Gabby Barrett, who is pregnant with her third child, was absolutely glowing at the People’s Choice Country Awards on Thursday (Sept. 28).
Donning an ALAÏA hooded one-shoulder dress, Aldo shoes and gloves by Lillian Shalom, Barrett had her growing bump on full display all while looking completely stylish as she strutted her stuff down the red carpet, making her way into Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tenn.
Barrett made an appearance at the first-ever People’s Choice Country Awards to present during the broadcast.
This marks the red carpet debut of Gabby Barrett’s new baby bump, following her August 30 pregnancy announcement.
The “I Hope” singer shared the news with fans on social media in a joint Instagram post with Foehner.
The post captured Barrett and Foehner seated together on a staircase during rehearsal on stage, with a speaker displaying the message “baby #3” accompanied by two hearts. The third slide of the post featured Barrett lying in bed with a baby doppler on her belly listening to the baby’s heartbeat.
Gabby Barrett and Cade Foehner are also parents to Augustine Boone (11 months) and Baylah May (2 years).
The couple met in 2018 when they both appeared on Season 16 of American Idol. Their relationship continued to flourish and Foehner proposed in March of 2019.
Following a short engagement, the pair tied the knot on October 5, 2019, during a small wedding in Garrison, Texas.
Foehner inspired several tracks on Barrett’s debut album, including her chart-topping single, “The Good Ones. Foehner appeared in Barrett’s music video for “Pick Me Up” as well as the just-released video for her latest single, “Glory Days.” The clip also features Augustine Boone and Baylah May.
“Glory Days” is the lead single from Barrett’s forthcoming, yet-to-be-announced album.
