Justin Bieber and his wife welcome their first child

In an exciting turn of events, Justin Bieber and his wife, Hailey Baldwin, have officially embraced parenthood! The pop sensation, 30, and his model-entrepreneur wife, 27, joyfully welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Jack Blues Bieber. The couple shared this heartwarming news on Friday, August 23, via their social media accounts, much to the delight of their fans.

Justin took to Instagram to announce their son’s arrival, captioning a post with the words, 'WELCOME HOME JACK BLUES BIEBER.' The post quickly garnered attention, with Hailey also sharing the same image on her Instagram Stories, adding the child’s name along with a teddy bear and a blue heart emoji.

The joy was shared among their family members as well. Justin’s mother, Pattie Mallette, expressed her excitement on Twitter, writing, 'CONGRATULATIONS @justinbieber & Hailey. I LOVE YOU FOREVER BABY JACK!!' Hailey’s father, Stephen Baldwin, echoed these sentiments by sharing Mallette’s tweet and adding his blessings, 'Amen, Congratulations to you and may God continue to bless our family.'

The couple initially announced they were expecting back in May 2024. The news broke through an Instagram post, which included a few tender photos of Hailey showing off her growing baby bump. In a video from their vow renewal ceremony, Hailey looked radiant in a long, lacy white dress with a veil, accentuating her pregnancy glow. She stood with Justin in a picturesque field, his arms lovingly wrapped around her belly, and their matching wedding rings on display.

Hailey’s pregnancy journey, though kept relatively private, had its fair share of public attention. Back in October, Hailey addressed ongoing rumours about her pregnancy in an interview with GQ Hype, expressing her frustration over the constant speculation. She candidly remarked on how disheartening it was that any slight physical change led to pregnancy rumours. Despite the scrutiny, Hailey maintained that when the time was right, she would share the news on her terms.

While the couple has always been open about their desire to start a family, Justin made it clear that he respected Hailey’s pace. In a December 2020 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Justin shared his eagerness to have children but emphasized that he was committed to following Hailey’s timeline. 'I am going to have as many [babies] as Hailey is wishing to push out. I'd love to have myself a little tribe,' he said, highlighting his enthusiasm for a large family. 'But, yeah, it's her body and whatever she wants to do. ... I think she wants to have a few.'

Throughout her pregnancy, Hailey shared glimpses of her journey on social media, although she remained mostly reserved about the details. She did reveal some unique pregnancy cravings, such as pickles loaded with egg salad and hot sauce, and mentioned experiencing lower back pain. Despite the challenges, she continued to shine in various photoshoots, including a recent one for W magazine, where she wore a bedazzled butterfly crop top and a flowy Isabel Marant babydoll dress.

Hailey revealed that she chose to wait until she was six months along before publicly announcing the pregnancy because her bump 'stayed small for a long time.' As the pregnancy progressed, fans speculated that the couple might be expecting a girl after Hailey referred to their baby as a 'cherry blossom.' However, with the arrival of baby Jack Blues Bieber, those speculations have been put to rest.

The Biebers have been married since September 2018, following a whirlwind two-month engagement. Their intimate courthouse wedding in Manhattan was later followed by a grand celebration in Bluffton, South Carolina, where they exchanged vows in front of family and friends as the sun set.

With the arrival of their son, the couple embarks on a new chapter of their lives, one filled with the joys and challenges of parenthood. As Justin and Hailey settle into their roles as new parents, their fans eagerly await more glimpses into their journey, knowing that this is just the beginning of an exciting adventure for the Bieber family.
