Having newborns in the house is something that Lady A‘s Hillary Scott and Charles Kelley thought was a thing of the past. But in the past few months Hillary and her husband, Chris Tyrrell, welcomed their fourth child, daughter Selah Jean Tyrrell, and Charles and wife Cassie Kelley welcomed their second child, son Archer Lancaster Kelley.
“I mean, what are the chances we are all in the same season of life again?” Hillary tells People. Bandmate Dave Haywood and wife Kelli Cashiola Haywood had their third child, Joseph Michael Haywood, a little over a year ago.
“I can’t even express just how much joy it brings for all of us — not only in our individual families, but also as the collective Lady A family,” she adds. “We’re just so overjoyed.”
Hillary shares, “This pregnancy was really the easiest one I have had. I was not expecting [that] being an ‘older mom,’ but Selah was really sweet to me.” And Hillary says daughters Eisele Tyrrell, Emory Tyrrell and Betsy Tyrrell are “just so smitten” with their new little sister.
“I feel like my older girls come down the stairs every morning, and if I’m feeding her or she’s waking up, it’s like Christmas morning every day,” she says. “It’s just so sweet.”
So how many of the nine, count ’em, nine Lady A children will be joining them on the road for their Christmas tour in December? “The plan is that we’re going to plan as best we can,” Hillary laughs.
As for the prospect of more babies, Charles says, “I think this is the end of that chapter. We’re going to have a snip party. Is that a thing? We can make that a thing.”

Post Malone opened his new Posty’s bar and grill Wednesday night in Nashville with help from a few friends — 30,000 of them.
According to Nashville’s The Tennessean, that’s how many people showed up to watch Posty shut down Music City’s Lower Broadway for a free concert in honor of the grand opening of his new establishment. After the ribbon cutting, attended by Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell, Posty threw a pop-up concert featuring Brooks & Dunn, Lainey Wilson and Dierks Bentley.
Posty sang “Neon Moon” and “Brand New Man” with Brooks & Dunn, “What Was I Thinkin'” with Dierks and “Nosedive” with Lainey. He also covered hits by Toby Keith, Zach Top, Brad Paisley, Hank Williams Jr., Vince Gill and Billy Currington during the show.
The best part of the night, though, was likely the news that Posty would be covering everyone’s tab. “Drinks are on me tonight for the whole entire night, food is on me tonight, whatever you want in the entire world,” he told the crowd.
“Posty’s represents a new era for me and how I connect with my fans,” he added. “This place is about having a kicka** time, leaving your lonelies at the door, and finding a friend inside.”

A new behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming Bruce Springsteen movie, Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, highlights the movie’s star, Jeremy Allen White, with both director Scott Cooper and Springsteen describing why he was right for the role.
“Finding someone to play Bruce Springsteen is as daunting a task as I’ve ever faced,” Cooper says in the clip. “Thankfully there is Jeremy Allen White.”
Springsteen adds, “The minute they said film, and somebody was gonna have to portray me, I immediately thought of Jeremy.” He noted there was some physical resemblance and something in the way White carried himself.
“And then there was the way the camera read his internal life that was really essential,” Springsteen says. “I just said this is the guy, you know, I didn’t have a #2.”
White so embodied the role of Springsteen that it even impressed the rocker’s wife, Patti Scialfa.
“By the end he had fully become Bruce Springsteen,” Cooper says. “Bruce’s wife, Patti, when she saw him on set, she said, ‘Oh my God, Bruce, [he] looks like when I first met you.'”
“Everybody has their own idea of Bruce Springsteen, he’s such a legend. So taking on the role, there was a big leap of faith,” White says. “But once I knew I had Bruce’s blessing, that gave me the confidence to go on a journey.”
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere opens Oct. 24.
