Why Maren Morris Refuses to Attend Late Night Plans After Becoming a Mom: ‘Bra is Off, Pen Has Been Hit’

Count her out! Maren Morris opened up about being a mom to 2-year-old son Hayes — and why she will no longer be saying “yes” to any late-night dinner plans. 

“Maybe it’s 32, maybe it’s having a kid, but I’m not coming to your 8pm dinner invite,” Morris, 32, wrote via Twitter on Thursday, November 17. “HONEY. That is when I’m putting on face creams, I’m dimming the lights, the bra is off, the pen has been hit, I’m putting on The Office.” 

The “Bones” singer, who shares Hayes with husband Ryan Hurd, added that she’ll only show up for “Blue Haired Specials” — otherwise known as dinners that happen before 5 p.m.

Having him in the middle of [the coronavirus pandemic] was also not in the baby prep books, but here we are.”

Four months later, the “Middle” songstress came under fire after she posted a picture of herself and her son in a floatie without life vests. 

“Honestly, I get so many criticisms of my motherhood on anything I post of Hayes, so I may just discontinue posting photos of him,” she tweeted about receiving an influx of hate in July 2020. “Sucks but it’s kind of where I’m at. We talked about curbing posting photos anyway now that he’s a little bit older,
