PinkandCarey Hartbecame parents in 2011 — and they haven’t looked back since.
The “So What” singer and the former motocross competitor havebeen marriedfor almost two decades. They welcomed their first child, daughter Willow Sage, on June 2, 2011.
Although becoming a mother wasn’t originally something that was on the singer’s “list of to-dos,” Pink quickly adapted to the role. “I had Willow and, man, that saying of ‘watching your heart go walking outside of your body.’ It’s truly how it feels,” she told theTodayshow in a May 2021 interview.
Opening up to PEOPLE in her February 2023 cover story, the “Just Like Fire” hitmaker admitted that she never pictured herself having children, as she was“terrified” she would be a “terrible mother.”
“But, oh my God, being a mom is the most incredible thing I’ve ever done. It’sshockinghow responsible I’ve become,” she explained at the time.
During an interview forPEOPLE’s 2018 Beautiful Issue, Pink opened up about her parenting style.
“I believe in affection,” she said. “I believe in needs being met and faith being implemented, and I believe in letting your kids know they can count on you, and that you’ll be there.”
She added, “I always tell Willow, ‘I’m going to teach you the rules so that you’ll know how and when to break them.’ "
The now 13-year-old is a big supporter of her rockstar mom. In February 2019, ahead of Pink’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, Willow penned a sweet note that showed her pride.
“Willow wrote me a note that said, ‘Mama, this is a big deal. And I’m glad it’s you and notJustin Beaver,’ ” the “Try” singer said during an interview onThe Ellen DeGeneres Show. “I was like, that is so random — how does she even know … I don’t know. It was cute. I was like, ‘This must be a big deal.’ ”
Here’s everything to know about Pink and Carey Hart’s daughter, Willow Sage Hart.

Throughout the European dates of the Summer Carnival 2024 tour, Willow has been singing “Cover Me in Sunshine” alongside her mom, and she earned minimum wage for the performances.
“She’s very happy with that, and she works her butt off,” Pink told PEOPLE at the Bob Mackie: Naked Illusion evening.
Pink has previously discussed her daughter’s tour salary and how she wasteaching her to negotiate.
“Willow has a job on tour,” Pink revealed to theTodayshow in February 2023. “We just had togo over minimum wage, and it’s different state to state.”
“I said it’s about $22.50 a show depending how long I go, if I run over. She goes, ‘I’ll take $20, it’s easier to do the math.’ I’m like, ‘That’s not how you negotiate for yourself,’ " she recalled. “I’m like, ‘You’ll take $25 so it’s easier math.’ "
In May 2021, Pink opened up to PEOPLE about being a rock star parent andraising kids while on the road.
“Touring with kids is impossible — and I did the impossible. For a while there were a lot of other pop stars that were emailing me and calling me for the playbook on how to tour with kids, so I wrote a playbook for other moms,” she said. “You just keep going. I’m just thinking about: ‘Am I raising a kind person? What’s it like to be my kid?’ "
