Lainey Wilson Shares Rare Glance Of Life With Her Boyfriend Devlin Hodges

Lainey Wilson shared a sweet glance of her life with her boyfriend, former football quarterback Devlin “Duck” Hodges, on Wednesday (October 9).

Wilson, who spoke about her relationship with Hodges on a new episode of Broken Record , said there “ ain’t nowhere I’d rather be ,” as she shared a video that captured the couple in a rearview mirror. It was set to “4x4xU,” one of 14 tracks that appears on her latest studio album, Whirlwind . Wilson wrote it with Jon Decious and Aaron Raitiere .

“This song is about finding that someone that gives you the comfort and peace of home anywhere in the world as long as you’re by their side,” Wilson said in a statement when she released the song in July . “Thank you to the incredible Dano Cerny for directing this video and bringing the vision to life, and to all of my collaborators on this record for being a part of what I think could be my biggest song yet.”

Whirlwind also includes “Country’s Cool Again,” “Good Horses” with Miranda Lambert , “Call A Cowboy,” “Hang Tight Honey,” and more. The highly-anticipated record follows Bell Bottom Country , which Wilson released in October 2022. That studio album earned the Baskin, Louisiana-born artist her first Grammy Award earlier this year.

“ Whirlwind is kind of the Western sister of Bell Bottom Country ,” Wilson said in a press release when her latest album arrived . “Since that album, I have gotten to experience so many new things and meet folks from different walks of life. Because of that, I’ve become a better songwriter, and I have more understanding. I feel like I’ve truly stepped into what it is that I’m called to be doing. Ironically, I found my path within all the craziness—and that’s the whirlwind.”
