Jana Kramer and now husband Allan Russell are recapping all the ups and downs of their Scotland wedding.

The country music star, 40, was joined by Russell, 43, on the Monday, July 29 episode of her Whine Down podcast, where she revealed that she's sure their children and parents all got COVID-19 days before the couple tied the knot. Kramer and Russell share son, Roman James, 4 months. Kramer also shares son Jace Joseph, 5, and daughter Jolie Rae, 8, with ex Mike Caussin.

Kramer confessed she wanted everything to be "perfect" when she and the Scottish soccer player exchanged their "I Dos" on Saturday, July 13, at Carnell Estate. The One Tree Hill alum added that one of her fears about the celebration was worrying if people would get sick.

Things went wrong immediately after Russell’s father picked their family up from the airport, where he was noticeably coughing, Kramer said. She added, “It wasn't solely him that was coughing. There were a lot of people coughing on the airplane to Glasgow.” But she explained that Russell’s father was “hacking up a lung” in a "little" car with poor ventilation.

“In my mind I was thinking, 'It's fine, it's all good.' Then your dad says he has a fever like the next day,” she told Russell. “The next day, I heard [coughing sound] from Jolie, and I was like, ‘Oh, s---. Here we go.’ And then one hundred and four fevers later, all three kids were sick.”

She then confirmed that the children had croup and COVID. Kramer also said that her father Martin and mother Nora tested positive for COVID after they were with her three children. “So I'm pretty sure it was COVID.”

“It was difficult because they were sick,” the singer confessed, explaining, that “a piece of [her] still wanted them to make awesome memories.”

Russell chimed in to explain, “There’s nothing that would have really changed. They just did it not feeling as good as they should have felt.”

“I know, but that broke my heart,” the mother of three replied. “But I mean, we still got them out… because they wanted to too.” She confirmed the children didn’t go to Edinburgh because “that would be too much of a journey for them feeling sick.”

It was “so stressful” that the children’s fevers spiked on Wednesday, July 10, and Thursday, July 11, Kramer said, adding, “I regret at that moment not having help because it was just us.”

Kramer explained that she felt anxious and worried she was going to get sick “for the big wedding day and then the honeymoon.” She continued, “So I then became like this insomniac for the rest of the vacation because I just would wake up with anxiety and then like a pool of sweat.”

“That was the piece of the trip that I felt bad for the kids. They weren't feeling good,” she said. "But again, looking back, they don't they don't remember that. They remember the castles, all the fun stuff.”
