In January 2022, the couple revealed that they were expecting their first child and posted a few pictures from their maternity shoot on social media. It included one where they were holding a sonogram while Nicole cradled her baby bump. Although they stated that the baby was due in spring 2022, they did not mention a specific date.

Luke Combs and Nicole Hocking Combs had their first child in June 2022. They revealed the news on their respective social media pages, with Nicole writing:

"It's going to be hard to top this past Father's Day. Welcome to the world, Tex Lawrence Combs. You are the best chilliest angel boy and I'm so happy I was chosen to be your mom. These are the days."

After the birth of their son, Luke revealed that the entire family is back home from the hospital and everyone is healthy and doing well. Combs had previously confirmed in an interview with the Tennesseean during the CMA Fest that he is expecting to become a father by Father's Day.

While Combs was previously silent about Nicole's first pregnancy, he has since spoken up about his experience of becoming a father. He said that prioritizing his family is more important and that following Nicole's pregnancy, he learned a lot of new things.

The couple is expecting their second baby to be born in September 2023.
