Country superstar Jason Aldean is not only known for his chart-topping hits, but also for being a proud dad. This week, he marked a major family milestone as his daughter Kendyl officially turned 18.
A Heartfelt Birthday Message
On August 20, 2025, Jason Aldean shared a touching tribute to Kendyl on his Instagram story. The post included a carousel of photos from over the years — from childhood snapshots to holiday memories with family. One of the slides featured a bold “18” to mark the special occasion.
Alongside the images, Aldean wrote:
“Happy Bday Kendyl Bug! I can’t believe you are 18 now. You’re a special one kiddo and we love you so much.”
The sweet message quickly resonated with fans, many of whom have followed Aldean’s family journey for years.
Jason Aldean as a Father
Kendyl is Jason’s daughter with his ex-wife Jessica Ussery. The former couple, who were high school sweethearts, married in 2001 and welcomed two daughters together — Keeley, now 22, and Kendyl, now 18. They divorced in 2013, and two years later Jason married Brittany Kerr, who is now known as Brittany Aldean.
With Brittany, Jason is also dad to two younger children — Memphis (7) and Navy (6) — making him a proud father of four.
Reflecting on Growing Kids
Earlier this summer, Aldean opened up in an interview with Taste of Country Nights about how surreal it feels to have grown children. He admitted it’s “a little bit weird” that his oldest daughter, Keeley, is now old enough to legally drink.
“Keeley is the oldest, she just turned 22. She’s awesome, man, she killed it in college, about to graduate and get started with her life. It’s cool, they’re doing great.”
The singer also reflected on how quickly time has passed, remembering when Keeley was just a little girl pretending to be a performer on stage.
A Family Man at Heart
Although Jason Aldean is one of the biggest names in country music, he often shares glimpses of his personal life on social media. He has made it clear that no matter how successful his career gets, his greatest joy comes from being a dad.
With Kendyl now entering adulthood and Keeley preparing to graduate college, Aldean has expressed his gratitude for each stage of fatherhood.
Conclusion
Jason Aldean’s heartfelt birthday tribute to his daughter Kendyl is another reminder that even country superstars are just parents at heart, cherishing the milestones of their children. From watching his oldest daughters step into adulthood to raising his two youngest, Aldean embraces every chapter of fatherhood with pride and love.
