Ashlyne Wallen Sang Harmony in One of Morgan Wallen's Songs
One of Morgan Wallen’s siblings is Ashlyne Wallen, reportedly 15 months younger than her brother. However, according to Morgan, her actual birthday is on February 1.
Ashlyne received her Bachelor's in Marketing and Business Management from Middle Tennessee State University, and according to her Facebook profile, she also studied at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. However, her area of study was not specified.
Besides Facebook, Ashlyne also has an Instagram account with over 80,000 followers. She utilizes the platform to share bits and pieces of her travels and daily activities.
Although living separate lives, Ashlyne and Morgan have a close relationship. Ashlyne, who Morgan once referred to as "one of [his] best friends in the world," came to her brother's defense when he was caught up in a scandal in 2021.
At that time, Morgan faced backlash for using the n-word in a video. While the entertainer apologized for his mistake, Ashlyne reiterated his apology alongside a lengthy statement on Instagram. She said:
"I know my brother. He is my best friend, and although what he said was completely unacceptable, I know in my heart that it did not come from a place of hate or malicious intent."
Like Morgan, Ashlyne also has musical abilities and grew up singing church hymns and harmonizing with her brother. Interestingly, Ashlyne's voice was featured in her brother's song, "Outlook," which was part of his latest album.

Morgan also grew up close to his younger sister, Mikaela. He initially wanted to include her in recording "Outlook," but because Mikaela had just given birth, it was not possible.
Born in September 1996, Mikaela is the mother of two beautiful children. At 18 years old, she welcomed her first child, Haven Rose Smith, on July 7, 2015. Eight years later, Mikaela welcomed her second daughter, Kehlani Lauren Parker. Mikaela shares Kehlani with her partner, Carson Parker.
Like her sister, Mikaela has active Facebook and Instagram accounts with over 20,000 followers, where she shares snippets of her life. Often, she posts photos of her children and their adventures as a family. Mikaela also has a TikTok account with over 2,000 followers.
Morgan Wallen's Parents Adopted a Girl
On July 12, 2021, Morgan's parents adopted a young girl, Lacey Wallen. Their mom, Lesli Wallen, shared about adoption day on Instagram:
"I never imagined what God had in store for us as we started down this road in foster care. I always wanted more children; God decided to wait until now!"
Soon after the adoption, Morgan founded More Than My Hometown Foundation, which helps children find a family who will love and support them.
As posted on its website, the foundation "believes every young person deserves the best chance at a great life by strengthening and fostering these four pillars: family, community, guidance, and love."
Morgan's parents, Tom Wallen and Lesli Wallen, have significantly influenced his career and upbringing. They raised him in a loving household, ensuring their children were instilled with the correct values.
The country star is now a parent to Indigo Wilder, his son from a previous relationship. As of writing, Morgan is allegedly in a relationship with Megan Moroney.
