The “Country Again” singer has been very vocal about wanting a big family in the past. 

“If we stopped having kids now, I know I’d wake up at 45 and go, ‘We should have had five more,’” he shared in the summer of 2019. “Because I really do want to be able to sit at a Thanksgiving or Christmas table with the most gigantic family on the planet.”

“They say that going from one to two is the hardest thing you’ll do as a parent…” he added at the time. “But going from two to three and maybe four and five, like I’m just gonna embrace it and know that, like, we can accomplish anything.”

Thomas and Lauren are already parents to daughters:  Willa Gray, 5, Ada James, 3½, and Lennon Love, 14 months.

In a recent interview with People, Rhett explained that they would likely have at least five children, perhaps more. 

 “My wife has wanted five kids for forever, so I’m sure we’re gonna have at least that many,” he said, adding that Willa Gray has been asking for a sister for quite some time now. When asked about the possibility of a brother for Willa, he told the publication, “Yeah, well, you know, I would love a son, but at the same time, I’m so used to embracing this ‘girl dad’ life that I don’t really know what I would do with a boy, to be honest with you!”
