Kane Brown and his wife Katelyn Jae had one of the best-kept secrets in country music. The two have always had an open and honest relationship with their fans, keeping them in the loop about various events. However, when it came to their second baby, Brown and Jae preferred to keep the precious moment to themselves. The couple hid her entire pregnancy from eagle-eyed fans.

Brown revealed on The Bobby Bones Show that they decided to keep things under wraps when his wife was about four months pregnant. The country singer said his wife told him she wanted her pregnancy to remain a secret because they’d had past negative experiences regarding big announcements. 

The “One Mississippi” singer clarified he wasn’t “bashing anybody.” But when the couple shared their first child’s photo with Kane’s older brother, he posted it on social media, beating Kane and his wife to the punch of announcing their baby’s birth.

Kane also recalled fans announcing that he and Jae had gotten engaged before they had made the official announcement. So during her second pregnancy, the couple removed any pregnancy clues from their photos and videos before posting them.

He also said they had to find creative ways to hide Jae’s pregnancy, including her wearing baggy clothes. “It was like, ‘We want this, to say that we’re having a baby on our own terms,” the singer concluded.

Fans slam Kane Brown’s wife for her post-birth look

Brown and his wife succeeded in hiding her second pregnancy. The couple took fans by surprise when Jae posted a photo of the happy parents cradling their newborn daughter, Kodi Jane Brown, in a hospital bed. Jae looked stunning in a full face of makeup and styled hair cascading in loose waves.

Fans weren’t having it. Some were quick to slam the star for her unrelatable post-birth look.

“Wait, is that how I’ll look after giving birth?!? Hahahaha, hilarious,” one user remarked.

“How the fk are you gonna look like that after just having a baby and expect to be relatable to your fans,” another follower angrily asked.

“You’re ridiculous. ‘Oh, let’s take a picture of the new baby. Right after I get my hair and makeup professionally done,'” another user wrote.

However, most commenters didn’t seem to mind Jae’s camera-ready look and even complimented her post-birth beauty. One fan even said their young daughter thought the star was Rapunzel.
