Many celebrities like Luke Combs these days like to keep their child's faces hidden on social media and only show the back of them in photos. Sam Hunt has decided not to be one of those celebrities. He shared the first public photos of his one-year-old daughter Lucy Louise as he and his wife, Hannah, enjoyed some vacation boating time.
Sam posted the photo to Instagram, writing, "She is worth far more than rubies."

Hunt and Hannah are expecting their second child. Per Entertainment Tonight, he announced the news on stage last month (April 21). During Sam's Las Vegas concert, the singer told the crowd that he and Hannah are expanding their family by one.

Hunt recently announced his "Summer On The Outskirts Tour" with special guests Brett Young and Lily-Rose. The tour kicks off July 6 in Hartford, Connecticut, and runs across the country with stops including Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Detroit, Mountain View, New York City, Orange Beach, Raleigh, and St. Louis.
Sam told us about getting back on the road. "I have a whole new appreciation for being out on the road not being able to tour for two years (because of COVID). Me and my guys that I travel with we've all been together for a long time now. So, we really hit our stride last year on really knowing how to tour and keeping quality of life high."
Hunt added, "We were getting up and going to breakfast and having all of us getting to talk for a couple of hours in the morning. And then trying to exercise and do something active during the day, not staying up too late at night. All these little things that you are too excited to do when you first get started. These little things, if you could just keep them steady out there, you can really have a much better time. So, this past summer, we had an absolute blast. The best year of touring I've ever had."
Sam Hunt came into country music and made his mark in 2014 with his debut album Montevallo, which was nominated for Best Country Album at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards in 2015. His towering, good looks made Sam an instant country star. As we celebrate his 37th birthday today (12/8), we take a look at and countdown his eight best songs.
8. "House Party" (2015)
UMGAn upbeat fun song and a big hit for Sam. It’s one of his signature songs.
7. "Break Up in a Small Town" (2015)
UMGHunt discussed the process of making the song, saying it was born when he was "singing that chorus melody late one night while riding around trying to come up with song ideas.”
6. "Take Your Time" (2014)
UMGIn the music video for this song, his second radio single, Sam fights a man who was abusing his girlfriend, freeing up the woman to leave with her baby. This song was actually promoted to pop radio six months after its country release.
5. "Breaking Up Was Easy in the 90s" (2020)
UMGHunt said of writing the song's content, "In the 90s, there was no Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or more, so break ups in the 90's were not easier. The trick was not filling it up with a bunch of technology references and trying to find the story within it. It's just the world's so much smaller now."
4. "Body Like a Back Road" (2017)
UMGThis song spent 20 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart – this made Sam the solo country artist with the second longest run at the top of the 59-year-old “Hot Country Songs” chart. Hank Snow's, "I'm Moving On" spent 21 weeks at the top.
3. "Kinfolks" (2019)
UMGAnother chart-topper for Hunt. Rolling Stone reviewed the song saying in part, "Acoustic guitar arpeggios that lead into big, bright choruses of banjo, vocal snippets, and wah-wah guitar." Well said.
2. "Leave the Night On" (2014)
UMGThe first song that introduced us to this former football player from Georgia. It was his first single, and his first number one song.
1."Hard to Forget" (2020)
UMGJust as music critics started saying that Sam just wasn’t country enough, he kicked off a song with an original recording of Webb Pearce’s 1953 hit, “There Stands The Glass.”
