Lainey Wilson and her new husband, Devlin “Duck” Hodges, gave fans a lighthearted glimpse into married life on Tuesday, July 28, when the country star posted a video of the two attempting to learn a dance routine together — set to her latest song, “Phone, Keys, Wallet.”
The clip arrives just weeks after the couple married on May 10, 2026, in a ceremony held at Ruskin Cave in Dickson, Tennessee. Wilson, known for her signature bell-bottoms and cowboy hat, traded both for a custom Oscar de la Renta gown and a bridal veil on the big day. The two have been together since 2021, though they kept the relationship out of the public eye for some time, making their first joint red-carpet appearance at the ACM Awards in 2023 before announcing their engagement in February 2025.
Duck Takes the Lead — With Mixed Results
In the Instagram video, Hodges confidently positions himself as the one who has the choreography figured out, essentially reversing roles to teach the moves to Wilson herself. The lesson doesn’t go entirely smoothly — the two fumble through the steps together — before Hodges declares they need “actual music” to get it right. Wilson’s deadpan response: she is the music.
A Relationship Built on Intentional Time Together
Hodges, a former NFL player who has since built a career in real estate following his 2022 retirement, has become a recurring presence in Wilson’s social media posts. The singer has spoken previously about the deliberate effort required to keep a relationship strong while managing a demanding touring schedule. “You have to definitely carve out the time,” Wilson has said. “It has to be something that you’re very aware of, and you’re like, ‘Okay, I’ve got a day off here in 10 days. I’ve got to dedicate that day to spend time with my person.'”
Wilson has described “Phone, Keys, Wallet” as a song rooted in the chaos of life on the road and the grounding effect of a partner who embraces you through all of it — making the couple’s playful dance attempt a fitting way to bring the track to life.
