Tucker Beathard revealed an until-now secret part of his personal life Monday night (July 13), introducing fans to his 2-year-old daughter, Sage.
Writing on Instagram, the “Rock On” hit maker admitted he doesn’t normally like to talk about his private world, but wanted to wish his little girl a happy birthday. Beathard explained that he learned of Sage’s imminent arrival back in 2017 — a time when he “couldn’t have been more stressed and overwhelmed” by his career — and the news caused him to hit a breaking point.
“To say I was scared is an understatement,” Beathard wrote, noting that Sage lives in Seattle but not sharing her mother’s name. “It seemed like everything was kinda falling apart around me.”
In his darkest hour, Beathard said he ultimately turned to his Christian faith, asking God to pull him through. And now, he can’t imagine his life any different.
“He grew me in ways I could’ve never imagined,” Beathard explained. “He took all the messes I felt I was drowning in and did exactly what Romans 8:28 says he does. And more than anything, he took what I thought was ‘the last thing I needed in my life’ and instead, on 7/13/18, gave me the greatest blessing I could possibly ask for by bringing this little girl into my life.”
The 25-year-old proud papa included some pictures of Sage and ended with a thought familiar to most parents. “Now I just pray she doesn’t raise as much hell I as I did growing up,” he wrote. Beathard released the thought-provoking rocker, “You Would Think,” as a single earlier this year.
