Luke Bryan's Family Guide
Country singer Luke Bryan, born to LeClaire and Tommy Bryan, experienced significant loss in his life, including the death of his brother Chris in 1996 and his sister Kelly in 2007.
Luke Bryan was born in July 1976 in Leesburg, Georgia, to parents LeClaire Bryan and Tommy Bryan. He was the youngest sibling, with a brother Chris Bryan and a sister Kelly Bryan.
Tragedy struck when Luke was 19, as his brother Chris died in a car accident in 1996. This led Luke to pause his plans to move to Nashville and instead attend college at Georgia Southern University.
“When Chris passed away, it was devastating because no one was more fired up about me going to Nashville than him,”
Luke shared on the Today show in August 2021. A decade later, Luke's sister Kelly suddenly passed away in 2007, and her husband Ben Cheshire died seven years later, leaving behind their children Jordan, Kris, and Til.
