Toby Keith’s Son Welcomes Baby Girl: A New Chapter of Family Love

On August 15, Haley Covel announced the birth of her and Stelen Covel’s first child—Millie Brooks Covel—bringing renewed joy to the family of the late country legend Toby Keith.

A Heartfelt Arrival

Haley and Stelen, who tied the knot in November 2021, revealed they were expecting on February 13, 2025, teasing “Baby Covel coming this summer” with a sweet ultrasound photo.
Then, on August 15, they introduced their daughter with a simple, emotional post:

“Millie is here 💕 We love you so much little girl.”
A photo showed Millie swaddled and sleeping peacefully under a banner that proudly displayed her name.

Family Celebrations Ahead of Time

Months prior, on May 29, Stelen’s sisters—Shelley and Krystal—hosted a beautiful baby shower featuring pink-themed treats, including cookies shaped like cowboy hats and onesies emblazoned with “Baby Covel”. The decor whispered the secret before the public announcement: it was a baby girl.

A Legacy of Love and Togetherness

Stelen is the youngest and only son of Toby Keith (whose legal surname is Covel) and Tricia Covel. His arrival as a father comes amid a period of family unity—especially poignant after their shared loss when Toby passed away in February 2024 following his battle with stomach cancer.
Stelen’s two older sisters, Shelley and Krystal (who performs as Krystal Keith), have supported their mother and each other while keeping their father’s memory alive.

Bottom line: As Toby Keith’s legacy echoes through country music history, the birth of Millie Brooks adds a new, tender chapter—a moment of healing and hope for the entire Covel family.
