The musician, who continued performing after the surprise, described it as the "craziest night" of his life.
Country musician Brantley Gilbert says he had the “craziest night” of his life after his pregnant wife went into labor midway through his concert.
The “Bottoms Up” singer was pulled offstage during his concert in Tupelo, Mississippi, on Friday minutes after his set kicked off.
In a video shared to Instagram, Gilbert revealed to his nearly 2 million followers that the emergency he had to leave for was his wife, Amber Gilbert, giving birth to their third child on his tour bus.
“So last night might have been the craziest night of my life. Watching such an amazing woman do such an amazing thing is something I’ll never forget,” he wrote alongside backstage clips of the special moment.
He continued, “Thank you to our road family for rallying around us, Brittany Thornton for helping us bring this little dude into the world, Tupelo, Mississippi for showing us mad love and support, and most of all … Amber Gilbert, for letting me love you and showing me EXACTLY how incredibly strong a woman can be. I love you.”
