    "If you're a parent, then you absolutely know," he adds, acknowledging the challenges and joys of parenting. 

    The couple's approach to raising their three-year-old son, Rennie, is grounded in understanding and flexibility, embodying the essence of their partnership. 

    David, who brings experience from parenting five older children from previous relationships, shares that although they might not always see eye to eye on every aspect of parenting, they find common ground in most things, allowing for a harmonious life together.

    Their professional journey has been equally harmonious. David and Katharine's paths first crossed in 2006 when Katharine was a hopeful contestant on American Idol, and David served as her mentor. 

    Although their relationship started as a friendship, it blossomed into love by 2017, leading to their eventual marriage. 

    The birth of their son in February 2021, amid the Covid pandemic, presented challenges but also opportunities. David praises Katharine's multifaceted talent and resilience during this time, highlighting her role as a "great mom" and an accomplished artist whose career, like many, faced setbacks due to the pandemic. 

    The downtime, however, wasn't wasted, as it allowed them to collaborate on a holiday album, Christmas Songs, released in 2023, showcasing their seamless professional synergy.

    David gushes about making music with Katharine, emphasizing the joy and creativity that flow when they're in the studio together. "She's an incredible singer and can do anything I ask, which is fantastic in the studio," he says, underscoring the mutual respect and admiration that form the bedrock of their relationship. 

    Their recent An Intimate Evening with David Foster and Katharine McPhee tour, which started in early February, is a testament to their strong bond, both on and off the stage. 

    David reveals Katharine's eagerness to return to her life pre-marriage while also looking forward to future endeavors, hinting at the endless possibilities that lie ahead for the talented singer and actress.

    Katharine, not one to rest on her laurels, has been teasing her fans with glimpses of her latest venture, a new collection of KMF Jewelry. 

    Her announcement on social media promises exciting developments in her career, showcasing her entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to her crafts.
