Maren Morris' infant son received 'scary' death threats after the musician called out Morgan Wallen

Maren Morris claimed her infant son received "scary" death threats after she called out country music star Morgan Wallen for using the N-word in 2021.

"I think it's because they're not only, like, defending the person that said this, but they are taking it personally, as if I'm criticizing them, which I think says, you know, a lot more about their interpretation of criticism and what that content was than me as a person calling out someone using the N-word. Or even transphobia that I've criticized in the past that sort of, like, exploded in another wave," Morris said.

Morris explained she was encouraging the industry and Wallen "to do better … as a peer."
