Reba Once Put Thomas Rhett In A “Time Out”

Growing up as the son of Rhett Akins, who had a successful country music artist career in the ’90s, Thomas Rhett spent a lot of time around other country stars as a kid.

One of his most memorable Halloweens, for example, happened at Reba McEntire’s home where the icon actually put him in “time out.”

“Reba’s son, Shelby, I think we’re about the same age, and we were at their Halloween party one year, and I remember us racing back and forth to this barn, and I think I kept beating him in this race, and I think he was a little bit older than me and bigger than me, and he put me up against the wall, you know, around my neck, and I remember Reba coming over and snatching Shelby off of me and putting us both in time out. I mean, I had to have been five, maybe five, to be put in time out. I hope that I wasn’t like, nine or something and I was in time out.”
