"I have an announcement to make, some of you may know that we have four children and we have just had twins about seven months ago," Stapleton said. from a 14-minute version of the song "Tennessee Whiskey".

"Now there are four for us, but we will make five," he sang.

The announcement of Stapleton almost "blew up the roof of Madison Square Garden," said a spectator.

"The crowd was incredibly happy for them – it was probably the biggest reaction of the night." Sean Roche, who captured the moment on the film, said.

"Tennessee Whiskey" is the last song Stapleton played in the main set, Roche said in front of a packed house.

"It's amazing, New York does not even have a country music station, and filling the Madison Square Garden is pretty impressive," said Roche. Not very country fan, Roche saw Stapleton open for another night in a small New York venue a few years ago, and he said the musician had dropped every jaw in the room.

When she announced the twins last year, Morgane Stapleton wrote on Instagram: "14 years old, two babies and two others on the way, happy birthday, baby, you make my whole world move."

The longtime couple plays together and she joined her husband on stage Friday night at the announcement.

Chris Stapleton posted photos and videos from the Madison Square Garden show later in the evening on Instagram, but did not mention the pregnancy information in his post.
