​Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel welcome baby boy

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are now parents.

People reports that the couple welcomed their first child -- a son named Silas Randall Timberlake.

Reps say they're doing well and that Timberlake is "ecstatic."

The newborn's name holds a special significance for the singer. Timberlake's maternal grandfather. who died in 2012, was named Bill Silas Bomar. Randall, meanwhile, is both Timberlake's middle name and his father's first name.

Biel and Timberlake started dating in 2007 before getting engaged in 2011. They wed in 2012.

Pregnancy news surfaced last year, but it wasn't until January that Timberlake, 34, and Biel, 33, confirmed it.

"Thank you EVERYONE for the Bday wishes! This year, I'm getting the GREATEST GIFT EVER. CAN'T WAIT," he wrote alongside a photo of himself kissing Biel's bare baby belly.
