The Combs family has officially grown to a party of five. This past Thursday, Feb. 19, 2026, country superstar Luke Combs and his wife, Nicole, introduced their newborn son, Chet Wiley Combs, to the world.
The couple shared the milestone through a series of intimate family photos, including a quiet moment of Chet meeting his big brothers, Tex Lawrence (3) and Beau Lee (2). In the announcement, Nicole revealed that while Feb. 19 was the baby’s official due date, the family had actually been “soaking up newborn snuggles” at home for a few weeks already.
The early arrival explains Combs’ surprise exit from the Madden Bowl lineup during Super Bowl weekend earlier this month, a move he apologized for at the time, saying that “family always comes first.” The couple also kept the baby’s sex a surprise throughout the pregnancy, a change from the reveal parties they hosted for their first two sons.
