HARDY and his wife are expecting Baby No. 1!
Caleigh Hardy debuted her growing baby bump as the parents-to-be announced the pregnancy on Tuesday (October 15). They shared several photos — including sonogram images — on Instagram, and Caleigh wrote in the caption: “You have been our favorite little secret to keep 🍼 🙏🏻 Baby Hardy coming February 2025 🤍” The announcement quickly garnered congratulatory comments from Tigirlily Gold, Hannah Ellis, Parker McCollum’s wife (Hallie Ray Light McCollum), Dan + Shay’s Dan Smyers’ wife (Abby Smyers), RaeLynn, Lindsay Ell, Chris Lane, Brian Kelley’s wife (Brittney Kelley) and others in the country music community as of publication time.
HARDY, whose full name is Michael Wilson Hardy, popped the question to Caleigh in 2021. He previously shared that he brought her to The Lyric, a historic venue in Oxford, Mississippi, under the guise of a private gig. Caleigh arrived at the venue, where she first met her now-husband about four years earlier, and HARDY proposed. He said shortly afterward that “as far as I know, she was pretty fooled.”
HARDY married his wife in October 2022 at a stunning venue in Nashville, Tennessee. Caleigh told PEOPLE at the time that “once we met each other, there really was no one else. We never entertained anyone else. It was just so easy.” HARDY added that he knew he loved Caleigh after only three times meeting in person. The award-winning artist shared the first photo he and Caleigh took together when they celebrated their first wedding anniversary last year.
