Elle King is now a mom of two, with the “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer announcing Friday (Feb. 28) that she and partner Dan Tooker have welcomed their second son together.
Sharing a black-and-white photo of herself lying down with her tiny newborn sleeping on her bare chest as a smiling Tooker leans into frame, King wrote on Instagram, “Our family just got a little bit brighter.”
“Welcome to the world Royal Tooker,” she added.
The musician’s news comes about three and a half years after she and the tattoo artist first became parents, welcoming son Lucky in September 2021. King and Tooker first met in 2019 and got engaged in 2020; following a brief split after their first child was born, the couple rekindled their romance in 2024.
“We’re back together,” the “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” vocalist told People in September. “We had to grow … It doesn’t get better than this. This is worth trying. This is worth wiping a slate clean. This is worth all the effort in the world. My family, this is what deserves all the energy and effort.”
King first announced that she was expecting Baby No. 2 that same month. In a gender-reveal video with Tooker and their toddler, the couple popped party cannons that rained blue confetti on their family.
“Doubling down,” she captioned the clip.
The singer-songwriter released two singles in 2024, starting with “Baby Daddy’s Weekend” in April followed by “High Road” in September. Her last album, Come Get Your Wife, dropped in January 2023 and debuted at No. 53 on the Billboard 200.
King also made headlines last year for opening up about her complicated childhood and relationship with dad Rob Schneider. After the musician slammed her famous father for being “toxic,” sending her to “fat camp” and being generally absent from her life on Bunnie XO’s Dumb Blonde podcast in August, the comedian issued an apology to his daughter on Tucker Carlson’s YouTube show, saying, “I hope you can forgive me for my shortcomings … I feel terrible.”
