Mattie Jackson Announces Baby #2

On Friday, October 10, Mattie took to Instagram to post a joyful photo carousel featuring her husband Connor, their 1-year-old son Wesley, and the baby girl’s ultrasound photo.

“The most amazing news we are beyond excited to share – our little wild angel is going to be a big brother! 👶🏻🤰🏻🥹,” she wrote in the caption.

The couple revealed that their baby girl is expected to arrive in February 2026, marking another beautiful chapter for the Jackson family. Fans flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages, celebrating this joyful moment.

A Growing Family

Mattie and Connor welcomed their first child, Wesley Alan Smith, in June 2024. Wesley’s name is a touching tribute to both country legend Alan Jackson and Connor’s grandfather.

Mattie’s journey has been one of resilience and faith. Her first husband, Ben Selecman, tragically passed away in 2018, just three weeks shy of their first wedding anniversary. In interviews, Mattie has openly shared how her faith guided her through the immense grief of becoming a widow so young.

Three years later, love found her again. She married Connor Smith in May 2023, and the couple joyfully announced their first pregnancy less than a year later.

Balancing Joy and Grief

In a candid reflection when she announced her first pregnancy, Mattie spoke about the bittersweet emotions of sharing happy news after enduring so much loss:

“To be honest, there’s part of me that’s always hesitant to share good news here, to post about these miraculous things in my life that are literal answers to years of tearful prayers. Because I know many of you are just there – in the tearful, waiting, wondering prayer place.”

Her words deeply resonated with fans, many of whom praised her for her honesty and grace.

Alan Jackson’s Joyful Role as Grandpa

Country music icon Alan Jackson, who has been a pillar of strength for Mattie, has embraced his role as a grandfather wholeheartedly. Wesley’s arrival in 2024 brought tremendous joy to the Jackson family, and baby girl #2 is sure to make their bond even stronger.

With her baby girl on the way, Mattie Jackson continues to inspire fans with her story of love, loss, faith, and new beginnings.
