More on the couple and their pregnancy details

Ahead of their wedding, the couple spoke to PEOPLE about what life together would look like. At the time, Dawson said he was excited to take their love to the “ultimate level.”

Devin Dawson on his vocal chord condition
Previously, Devin Dawson appeared on SiriusXM’s The Highway and discussed with host Storme Warren that the singer has been diagnosed with dysphonia, a muscle and voice disorder that makes his voice sound different than usual. Dawson also shared that he first realized there was a change in his voice while he was on tour with the Zac Brown Band in late 2021.
He also came out to his fans on Instagram, mentioning that he had been struggling with it for the last 10 months. While his voice has been negatively impacted, Dawson has been focusing on other aspects of music and spending time writing songs every day. He also mentioned plans to make another album, following his 2018 album Dark Horse (which contained the top 5 Billboard Country Airplay hit "All on Me") and his 2021 EP The Pink Slip.
