When Ben died in 2017, Luke and Caroline decided to adopt their nephew and two nieces. “We never thought twice about it,” Caroline told Robin Roberts. “You know, it was never something that he and I had to sit down and talk about. ‘Should we take this on?’ We just did that.” “I woke up one day and I’m raising a teen. And it’s a challenge because my main thing with Til is just properly giving the right amount of advice and realizing you’re talking to someone who is becoming an adult,” Luke once told People. “I have to be that parent role where if he does something, he needs to get in trouble, but I want to be a friend to him too.”

Who is Luke Bryan’s sister?

Luke’s older sister Kelly Bryan Cheshire died unexpectedly in May 2007, leaving three children behind with her husband Ben. “She was home with her 3-year-old, and it was like someone turned the lights out,” he told People in 2013. “They never determined what happened.

He was always so scared of making a girl feel uncomfortable, he wouldn’t cross a line,” Caroline told People. Luke and Caroline married on Dec. 8, 2006, in Turks and Caicos, and spent their honeymoon in the Colorado mountains.

Does Luke Bryan learn anything about music from his kids?

He does. He told Parade.com, “My nephew Til, who’s 20 now, he comes home and there’s mainstream country, there’s Texas country, and there’s some underground  country stuff that my nephew [listens to] because he’s at college. To think that every college kid in the South is listening to mainstream country, that’s just not true. They’re finding underground music. So, my nephew will come back with some underground country, or some kids that are big in Athens that’ve got an album out but they haven’t broke nationally yet, and he puts it on my radar. “But then my children, they’re learning a lot of their music from TikTok and stuff like that, and so if there’s a hot TikTok song, they’ll let Dad know. And my 14-year-old, all he wanted for Christmas was, we have an ATV, like a Polaris RANGER, he wanted a roof that had speakers in it. And every evening after school he just drives around and listens to music on the farm. Yeah, every now and then we’ll get a neighborly complaint.”
