showing the award-winning radio and TV personality resting his hands on his partner’s baby bump, and another capturing the couple holding hands as they walk away from the camera, Caitlin’s growing belly once again.
The caption simply reads, “👶🏼❤️.”

Since posting the announcement online, the lovebirds have received an outpouring of love and support in the comment section from friends, members of the country music industry and beyond.
Bones’ former Dancing with the Stars partner Sharna Burgess commented “AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! B, huge congratulations to both of you. ❤️❤️”
Charles Esten wrote, “Incredibly happy for you guys!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎉✨”
George Birge penned a celebratory, “Man this is awesome 🔥”
They also received a warm “Congrats ❤️” from Brandy Clark, while Lady A’s Hillary Scot wrote, “SUCH sweet news to see!!!! So happy for yall! ❤️”
The couple’s story began in 2019 when they were introduced through a mutual friend. What started as a casual meeting quickly grew into a romance just a few weeks later. After spending time apart in a long-distance relationship, they were finally able to settle in the same city, reuniting in Nashville in 2020.
That year proved to be a milestone one as the pair not only got engaged but also exchanged vows during a private ceremony at their Middle Tennessee home in July 2021, according to a report from People at the time.
On July 17, 2023, they celebrated their second wedding anniversary. Bones marked the day with a heartfelt post, sharing a collection of photos from their journey together thus far. he wrote, “2 years in the books. And it’s the greatest book I’ve ever been a part of writing.”

Caitlin is often by Bobby’s side, supporting him through his various endeavors including his comedy shows and other star-studded events. She frequently showcases her love and support for him on social media.
When he’s not interviewing artists on the nationally syndicated The Bobby Bones Show or his podcast, The Bobbycast, Bones is sharing snippets of his life online with his wife.
The pair most recently turned heads on the 2025 ACM Awards, where Bobby Bones donned a sleek black suit while his other half dazzled in a long, sheer black gown with stunning embellishments throughout.
Now, the couple is preparing to step into their biggest role yet as they get ready to welcome their first child together.
