Sam Hunt’s divorce has been called off.
Hunt’s wife, Hannah Lee Fowler, reportedly requested the courts to dismiss the divorce case last month (April), and a judge signed off, according to new legal documents obtained by TMZ.
Fowler filed for divorce from Hunt in February of 2022, she quickly withdrew the petition and later refiled it in a different Tennessee county. However, it seems now the divorce has been called off.
The outlet also reported that Hunt and Fowler have been spotted together walking their dog in Franklin, Tennessee. In addition to seeing the pair out and about together again, TMZ also shared that Hunt has been wearing a wedding ring again after not wearing in during several performances in March amid their divorce.
Hunt and Fowler are expecting their first child, a baby girl, at the end of May 2022.
The “23” singer opened up about becoming a father in an interview with Lon Helton on Country Countdown USA in March.
“I haven’t talked about this, but I have a little girl on the way. I have a baby coming in about eight weeks,” Hunt shared. “I blocked out two months at the end of May and early June. Really this year revolves around that big news in my life.”
At the time, he revealed that they had a few names picked out but shared that they planned to wait until she arrives to name her.
“I want her to be in the world before we name her,” Hunt added. ”I want to be able to look at her and decide what name suits her best.”
Sam Hunt and Hannah Lee Fowler first started dating in 2008 while the singer/songwriter was playing football for the University of Alabama. They eventually broke up but dated on and off for several years.
Fowler was the inspiration behind Hunt’s breakout album, Montevallo, which he named after her hometown.
Hunt tried to win Fowler back for several months and he was eventually successful.
“I think last summer I went out [to Hawaii] about seven times in about three months, trying to talk to her about coming back,” Sam revealed in a 2017 interview with Entertainment Tonight. “And the seventh trip I convinced her.”
Hunt and Fowler remained tight-lipped about their relationship, but after they began popping up on each other’s Instagram feeds, fans assumed they were back on.
They confirmed their engagement in January 2017 and eventually wed on April 15, 2017, in Hunt’s hometown of Cedartown, Georgia.
