When he’s not busy in the recording studio or dancing it out, Walker Hayes loves to share moments with his kids on social media.
Hayes has been married to his wife, Laney, since 2004, and the couple has built a large family together over the years. Their oldest daughter, Lela, was born in 2005, followed by three sons: Chapel, Baylor, and Beckett.
In 2013, they welcomed their fifth child and second daughter, Loxley. Two years later, the couple welcomed their sixth child and third daughter, Everly. This evened up the numbers in the Hayes family, with three girls and three boys.

Despite the unimaginable loss, the country star and his family have continued to lean on one another, with moments like his recent post serving as a reminder of the love and bond they still share.
