Justin Timberlake made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (Jan. 18) and for the first time, spoke about the baby boy he and Jessica Biel welcomed into the world in 2020.

 

Ellen begins, “Now listen, I’d completely forgotten this but you’re a dad again. You had another little child.  I think we were FaceTiming and you said, ‘Hey, do you want to know a secret?’ and then Jessica walked in and you put your hand on her stomach and you were like, ‘We’re having another baby!’”

 

Justin replied, “You’re one of the first people outside of our immediate family that we told.  We were FaceTiming each other and we were like, ‘How are you doing?’ ‘I don’t know, how are you doing?’”

Ellen then asked Justin to ‘vaguely reveal the age and name of his new baby boy.’  “Vaguely? Yeah, I’ll tell you his name. His name is Phineas and he’s awesome and he’s so cute and nobody is sleeping, but we’re thrilled and couldn’t be happier. Very grateful,” Justin revealed.

Justin joked, “Jessica and I don’t see each other anymore now that we have two kids.  It’s a lot of fun but I guess the saying goes, ‘Go from a zone defense to a man-to-man very quickly.  ‘You go get that one, I’ll get this one.’ But it’s great and Silas is super excited. Right now, he’s very much liking it but, you know, Phin can’t walk yet or chase him down, so, I don’t know, we’ll see what happens.”

 

In July of 2020, news broke that Jessica had given birth to their second child.  Justin’s friend and longtime collaborator Brian McKnight was the first to confirm the baby news followed by *NSYNC member Lance Bass, who told Entertainment Tonight that ‘Justin would kill him if he shared the baby’s sex or name.’

 

Justin also celebrates his 40th birthday on Jan. 31.  Ellen asked how he feels about turning 40, “It’s got to be better than my 39th year,” he jokes.
