CURRENT SINGLE: “Country Again”
Thomas Rhett and his family will begin Mother’s day, this Sunday, on an airplane heading back to Tennessee, after he plays the first three of five shows at Billy Bob’s Texas. But Thomas absolutely plans to celebrate his wife Lauren, his own mom, his mother-in-law and all the amazing moms in his life. After spending a year at home, seeing Lauren be a mom to their three daughters, Thomas says, “This Mother’s Day is just special, just gettin’ to watch my wife be a mom to three babies, and how much work it is just being, not only a parent, but being a mother to three girls. Like, I just watch my wife sometimes. I’m like, ‘I don’t know how you do this. I don’t know how you do this with such grace.’”
Thomas has always known his wife Lauren is a very kind, patient and caring mom, but seeing it every day was just a reminder to him about how lucky he is to have such an amazing mother for their daughters. In fact, he says, “(Lauren’s) my superhero, and somebody that I just get to learn from every day.”
Being a parent himself has also been very eye-opening to Thomas about just how hard his own mom worked to be the best parent she could be. “I think when you have kids, you have this whole other sense of just gratefulness for everything that your mom did for you growing up,” says Thomas, “and realizing how many times she wanted to just rip your head off and she didn’t. And so, I love Mother’s Day and I love gettin’ to celebrate all of our moms.”

“This Mother’s Day in particular, we’re gonna be flying back from Dallas cause we have our first Billy Bob’s shows the weekend right before Mother’s Day. But this Mother’s Day is just special, just gettin’ to watch my wife be a mom to three babies, and how much work it is just being, not only a parent, but being a mother to three girls. Like, I just watch my wife sometimes. I’m like, ‘I don’t know how you do this. I don’t know how you do this with such grace.’ I’ve said this before, but she’s my superhero, and somebody that I just get to learn from every day – and also getting to watch Lauren’s mom and my mom. I think when you have kids, you have this whole other sense of just gratefulness for everything that your mom did for you growing up, and realizing how many times she wanted to just rip your head off and she didn’t. And so, I love Mother’s Day and I love gettin’ to celebrate all of our moms.”
