Toby Keith, 61, is one of country music’s biggest stars, but he also is a doting father to three children. The singer shares his brood with his wife, Tricia Lucus, whom he married in 1984, and they seem to be a very close family. After Toby revealed he was diagnosed with stomach cancer in 2021, in a social media message, he admitted it was very important to him to spend time with his wife and kids as he recovered from months of treatment.

“​​Last fall I was diagnosed with stomach cancer,” he shared on Instagram in 2022. “I’ve spent the last six months receiving chemo, radiation and surgery. So far, so good. I need time to breathe, recover and relax. I am looking forward to spending this time with my family. But I will see the fans sooner than later. I can’t wait.”

Shelley Covel Rowland:

Shelley Covel Rowland is Keith and Tricia’s oldest daughter. She was born to Tricia in 1980 from a previous relationship and Keith adopted her and raised her as his own once he became romantically involved with Tricia years later. Although Shelley has kept her life as private as possible over the years, she did make a rare public appearance with her parents at a a SwingDish launch event in Las Vegas, NV in 2015. She went on to get married and have two children, making Toby a grandfather, according to Country Fancast.
