Who Is Kodi Jane?
Kodi Jane is the second daughter Kane Brown welcomed with his wife, Katelyn Brown. Before Kane welcomed his first child, he thought about what kind of father he would be to his kids. His father was not present in his life, and it was the first thing he vowed never to be, an absent father.
The country star had an exclusive interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings where he spoke about his role as a dad and what life with his two daughters, Kingsley Rose and Kodi Jane, was like.
Kane said: “I just always wanted to give them the life I never had.”
During the interview, which was held remotely, Kane was joined by his older daughter Kingsley, whom he once called his “best friend.”
Kane said about Kingsley, “She’s just fun. She makes my days better.”
The “Thank God” crooner is enjoying his time as a father. Pictures and videos that prove this can be found on his family’s Instagram page.
What’s Kane Brown’s New Baby’s Name?
The new child Kane Brown welcomed is Kodi Jane. She is the second child he shares with his wife, Katelyn. When the pair discovered they were expecting, they hoped it would be a boy. If it was, they speculated on naming him Knight.
Things did not go the way they had hoped. They later discovered it would be another girl child, but that did not dampen their excitement. Kane suggested they stick with “Knight”, even if it was a girl.
It was not until after they threw a gender reveal party for Kodi that the couple finally settled on a name for their second daughter. The reveal event was held at the couple’s back porch with about nine other people in attendance. It was during the event that Kane came up with the name Kodi.
Kane recalled the moment; he said: “And everybody was trying to decide if we were gonna go ‘y’ or, ‘ie.'”
Meanwhile, Kodi’s middle name Jane was inspired by Katelyn’s grandmother, who also answered to the same name.
Why Did Kane Brown Hide Katelyn’s Pregnancy?
News of Kodi’s birth was a pleasant surprise for fans of Kane and Katelyn because the couple hid the news of the pregnancy.
They kept it under wraps until Kodi was born in Nashville on December 30, 2021. She weighed 7 lbs and 9 oz and measured 20.5 inches long. Shortly after her birth, the excited parents blindsided their fans with a heartwarming family photo of their new family member, leaving everyone pleasantly shocked.
The couple decided not to publicly announce Katelyn’s pregnancy so they could enjoy the journey to parenthood on their terms. They took every precaution and went the extra mile to keep the news a secret from their observant fans.
When they ran into one, Kane said, “I would stand on that side of her, and I would have her pushing the stroller, just to do whatever I could to block her.”
They also had to be very aware of what they shared on social media. Katelyn even forego attending the CMA Awards red carpet to avoid getting seen with her bump and triggering any pregnancy speculation.
As far as the devoted mother is concerned, the decision was one of the best she had ever made. She is not the first to do something like this, other stars who chose to hide their pregnancy include Blake Lively, Courteney Cox, Kerry Washington and Emily Blunt.
