How Motherhood Helped Lauren Alaina Heal After Dad’s Death
Country music singer Lauren Alaina is grateful to God and her daughter for helping her move forward after a devastating death in the family.
“The last couple of years of my life have been very life-changing, not just because I became a mother. I also lost my father, which I’ve talked a lot about,” Alaina, 31, shared on the Wednesday, April 15, episode of iHeartRadio’s “If You Can Hear Me” podcast. “A lot of my prayers are praying for healing from that and also still trying to be healed enough to be a good mom and to be there for her and to do the right things.”
In July 2024, Alaina announced the death of her father, J.J. Suddeth. Five months later, the singer revealed she was expecting a baby girl with husband Cam Arnold.
“My dad died and I found out I was pregnant two months later, and she was a big surprise,” Alaina told podcast host Ben Higgins. “So my biggest prayer right now is just to heal from that and to be present with her and to be a good wife and a good mom and a good businesswoman.”

As she traveled the country as part of Rascal Flatts’ latest tour, the American Idol alum realized what’s most important to her.
“I spend a lot of time praying about it, trying to figure out what to do and what not to do, and when is it worth it, and when is it not worth it?” she said about her music opportunities. “Because I’m not going to miss everything. I’m not gonna be gone all the time. I’m just not going to do that anymore. But I am lucky.”
Lauren Alaina is hitting back at mom-shamers who had a lot to say about whether or not she is breast-feeding her daughter, Beni. The singer, 30, shared a video addressing trolls who criticized her for using bottles to feed her baby. “Just because I posted a video of myself washing my daughter’s bottles does not […]
In addition to a supportive family, Alaina has been able to travel with her mom, who helps out when things get extra busy.
No matter how packed her schedule gets, Alaina always takes time to focus on the blessings in her family.
“We’re so bonded together,” she said when describing her daughter. “It’s crazy, the connection between a baby and a mother.”
