Thomas Rhett and wife Lauren Akins are officially parents.
The couple announced Friday that they have welcomed daughter Willa Gray Akins home after a long adoption process in Africa.
"Meet Willa Gray Akins," Thomas wrote on Twitter. "I can't believe our daughter is finally home. Thank you to everyone who prayed every single day for this sweet girl."
Rhett and Akins began the adoption process in 2016 after an unsuccessful attempt at having a baby on their own. A few months later, they discovered Akins was pregnant.
“When we began the adoption process, we said, ‘Let’s wait, let’s give this adopted child his or her time with us and then we’ll continue our family,’ ” she told People earlier this year. “So I was convinced it was food poisoning.”
Little Akins #2, also be a girl, is due in August.
