Baby Announcement

Fans flocked to the comments section to share congratulatory messages for the couple.
Fans Showcased Their Excitement
“SO EXCITED FOR YA’LL!!!!!,” wrote one Instagram user, while another shared, “CONGRATULATIONS!!! Sweetest update 😍.”
Jake and Brittney welcomed their first child, Madilyn Bri, into the world on July 24, 2022.
“She’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever known. I never knew that my capacity to love someone could become so deep, and this profound,” Brittney shared in a post introducing their newborn daughter. “Everyone meet our little angel. She’s more than we ever dreamt of. We love you so much our little angel and can’t believe we get to love you forever!”
Madilyn Bri Hoot joins sister Macy, Jake’s daughter from a previous relationship.
Previously Released A Duet
Jake Hoot and Brittney Hoot previously turned heads when they released a duet, “Wherever Time Goes.” It came as a surprise to fans as Brittney worked as a labor and delivery nurse at the time, however, the couple met through music and continue to share the same passion.
The lyrics of the tender song gently prompt listeners to take things at a more relaxed pace and savor each moment before it slips through their fingers.
“Wherever it takes me, whatever the road / I’ll be just fine if it’s your hand I hold / When that hourglass empties all that I know is I want you to be wherever time goes,” the married couple sing on the timeless ballad.
“I think, as we get older, we get in such a hurry and such a fast-paced mentality that we tend to let so many precious moments pass us by without even realizing that we let it happen,” Jake previously told Country Now of the meaning behind the track. “I think taking a step back and going, ‘You know what? Time is a gift and being such a special thing as it is, and having somebody special in your life – and the beauty about this song, is it can also be compared to being with your kids too and being happy about the moment – and going, ‘I have so much time left on this earth, and in this life, wherever that time goes, I want it to be with the people I love.’”
“It’s just been so fun getting to do a project with [Jake] and just be a part of this song,” Brittney added. “It’s such a beautiful song, and the message of it is something that I think is so much our story.”
