Granger Smith & Wife Amber Expecting Baby Boy Nearly Two Years After Son River's Death

Some happy news for Granger Smith and wife Amber – they’re having another baby!

The 41-year-old country singer and his wife announced on Thursday (March 11) that they are expecting a baby boy, due in August.

“We’re pregnant. I don’t have many words for this video. Life isn’t perfect. Sometimes it’s beat up and broken but it’s NEVER hopeless. God promises that,” Granger wrote on his Instagram. “Our story isn’t finished yet, and neither is yours! Through our suffering and joy, God’s glory radiates through it all! A new Smith boy is dude in August 🙏🏼”

The baby news comes after the couple’s 3-year-old son River tragically died in a drowning accident in June 2019.

In her pregnancy announcement on Instagram, Amber shared a message directed to River.

“If I’ve learned anything over the last 2 years, it’s that I do not have as much control as I think I do,” Amber wrote in her post.

“Sweet Riv, because of the beautiful life you lived, we are forever changed and we will continue honoring your big, little legacy until we come home to you ❤️” Amber added. “To God we give all the glory and we can’t wait to meet our new little boy August 2021. 💙”

Shortly after River‘s passing, Amber revealed that they donated their son’s organs, which helped save two lives.

Granger and Amber are also parents to son Lincoln, 7, and daughter London, 9.

Congrats Granger and Amber!
