Early next year George Strait will become a first-time grandfather. According to ABC News, Strait’s son Bubba and wife Tamara will have their first child in February of 2012.

Bubba Strait is a frequent co-writer with his father and songwriter Dean Dillon. They contributing seven songs to George Strait’s upcoming ‘Here for a Good Time’ album. 

Bubba’s full name is George Strait Jr., which makes me wonder if a baby boy would be named George Strait III. It sure is a fitting title for a boy related to “The King” of country music. Thirty-year-old Bubba is Strait’s only son. Bubba Strait and Tamara were married in December.

George Strait has an album of original songs due in stores on September 6, and will also have an album of his greatest hits available on September 13. ‘George Strait – Icon‘ featureing 11 songs, including nine No. 1 hits and two fan favorites. ‘Give it Away,’ ‘I Cross My Heart,’ and ‘Amarillo by Morning’ are a few of the songs on the greatest hits collection.
