Country music star Cody Johnson has shared an exciting family update – he and his wife Brandi are just three months away from welcoming their third child and first baby boy.
The Texas-born singer revealed the happy news during a recent interview, confirming their growing family is right on schedule. The Johnsons first announced the pregnancy in May when they walked the red carpet at the 60th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards.
All eyes were on Brandi’s elegant baby bump as the couple posed for photographers in their formal attire. Her flowing, silky gown subtly showcased the visible signs of her pregnancy as they celebrated the special moment at country music’s biggest night.
The upcoming arrival will join big sisters Clara and Cori, completing the Johnson family of five. Fans have been eagerly following the couple’s journey since their initial ACM Awards reveal.
This marks another milestone for the “Til You Can’t” singer, who has been balancing family life with his skyrocketing country music career. The Johnsons have been married since 2010 and frequently share glimpses of their family life with fans.
Stay tuned for more updates as Cody and Brandi prepare to welcome their baby boy this fall.
The clever ACM Awards pregnancy reveal that had country music fans talking? That was all Cody Johnson’s idea.
In a recent interview with SiriusXM’s The Highway host Cody Alan, the country star shared the hilarious backstory behind his wife Brandi’s baby bump debut at the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards in May.
“My publicist Jessie – best publicist in the world – she’s like, ‘We need to figure out a way to release this,'” Johnson recalled. “And I was like, ‘I think when she shows up at the ACMs and she looks like she’s smuggling a volleyball in her dress, it’s gonna be pretty obvious.'”
The Texas native continued with his trademark humor: “What better way to do it?”
The organic reveal proved perfect as cameras captured Brandi’s elegant baby bump through her silky red carpet gown. Now with just three months until their baby boy arrives, the couple’s spontaneous announcement has become one of country music’s most memorable pregnancy reveals.
Johnson told Alan the red carpet moment felt authentic to their personalities. “We’re not big on staged announcements or photoshoots,” he explained. “This just felt right for us.”
The interview gave fans new appreciation for the couple’s down-to-earth approach to sharing their happy news. With Brandi now in her third trimester, the Johnsons are preparing to welcome their third child and first son this fall.
Cody Johnson revealed he and wife Brandi are three months away from welcoming their third child – and first baby boy. The couple first announced the pregnancy at the 60th ACM Awards in May, where Brandi’s baby bump was visible in her red carpet gown.
The Johnsons are already parents to daughters Clara (born 2015) and Cori (born 2017). This will be their first son joining the family.
Before their public reveal at the ACM Awards, Brandi Johnson orchestrated a clever surprise to share their baby news with husband Cody.
The country singer recalled the intimate moment: “Brandi texted me to help unload her truck at the barn,” Johnson shared. “When I saw the tiny box, I told her, ‘You could’ve handled this yourself.'”
The real surprise came when Brandi produced a pregnancy test from the small package. “That’s when it hit me,” Johnson admitted, describing the heartfelt family moment before their public announcement.

After processing their own excitement, Cody and Brandi Johnson faced their next big question: when to tell daughters Clara (10) and Cori (8) about the pregnancy.
The moment proved unforgettable. “Clara, our oldest – we call her the ‘cry police’ – usually calls us out if we get emotional,” Johnson shared. “But this time, she burst into happy tears, screaming, ‘Oh my God, I’m gonna be a big sister!’ Cori immediately followed suit.”
The girls have since fully embraced their new roles. “They keep saying ‘our baby,'” Johnson laughed. “I tell them, ‘This isn’t a group project – you’re still kids!’ But then I realized: I’ve got built-in babysitters now. This boy won’t know what hit him.”
