Pregnant Jessie James Decker cradles her baby bump and gets a steamy kiss from husband Eric Decker at the People’s Choice Country Awards

Jessie James Decker cradled her blossoming baby bump as she hit the red carpet for the People’s Choice Country Awards on Tuesday.

The brand new awards show took place at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry, the genre’s most famous live venue, and welcomed a dazzling array of notable artists.

Among them was 35-year-old Jessie, who beamed as she turned heads in a black cocktail dress with a sparkling silver strap across her décolletage.

As the photographers stared at her, she snuggled up to her hot husband Eric Decker, an NFL alum who she has been married to since 2013.

The longtime couple couldn’t contain their affection on the red carpet, where Eric gave his wife a heartwarming kiss on the temple.

Jessie, who stands around 5ft 10in, gave herself a touch of extra stature by pairing her awards show dress with a pair of towering platform heels.

Meanwhile, Eric wrapped his toned body in a fossil gray suit that sported a dashing mullet and a dapper touch of collar.

Jessie took the stage that evening arm in arm with fellow country star Kameron Marlowe to present Dan + Shay with the award for Best Group/Duo of 2023.

She and Eric tied the knot in the summer of 2013 and quickly had three children – Vivianne, nine, Eric II, eight, and Forrest, five.

Last month Jessie excitedly announced she was expecting a fourth child and has since revealed the pregnancy was unplanned.

Jessie admitted she was “very, very, very surprised” by the news, adding that news of her next baby was “an incredible blessing.”

She reflected, “As you know, I had told Eric that it was probably time for a vasectomy because I felt like we were done.”

Jessie mused, “But I just feel like God always has other plans.” But it was extremely shocking and surprising [we are] happily excited.’

Earlier this year, Jessie noted that she and Eric would “probably” not have any more children, but he would be reluctant to have a vasectomy.

She told Us Weekly that Eric, a former NFL star, “refuses to make it permanent” for fear that “it will take away his manhood.”

Jessie, who has been a pop-country act since she was a child, said: “I keep asking him, ‘Go and make the appointment’ but he won’t do it. ‘He just won’t do it.’

Her latest comments come a year after Eric told Us Weekly that “the paperwork is filled out for a vasectomy” but that he was “a little nervous about it, to be honest” because the surgery “requires a little bit of effort.” . That’s how I feel.’
