Evan Felker and wife Staci welcome their first child together and reconcile on Instagram… three years after Miranda Lambert cheating scandal

They welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world.

Evan and Staci Felker announced the birth of their daughter Evangelina in a heartfelt Instagram post shared on Tuesday, March 9.

Staci and Evan looked completely content with their firstborn daughter wrapped up in their arms in the stunning snaps shared on social media.    

‘Y’all welcome my husband #EvanFelker back to my grid after a few years off,’ the new mom wrote. ‘He’s here to introduce our firstborn. Evangelina Hartford Felker.’

Despite being married for two years, Evan and Miranda were romantically linked while he was touring with her on her Livin’ Like Hippies tour in 2018 and she was dating Anderson East. 

'Y'all welcome my husband #EvanFelker back to my grid after a few years off,' the new mom wrote. 'He's here to introduce our firstborn. Evangelina Hartford Felker.'

He filed for divorce in May 2018, and reportedly ‘ghosted’ Staci, which she later took to Instagram and said: ‘A man that I perfected homemade chicken soup for when he was sick, cared for him through soooo many sweating miserable days coming off benders decided to come calling when I was happy last week. 

‘Too happy. Riding and then at the beach with my girls. How dare I smile after all he did to try to break me?’

‘That’s not a country boy and certainly no cowboy. Not a husband I’ll ever take back because I was scared and he was gone. Again.’

In his August 2020 book Red Dirt, Evan confirmed the couple reconciled amid his journey with sobriety. 

‘First and foremost, I found sobriety and recovery,’ Evan explained of their reunion. ‘And I stepped away from the road and got a clearer view of the world. I got back to just being me. 

‘I could not have ever done that while we were touring like we were. I had initially blamed everything on being on the road. But it’s only when you take the road out of the equation that you see you’ve still got problems. I was able to start fixing those.’ 

Miranda recently celebrated two years of wedded bliss with Brendan Mcloughlin, who was previously engaged to Jackie Bruno before Kaihla Rettinger revealed she was seven months pregnant with their son who was born days after he met Lambert in November 2018.
