"Biggest surprise of our lives!" Kelley writes on social media. "Baby Kelley coming early fall 2025. Big brother is the MOST excited."

This pregnancy is even more of a surprise considering Cassie is now 42 years old.
"It's all been an interesting thing to wrap my head around," Kelley tells American Songwriter. "But we're just trying to enjoy the moment of it all. Obviously, with a little bit of an older pregnancy, you worry, and we're still keeping an eye on it all. But everything seems really good so far. Everything seems healthy."
The good news comes as Kelley is also enjoying sobriety. Kelley went to rehab in 2022, to overcome his addiction to alcohol. It was Cassie who encouraged him to quit drinking, after a fateful trip to Greece in 2022.
"The next morning, I said, 'You need help. You have to deal with this,'" Cassie recalls on CBS This Morning. "And he said he knew, and he made a plan with his manager, and he flew directly from Greece to treatment. But at that point, I thought I was fully flying back to the US, and I was going to meet with a divorce attorney. That was it."
Lady A's Family Continues To Grow
Lady A's family is continuing to grow. Only a few weeks before Kelley announced their new addition, fellow band member Hillary Scott revealed she and her husband, Chris Tyrrell, were expecting their fourth child.
"Chris, Eisele, Emory, Betsy, and I are overjoyed to report that this summer our family will be made complete with the most precious little SISTER joining the family," Scott writes. "I'm dusting off that maternity bin from the storage room ONE more time."
"4 daughters," she continues. "We are thankful that God has entrusted us with a household of little ladies, and I couldn't be happier that my husband continues his streak as the absolute BEST girl dad, in my opinion! We have been looking forward to this day and covet your prayers for a continued safe and healthy journey getting her here."
