Justin Timberlake welcomes child with wife Jessica Biel and shares cute name
Justin Timberlake has confirmed he and wife Jessica Biel have welcomed a second child.
He confirmed that arrival of a son during a virtual appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which will air on Monday.
The 39-year-old singer said: “He’s awesome and so cute. Nobody’s sleeping.
“But we’re thrilled. We’re thrilled and couldn’t be happier. Very grateful.”
He also revealed that they have named their son, Phineas.
The couple welcomed their first child, son Silas, in April 2015 after getting married in 2012.
Justin revealed that they kept their pregnancy ‘secret’ apart from immediate family, though he admitted that Ellen was one of the few that knew about it.
Ellen said to the new daddy: “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, ‘I’m having another baby!'”
The TV host asked Justin what it was like being a parent to two children compared to when having just one.
The singer joked: “We don’t see each other anymore.
“It’s a lot of fun. I guess the saying goes go from a zone defense to a man-to-man really quickly. It’s great. Silas is super excited.”
Speaking about how five-year-old Silas is adapting to being a big brother, Justin said: “Right now he’s very much liking it.
“Phin can’t walk yet or chase him down, so we’ll see what happens.”
The singer also revealed that Silas was getting in video games and is developing into a little gamer.
Justin revealed this when asked whether he was showing signs of being a musician.
He added: “But he’s into Legos and tennis. We got him a Nintendo Switch. It’s just like, child crack.”
With Justin enjoying playing golf, he says that his son is also getting into the game.
Justin shared: “He likes golf, but I’m not pressing it.
“I want him to like it if he likes it. He’s fast and active so he’s very good at tennis.”
