Justin Timberlake has confirmed that he and Jessica Biel have welcomed their second child following a secret pregnancy.
The singer called in for a virtual interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, due to air today, to reveal his happy news.
Sharing that he and actor wife Biel now have a second son, he also revealed that the new baby is called Phineas.
Timberlake said: "He's awesome and so cute. Nobody's sleeping. But we're thrilled. We're thrilled and couldn't be happier. Very grateful."
Phineas is a new brother for Silas, five, and Timberlake joked about the challenges of going from one child to two.

He said of life for him and Biel: "We don't see each other any more.
"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."
Timberlake added that Silas was enjoying being a big brother but that “Phin can’t walk yet or chase him down”, so that might change.
The couple kept their pregnancy news private, only telling close family that they were expecting again.
However, close friend DeGeneres was one of the few people who knew about the pregnancy after they shared their news with her on a FaceTime call.
Biel and Timberlake got married in 2012 and had Silas in 2015.
In 2018, Biel spoke to Entertainment Tonight about wanting a bigger family, saying: "Kids are amazing. They are really hard, but they are really amazing.
"I think it would be amazing to have a bigger family. I don't know if that is in the cards for us, we will see."
