Kane Brown and his wife, Katelyn, welcomed their third child, a baby boy named Krewe Allen Brown, on Tuesday (6/18).

Kane posted some images of the happy couple ad the baby to his Instagram. He captioned photos of the couple holding the baby and a photo of the baby's feet, "Krewe Allen Brown 6.18,"

Many of Brown's almost four million Instagram followers reacted to the post. One fan wrote, "Congratulations! I love his name, and Happy birthday, Katelyn and Crewe." Another fan commented, "Congratulations, may the good Lord continue blessing you and your family." One more fan said, "Congrats! My mom had her first son a day before her birthday, too! My brother's birthday is June 18, and my mom's June 19!!!!"

When we talked with Kane recently, he gave us an update on how his toddler daughters are preparing for their new arrival. He said, "I don't have to prepare the girls. They're so mom-oriented already. They absolutely love the fact that we're having a third. They've already got his nursery all set up."

As for himself prepping, he continued, "Preparing to be a boy dad, I'm just ready to coach a baseball team or something like that. I'm excited. Kingsley just got her first set of golf clubs yesterday, so we went up and hit on the golf simulator."

The country star concluded, "Right now, they're in gymnastics and dance and swim. So, me playing basketball, football, and running track, it's hard for me to get into that sort of stuff, but it's cool to watch them."

Surrounded recently by the song's co-writers, Kane talked about how he feels about his place in country music right now. Brown told us when asked about where he stands in the genre, "I wish you could be inside my head because I felt like the outcast, and then for this album, I feel like we were almost done, and we were writing so many super 1990s, I was like, 'It's not 1990s enough.' And now, the music is out, and I'm like, 'Oh snap, are we too country now?' I'm just all over the place."

He added, "I think it's a good spot. I think it gives a lot more people a chance to come in, and it's just fun. Everything that is on top of the charts right now is just fun songs."

The country star concluded, "All the songs that are being released right now make me super happy."
