“I don’t know how nervous I’m going to be yet, I guess until we get to that moment,” the singer admitted. “Hopefully there’s no mess-ups. I just try to stay out of my own way and stay out of my head about it.”
No matter what happens on Grammy night, Teddy has another exciting milestone on the horizon: the arrival of his first baby with pregnant girlfriend Raiche Wright, due in June. And the father-to-be has already gotten parenting tips from his “Somethin’ ‘Bout a Woman” collaborator Thomas Rhett, who shares four daughters with wife Lauren Akins.
“[Thomas] said, ‘Look, there are times where these kids, they know when you’re not fully, fully, 100% present and focused on them,’” Teddy recalled. “He said, ‘You just got to make sure, no matter what, put your phone down. Just be fully present with them, because you won’t get those moments again.’”
