Luke Combs's wife Nicole revealed some details about the family's life in her latest installment of taking fan questions on Insta Stories.

Asked about her "personal" goals, Nicole wrote, "Honestly, becoming a mom is the best thing that I've ever done. I really want to be present for my children, and I'm so thankful I'm able to be home with them and see them grow and achieve every milestone. My biggest goal right now is to be there for them and Luke as much as possible. Other than that, my short-term goals are to get back in shape, read more books, and get more sleep."

She added, "That may not be 'enough' for some people, and that's alright, but it's enough for me right now. If I start a brand (or non-profit), it's going to be something I'm extremely passionate about. I won't start something just because there's pressure to do so."

She concluded, "Who knows what the future holds?"

Luke's wife also revealed when she and the family will start decorating for Christmas. She wrote, "Right after Thanksgiving! Our lights will go up next week (early November) though. I LOVE a live tree, but for the sake of my mental well-being, we won't be getting them until the boys are around three or four years old. Haha."

Meanwhile: Luke Combs generally wears his standard concert attire: jeans, a black Columbia button-down shirt, and a ball cap (usually black) when he performs. He doesn't change his outfits much from show to show. However, when he recently played a show in Scotland, he changed it quite a bit. He wore a traditional kilt for the Scotland show to honor the country and his fans there.

Luke recently wrapped his European tour and posted images from the trek overseas, which started in Norway on September 30. He captioned the Instagram post, which included a photo of him performing in a red and black kilt, "World Tour: Switzerland, Belgium, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, England."

Luke Combs is getting ready to release his latest album, Growing Old, later this month (3/24), and then he kicks off his world tour, which will play stadiums all over the world. That is not bad for a guy who studied criminal justice in college just over ten years ago.

As his country star continues to rise, Luke became a new dad in July of last year (2022) and has been busy helping out his wife Nicole take care of his son Tex. He also performed as a multiple nominee at the Grammy Awards show in February (2/5).

Combs celebrates his 33rd birthday today (3/2), and to honor him; we rank his 16 biggest and best songs.
