Multi-Grammy Award winner Tim McGraw admitted that when moving his eldest daughter Gracie across country, his emotions got the best of him, leading to a breakdown.
“I drove my daughter to L.A. when she moved out there, and drove cross-country with her. I took all the seats out of my Cadillac Escalade and loaded it up with all of her stuff,” he shared on Audacy’s “Rob + Holly Show.”
“When I dropped her off, I mean, I just lost it,” he revealed. “And then I had to drive home all by myself… I was crying the whole time.”
He and wife Faith Hill share three daughters together: Gracie, 25, Maggie, 24, and Audrey, 21.

About his daughters, McGraw admitted it was an adjustment for him and Hill to have them out of the house.
“It was tough at first, you know. I mean, it’s always harder on Mom than it is on Dad, I think. But… there were a lot of tears,” he said.

Despite the change, McGraw revealed it led to a new song on his upcoming 17th studio album.
“In fact there’s a song on my new album coming up that guitar player Bobby Minner wrote, ’cause I called him when I was driving back from dropping Gracie off, and was just sort of having a heart-to-heart about dropping my daughter off,” he said of the tune.
“It’s based on my trip… It’s a good one,” he added.

Although they have maintained a relatively private family life in their nearly 27-year marriage, both McGraw and Hill have shared the joys of being a parent to their social media accounts.
In January, Hill shared a silly video of McGraw dancing in the back seat to the hit song “good 4 you” by Olivia Rodrigo.
“This is a rare, very rare look into a side of my husband that only his girls and I get to see,” she wrote on Instagram.
McGraw’s latest single “Standing Room Only,” was just released.
