Luke Bryan says his mother called him to ask if he fathered Maren Morris' baby


Luke Bryan addressed the rumor that he fathered Maren Morris’ one-year-old baby boy Hayes during an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, set to air on Thursday. 

The 44-year-old country star, who shares two sons Tatum, ten, and Thomas, 13, with his wife Caroline Boyer, was mistakenly reported to be the dad of Morris’ firstborn last month, instead of her husband of two years, Ryan Hurd, by The Sun.

After Bryan’s mother, LeClaire, came across the article, she called him as he was still drinking his first coffee of the day to discuss if he ‘fathered Maren Morris’ child.’

‘Oh my gosh. I don’t need this today,’ the American Idol judge recalls telling her, after admitting he was surprised to learn his mom ‘subscribes to’ any online gossip’ sites.  

Once he ended their chat, Bryan cheekily forward the article to Hurd, who he has worked with on singles like Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset and, most recently, Waves. 

‘I shared it from my mother straight to Ryan, and I said, ‘Buddy I think we need to talk,’ he mused, while dispelling any speculation he was Morris’ baby daddy.

Bryan even joked he would ‘call Maury Povich’ for a paternity test to prove the truth. 

When the article first came out in April, both The Bones hitmaker, 31, and Hurd, 34, found the mistake humorous. 

‘I guess the cat’s outta the [bag] @lukebryan,’ she wrote on her Instagram Story.

Meanwhile, Morris and Hurd are doting parents to their son, whose face they don’t share on social media anymore for privacy and to avoid mom shaming.

‘I would just have to say to anyone that is a mother who is shaming another mother, it obviously comes from just a deep insecurity in your own motherhood that you have to criticize someone else, especially [someone] who is brand new at this,’ she said last year on the Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
