Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel confirm birth of second child

Congratulations!

Rumours had spread last year that pop star Justin Timberlake and wife and actor Jessica Biel had had another baby but hid it from the public.

And to be honest, 2020 was probably the best year to have a secret pregnancy as none of us could really leave the house.

Timberlake recently confirmed that all the rumours were true and that he and Biel had indeed welcomed another baby into the world.

The Cry Me A River singer revealed all while being interviewed on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, which has yet to be aired.

During the interview with DeGeneres the two of them recollected on a story where during a FaceTime Biel walked in with a pregnancy bump, and the couple revealed to DeGeneres that they were expecting;

“I think we were FaceTiming and you said ‘Hey, you want to know a secret?’ and then Jessica walked in and you put your hand on her stomach. You were like ‘We’re having another baby!'”

The 39-year-old, who also shares son Silas with Biel, went on to tell DeGeneres and viewers what his new baby has been named and that like most new parents, no one is getting much sleep;

“Yeah, I’ll tell you his name. His name is Phineas. He’s awesome and he’s so cute and nobody’s sleeping.

But we’re thrilled. We’re thrilled and couldn’t be happier.

Very grateful.”

Timberlake, who famously dated Britney Spears in the past, married Biel in 2012.

In 2019 issues emerged among the couple when Timberlake was photographed hand in hand with Alisha Wainwright in New Orleans while filming Palmer.

Timberlake apologised for his actions and insisted nothing more than hand holding occurred between himself and Wainwright, and the couple later reconciled.

We wish Timberlake and Biel all the best with their new bundle of joy and can’t wait to hear more from the happy family.
