Within the caption, she wrote, “And just like that the Johnson 3 turned to the Johnson 4. 
We welcomed another healthy, beautiful baby girl into the world.”

She went on to share gratitude for the outpouring of support she’s received during his chapter of life.

“Thank you all for your love and sweet messages. We couldn’t have done it without our friends and loved ones who helped bring her into the world. We are so in love, grateful and blessed beyond measure,” the message concluded.

Johnson surprised fans with her pregnancy announcement during an appearance on an episode of the episode of God’s Country podcast back in September 2025. She told podcast hosts Dan and Reid Isbell that she’s “happy because I’m having a baby, another baby. I’m pregnant! So happy. …Round two. What a gift.”

The couple’s newest baby, whose name has not been shared, joins their first-born, who arrived in 2023.

The “Growing Up Fast” singer boasted about her husband, stating he “is the best girl dad in the world. He’s like, you know, this tough rock n’ roll guy with all these tattoos and his little girl, they’re watching Cinderella yesterday.”

At the time of her first delivery, Johnson shared a post that has since been removed. She opened up about the struggles of this birth, noting she spent several days in labor and experienced some unexpected challenges along the way, but ultimately gave birth to a healthy baby.

“I started with a planned home water birth. Me And 9 of my siblings were born at home, 5 of us in a bathtub, and it was important to me to give my child a similar birth experience. After an unexpected 60 hours of labor, complications arose, and I ended up delivering at the hospital.”

She went on to address the midwives and surgeons, thanking them for helping deliver her “healthy, beautiful baby.”

“Childbirth is an incredible rite of passage for a woman. I’m proud to have made the journey and honored to be holding the ultimate reward,” she added.

Just a couple weeks before welcoming her second baby, Naomi Cooke reflected on 2025 as a whole, noting it was nearly “impossible to put this year into a few pictures or measly words.” However, she did manage to share a message of gratitude for all the good that came out of it and even expressed her excitement for what’s ahead this year.

“What I will say is God is great, life is so good and children are the greatest gift one can ever receive from our creator. I am beyond excited for this next chapter in my life and the treasures that await. I welcome you, 2026 with a full heart, anticipation, curiosity and an eagerness for the growth you will bring us all.”

As Naomi Johnson embraces this new chapter as a mom of two, fans are left excited not only for her growing family but also for what the new year will bring in her music
