The couple also said they found out in May about their growing bundle of fun.
‘We were in Texas visiting Cade from his family,’ Gabby recalled.
‘And it’s funny, because I did not think I was. At noon I remember the test and my eyes almost crossed! I was, ‘Wait, are those two lines?’
‘I came out to Cade and was just like,‘ Oh my go, I think so. ‘That’s all I said, and he knew what that meant. I started crying, and it was very sweet, ‘she concluded.
Cade is excited to become a father, and took a selfie of the couple a few weeks ago with: ‘Isn’t she just the prettiest little thing! What a privilege to share life with your wife! May our Lord give us many years together and a boatload of babies to baptize! ‘
The pair are obviously excited for the future, with the I Hope songstress saying they are out to ‘have a family rodeo in a tournament’.
“It has always been a dream to take our family on a journey and do the work we love, surrounded by family and experiencing it all,” Barrett said.

‘It’s’ halls ‘in a way that’s not normal how it goes,’ she reflected.
‘I have to go to some appointments unfortunately, without my husband, which is really sad. But I mean, if that’s what keeps the baby safe, then that’s what we’ll do. We’re just trying to find ways to really work with it, because that’s all we can do at this point. ‘
The couple – who met on American Idol’s ABC reboot in 2018 and both made it into the top five – were married in October of last year in Garrison, Texas, to 100 people.
