Scotty and Gabi, the winners of American Idol, are expecting their first child in November. After meeting in kindergarten while they were both little children, the two married in 2018.

“We always knew we wanted kids, but we always knew we wanted the first few years to travel and have time on the road, to see things and experience life,” Scotty told.

“We’ve gotten to live a lot of life and do some cool things, so [it] seems like now’s a good time to settle down a little and expand the family.”

“I was the only boy on both sides of my family, the last McCreery boy out there,” Scotty shared. “Gabi’s from two sisters in her family, so I just figured it would be a girl. But we got a surprise of a boy.”

Scotty’s Same Truck Tour goes until October, although the couple has stated that they will continue to travel even after the kid is born. Scotty revealed,  “I think we’ll bring another bus out and try to make a little nursery for him.”

Friends and fans were quick to express their delight at the news, with Tenille Arts commenting:  “Ahhh!!! Hope we do more shows together and you bring this little babe along!”

“Absolutelyyy!” Scotty exclaimed.
