Josh Gracin Expecting Child With Wife Katie
Josh Gracin is already pretty seasoned in the "dad arena." He's got four children to date, but now another blessing is on the way, and this is the first baby he'll welcome with his wife Katie.
The American Idol alum revealed to People on Wednesday (Jul. 10) that the new bundle—a son that has already been named Luka—will be arriving early 2020. “We’ve been praying for a baby since we decided on a name last year for a boy and a girl," he explains. "Luka represents my father’s Croatian heritage and Italian blood."
Baby Luka will join three older sisters and an older brother from Gracin's previous relationship. Gracin recently released the single "Lucky Stars," about second chances, which is a theme he can relate to—having found the love of his life and marrying her in May of 2017.
The Idol Season 2 finalist found success in country music with a string of hits including "I Want to Live," "Nothin' to Lose" and "Stay With Me (Brass Bed)." He'll be busy releasing new music and hitting a string of tour dates throughout 2019.
