The “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer offered up the surprise via an Instagram video that showed King and Tooker doing a gender reveal. They stood beside their three-year-old son, Lucky Levi Tooker, as a signed above them read, “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star How I Wonder What You Are?” Quickly, blue balloons and confetti fell from above, signaling that King and Tooker are expecting a baby boy.

King captioned the video with the words “Doubling down,” accompanied by a blue heart emoji. King later posted another Instagram photo, of herself with Lucky. She captioned the photo, “I am so happy. Thank you for all the love and support as [Dan Tooker], Lucky and I grow our family. #tableoffour”

Tooker and King met in 2019 and became engaged in 2020. Their son Lucky was born in September 2021, but two years later, King and Tooker seemingly broke off their relationship, with King even wearing a jacket emblazoned with the word “Single” during her performance at Stagecoach Music Festival in 2023. In a recent interview with People, King confirmed that she and Tooker have reconciled.

“We’re back together,” King, 35, told People, adding, “We had to grow. I don’t know. I’ll try anything twice.” King also noted that their son Lucky spurred them to get back together.

“He’s definitely brought me and his dad back together just because, what are we doing? We have everything that both of us have ever wanted right here,” she said. “Let’s put our weapons down. Come on. This is it. This is life. 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 also recently released the new single, “High Road,” saying in a press statement, “‘High Road’ is a nod to the classic country that I’ve loved. When I come out on the stage of life, I want to be my truest and utmost self, and I want to release music that makes me happy, that I love to sing and music that acknowledges the things that have inspired me, like Willie Nelson and Highwaymen. I wrote this song last year and it’s funny how the lyrics have played out over this year.”
