Thomas Rhett is soaking up more family time than ever this year.
With his Center Point Road Tour rescheduled until 2021, the superstar has found himself at home with his wife, Lauren, and three daughters, Willa Gray, Ada James and Lennon Love. While he misses the road, he admits that 2020 does have a silver lining.
“Honestly, it’s just been such a blessing in disguise, this whole year. I would say the first 30, 40 days into quarantine I was kinda losing my mind, going, ‘I need to play a show. I need to write a song. I need to do something.’ And then one day my wife looked at me and she said, ‘Honey, you’re not gonna play a show this year. You just need to let it be and relax and be with our family.’” Rhett recalls.
He took her advice. Since then, the Akins family has enjoyed time at home, in the mountains of Montana, and most recently, a beach trip to Florida, where the country superstar realized his girls are “growing up so fast.”
Now that he’s let go of the idea of going back on the road in 2020, the “Be A Light” singer says he’s enjoying every minute at home.
“It’s been really amazing to get to spend this much quality time with my kids, and this is the most nights in a row I’ve ever gotten to put ‘em to bed and wake up with ‘em. And it’s been absolutely amazing just to get to watch them grow up,” he shares. “So, as crazy and weird as this year has been, that is definitely a silver lining, just gettin’ to watch my kids grow and gettin’ to really be intentional with my wife.”
