Thomas Rhett and Lauren Akins have five adorable kids and love spending time with the little ones — and documenting their cutest moments on social media.
The couple adopted their daughter Willa from Uganda in May 2017. “I had always wanted to adopt,” Akins told Us Weekly exclusively two years later. “My mom is actually adopted. I am a product of an adopted family. So, it has always been something that has been very natural for me. When I saw her … I was very drawn to her. I just tell everyone she was always my baby. It just took us a little bit longer to find each other.”
She continued, “I called Thomas one of the first nights I met her in Uganda and told him about her. Without hesitation, he said, ‘Bring her home. She is ours. We are going to make this happen.’”
Willa came home in May 2017, and Akins gave birth to Ada three months later. The couple welcomed daughter Lennon Love in February 2020 and daughter Lillie in November 2021. The couple welcomed baby boy Brave Elijah into the mix in February 2026.
