Who is Luke Combs' wife? All about Nicole Hocking as singer ends CMA Awards with unusual speech 

On Wednesday, November 10, singer-songwriter Luke Combs won the CMA Awards' Entertainer of the Year. The singer also won the CMA Male Vocalist of the Year twice in a row, in 2019 and 2020.

Luke Combs was accompanied by his wife Nicole Hocking when he received the award. The 31-year-old made headlines due to his interesting choice of words, or lack of words, in his acceptance speech on Wednesday.

The country singer said,

"I'm really kinda at a loss for words... I honestly don't know what to say. I have never written a speech for something like this, which is not serving me very well right now."

Combs further added,

"I don't deserve to win it. But I'm sure as hell glad that I did!"
