Maren Morris & Ryan Hurd Talk Welcoming a Baby During Pandemic

Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd are opening up about parenthood!

The 30-year-old country singer and her husband revealed what it was like welcoming their son Hayes on March 23, right at the beginning of the pandemic.

“It was really weird and eerie, it was so quiet,” Maren shared on The Bobby Bones Show.

“The silver lining [of the coronavirus] is getting to spend every single moment of this year with our son, who is never going to be this small again,” Ryan added. “I try to really soak that time up, because it’s not time I would have had otherwise.”

Maren went on to detail her “grueling” labor.

I had a really grueling delivery at the end and it’s like 30 hours of labor, C-section at the very end,” Maren explained. “It’s just about getting him out safely. The recovery was super hard, not being able to work out, having my tour rescheduled, it was a lot mentally and physically.”

Despite the rough labor, Maren is loving being Hayes‘ mom.

“He’s great,” Maren shared. “We really couldn’t have asked for a more magical human to be brought into our lives during this crazy time and he’s been a good distraction from not being able to tour.”
