Lainey Wilson wants to be a mom one day!
While she hasn’t talked about motherhood in interviews, the self-proclaimed dreamer feels it in her heart that one day she will have kids.
Lainey Wilson Is Freezing Her Eggs
In the trailer for her Netflix documentary Keepin’ Country Cool, Wilson briefly mentions the lengths she is going to to keep her dreams of being a mom alive.
“I’m gonna freeze my eggs in April,” she says in a brief clip. “Put them babies on ice.”
The audio runs over a snippet of Wilson in a hospital gown leading viewers to believe that the procedure has already happened.
With the special premiering on Netflix on April 22, 2026 it’s likely she had her eggs frozen in April 2025. Or perhaps she got it done last week and they threw in the footage just in time to release the trailer.
Why Is Lainey Wilson Freezing Her Eggs?
At the age of 33, the “Wildflower and Wild Horses” singer’s career is skyrocketing. With tour dates, television appearances, a budding bar and restaurant to run and several other business opportunities all pulling at her, it’s rare for her to get time at home to just relax – let alone start a family.
“I feel it in my heart that I was called to be a mama, but sometimes the Lord just has other plans,” Wilson says in the documentary trailer.

It’s definitely her moment to shine in the genre where she’s worked so hard to make a name for herself. While many would say she’s an overnight success, she’s been hustling in the business for 14 years now. This slow burn is the reason Nashville is called a 10-year town – it takes a decade to get your footing… if you’re lucky.
When Is Lainey Wilson Getting Married?
Wilson has another item on the to-do list before welcoming children and that’s marrying her fiance Devlin Hodges. The couple got engaged in February 2025 on the front steps of George Jones mansion.
“I don’t think that I would be able to navigate this life and everything with anybody else,” she says of Hodges in the trailer for her documentary.

The 20 Best Lainey Wilson Songs
Lainey Wilson’s best songs are the ones that show exactly who she is: A sharp songwriter with a stubborn streak, a tender heart and a flair for ’70s rock and roll.
Some of that might seem like a contradiction, but it’s always made perfect sense to Wilson, who debuted on the country scene with a never-ending closet full of bell-bottoms and an unapologetically thick Louisiana drawl. Even if you flip back to some of her earliest releases, this singer-songwriter has always known who she is, and been laser-focused on her country music goals.
That self-confidence and willingness to work hard has paid off for Wilson, who has climbed the country music ladder by leaps and bounds since she released her breakout hit, “Things a Man Oughta Know,” in 2021. Keep reading for a look at Wilson’s catalogue, and our roundup of the 20 best country songs she has released to date.
