The country singer and her husband tied the knot last year.

\"My mom always called me a wild child and a homing pigeon,\" the singer reflected. \"I always have an itch to find a new adventure, but I'm also always ready to walk through my front door. I feel like a lot of people feel that way, and 'Settling Down' tells the story of being caught between those two feelings.\"

Aside from McLoughlin, Lambert's horse, Gibson, makes an appearance in the video, as does Delta Dawn, one of her several rescue dogs.

Mirroring the lyrics of \"Settling Down,\" the song's video follows Lambert as she enjoys both sides of what life has to offer. She sips red wine while writing lyrics in the grass, and gallops through fields on Gibson's back, but she also cuddles up with her husband in a hammock and watches adoringly from afar as he fishes in the couple's pond.

Settling Down 🎥 Wednesday 6pm ET. (Link in bio to set a reminder for the premiere)

A post shared by Miranda Lambert (@mirandalambert) on Oct 20, 2020 at 3:55pm PDT

Lambert, 36, has a long history of highlighting her handsome husband's shirtless physique on Instagram, so of course no McLoughlin cameo would be complete without a shot of him shirtless in the kitchen. In that segment of the video, he chops vegetables and shares a stiff drink with his superstar wife.

\"Settling Down\" is climbing the charts, and is currently a top-40 hit. It comes off of Lambert's latest album, \"Wildcard.\"
