Delaney has always been a source of pride for Martina and her husband, John McBride. While growing up, Delaney experienced a childhood surrounded by music and creativity, often joining her mother on tour. Despite her proximity to the world of country music, Delaney chose to pursue her own passions outside of the entertainment industry. She is known for her compassionate nature and interest in social causes, often sharing her thoughts on topics like mental health and personal growth on social media. Delaney has managed to stay relatively private compared to her famous mother, but she clearly shares her mom’s caring spirit.
In May of 2018, Delaney graduated from massage therapy school.
“Happy Birthday to my first born. You completely and forever changed my world for the better. I’m proud of you and the life you are building. You are kind, empathic, compassionate, feisty, funny, talented, loyal, dark, and light. You have the most musical laugh and the best smile. I love you sweet girl. All the parts of you. Always,” the star shared in honor of her eldest daughter’s birthday.
Emma Justine McBride (born March 29, 1998)
Emma has always had an artistic flair, and it’s no surprise considering her mother’s musical talents. Emma is known for her love of photography, and her Instagram is filled with stunning shots that capture her unique perspective on the world. Whether it’s breathtaking landscapes or candid moments with family and friends, Emma has a knack for capturing beauty through her lens. In addition to photography, Emma has also shown an interest in acting and performing arts.

In September 2017, Emma left the family home at 19-years-old to give acting a try in Los Angeles, California. Emma turned 26 years old on March 29, 2023 and has relocated to New York City.
Happy Birthday to this girl! My heart. While I wish you were little again sometimes and I could scoop you up in my arms or read you a book, or watch you walk around in dress up clothes and your “tappy shoes”, I’m proud of the life you are building and the woman you are becoming. I hope this 23rd year is your best yet. I have a good feeling about it. I love you Emma,” Martina posted about her middle daughter.

Ava is kept mostly out of the spotlight, which is totally understandable since she is a teenager. Out of Marina and John’s children, she looks the most like her mother.
“If you believe in ‘old souls’ then you would recognize that in her. Wise beyond her years she has always kept us intrigued trying to figure out who she is. I’ve recently realized she’s beyond ‘figuring out’. She just is. She is Ava and I’ve never met anyone so sure of who she is and what she stands for. I love the fact that she is so wise and stands for what she believes to be true, but it makes me happy that I can still can see an innocence in there as well. I’m so proud of her,” Martina shared about her youngest on her 15th birthday.

“Blessed” Lyrics
I get kissed by the sun
Each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the
Bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my
Front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place
I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank God for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones
That love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
Across a crowded room
I know you know what I’m thinking
By the way I look at you
And when we’re lying in the quiet
And no words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift
I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank God for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones
That love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
When I’m singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know
I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank God for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones
That love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
