Canadian singer Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey became parents. On Friday, August 23, 2024, they welcomed their first son into the world. Justin announced the happy news on his Instagram, where he shared a photo of little Jack’s foot with the touching caption: “Welcome home Jack Blues Bieber.”
Their son’s name follows a family tradition where the initials “JB” have a special meaning. Justin, his father Jeremy, and some of his siblings share the same combination of initials, which has now been passed down to little Jack. In addition, the name Jack is a tribute to the singer’s father, whose middle name is Jack.
However, Justin’s relationship with his father has been quite complicated over the years. His parents separated a few months before his birth in 1994. They were both 18 years old at the time. His mother raised Justin alone, his father appeared in his life only later. In interviews, Justin has admitted that the relationship with him was strained for a long time and that their connection gradually built as he matured and gained insight into the family dynamic.
Justin and Hailey met in 2009 when they were both still teenagers, but their relationship only started to develop later. In 2018, they married in a secret ceremony in New York, and a year later they had a big wedding for family and friends in South Carolina. In May 2024, the couple announced that Hailey was pregnant and now they are rejoicing in the arrival of their son. Actor Chris Pratt, fashion designer Donatella Versace and actress Alyssa Milano sent congratulations on the offspring via the social network.
