It is hard to imagine a star with a Grammy nomination choosing baby bottles over bright lights. Teddy Swims did exactly that after his huge world tour ended this year. He spent most of 2025 singing for thousands of people every night. But on June 23, 2025, everything changed when his first son was born.
The singer felt a type of love he had never known before. He and his partner, Raiche Wright, shared tiny black-and-white photos of their new baby. Raiche said her heart was exploding with joy. Teddy started calling the little boy Buc-ee as a cute nickname. Even though he is famous, he decided to stay home to be a full-time dad.

Fans are so happy to see this soft side of the singer. One person said that seeing Teddy as a dad is the best news ever. Another viewer wrote that they can see the peace in his eyes now. Everyone loves that he is putting his family first. It makes the star seem like a regular person who just loves his kid.
Being a dad changed how Teddy looks at the world and his music. He used to sing about being sad or lost, but now he has a new reason to smile. This change led him to write a special song called “Small Hands.” It is a beautiful song that talks about how life feels much better now.
