Thomas Rhett bio, dude

Thomas Rhett Akins Jr. was born on March 30, 1990 in Valdosta, Georgia to Paige Braswell and singer Rhett Akins. Music influenced his life from an early age and he learned to play the drums while still a member of a band called The High Heeled Flip Flops. Rhett often accompanied his father on stage as a drummer.

Rhett attended college at Lipscomb University in Nashville, Tennessee, majoring in communications. This was a confusing time for him as he had no career choice in mind outside of music and only went to college because his friends did. Rhett dropped out of college when he was 20 to pursue music full-time, and he won his first gold when he was approached by a Big Machine Label Group manager while playing at a club. He was offered the opportunity to write songs for the label, an offer he accepted.

Rhett’s first album with the Big Machine Group in 2011 spent 21 weeks in the top 40 on the Billboard 200 and sold 1.7 million copies in its first few years of release. His debut album, titled It Goes So , was released in 2013 and the album’s singles Get Me Something From It and Bring Me To It became Rhett’s second number one and number one on the country airplay chart.

His second and third studio albums, titled Wirren (2015) and Das Leben Changes ( 2017), also produced hit singles that topped the charts at number one. The single from his Tangled Album, entitled Die A Happy Man , maintained number one on the country airplay chart for 8 weeks, becoming the second song in the chart’s history to accomplish the same feat.

Rhett has also made several television appearances throughout his career, including shows such as The Voice and Saturday Night Live.

Family – father, wife and children

Thomas Rhett’s father Rhett Akins Sr. Just like his son, he is a country music singer and songwriter. Fourteen singles from all of his albums have made it onto Billboard Hot Country Songs, including the number one single titled Don’t Start, which was released in 1996.

Born on October 13, 1969 in Valdosta, Georgia, he had formed a band with his two younger brothers before he was a teenager. He briefly attended the University of Georgia, where he majored in business administration before working for his father at his oil and gas distribution company.

Along with his wife Paige, whom he married in 1989, they welcomed a son, Thomas Rhett Jr., and a daughter, Kasey Lee, three years after their brother. Rhett Sr. and his wife Paige have since divorced.

Thomas Rhett met his wife Lauren when they were both first graders in elementary school, and the couple switched from one lover to the other in October 2012.

Lauren Gregory Akins was born on November 8, 1989. She is involved in various charities and philanthropy and has a degree in Nursing. She also owns a jewelry line that benefits Ugandan communities. Lauren and Thomas have known each other almost their entire lives and even went to camp together. They dated briefly when they were 15, but the relationship didn’t last very long. Despite their differences, they remained best friends.

Rhett has said in an interview that the two of them almost married other people, but Lauren’s father stepped in and made Rhett realize the mistake they were both trying to make. Rhett then settled on Lauren after their relationship ended and the two only dated six months before tying the knot at the age of 22.

In 2017, the couple announced a new addition to their family – a daughter Willa Gray, a Ugandan national, who was adopted and brought home three months later. The couple’s first biological child, a daughter by Ada James, was born just three months later in August of the same year. The family of four lives in Nashville, Tennessee.

Height Weight

Thomas Rhett stands at an average height of 5 feet 10 inches (178 cm). He weighs 73 kg and owes his perfectly trained body to his daily training. He pretends that he doesn’t like long workouts and doesn’t even have a personal trainer. Due to his busy schedule, he sometimes has to content himself with improvising his workouts, whether it’s walking instead of driving, or using the stairs instead of using an elevator.

Wealth (income and earnings)

Rhett’s debut album It Goes This Way sold 270,000 copies, the second album, Tangled , sold 500,000 copies, while his album Life Changes In Just One Week sold 94,000 copies. Income from his albums, singles, collaborations with other artists, and songwriting earned him a net worth of $6.5 million.
