Chris Stapleton may be one of country music’s most celebrated stars, but at home, he’s simply a devoted dad. The “Tennessee Whiskey” singer shares five children with his wife, Morgane Stapleton, and the couple has remained intentional about keeping their family life private despite Chris’s massive success. While four of their children’s names are publicly known, the pair has chosen to keep their youngest son out of the spotlight entirely.
Keep reading to learn more about Chris and Morgane’s family and what they’ve shared about raising their five kids.
Chris and Morgane welcomed their first child, Waylon, in 2009. Although the couple keeps their family life extremely private, Morgane has shared a few rare photos of him on Instagram over the years, and he has made occasional public appearances with his parents.
In 2019, Waylon joined Chris and Morgane on the red carpet for the premiere of Toy Story 4, for which Chris recorded “The Ballad of the Lonesome Cowboy.” A few years later, in 2022, he was seen cheering on his dad at the ACM Awards, where Chris took home Male Artist of the Year.
Ada, born in 2010, is Chris and Morgane’s second child and their only daughter. Like her older brother, she’s largely kept out of the public eye but has joined her parents for a few red-carpet appearances over the years.
Morgane has also shared the occasional photo of Ada on Instagram, offering rare glimpses into their family life.
Macon is one half of Chris and Morgane’s twin boys, born in 2018. Their early arrival became public during the 2018 ACM Awards, when Reba McEntire announced their birth while explaining Chris’ absence from the ceremony.
