Rascal Flatts' Jay DeMarcus Becomes a Dad

Filed under: Country News


Rascal Flatts' bassist Jay DeMarcus joined the ranks of his fellow bandmates, Gary LeVox and Joe Don Rooney, this week with an early Christmas present. He became a first-time father on Friday, December 17, when daughter Madeline Leigh made her way into the world. The baby is actually a few weeks early -- she was not due to arrive until January 8.

Jay took to his Twitter page on Saturday to confirm the rumors. "It's true! Madeline Leigh DeMarcus was born yesterday at 4:49pm. She weighed 6 pounds, 9 ounces. Ali and I are so excited!!!"

Madeline's mom is CMT correspondent, Allison DeMarcus. The couple had tried to conceive for a couple of years before she got pregnant, and when they announced the news, Jay told People, it made the happy news "a little sweeter. I feel like we have a victory because of it ... When we stopped trying to plan it out and stopped worrying about it, it happened very naturally."
