It appears that Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have pulled a fast one. The celebrity couple reportedly welcomed their second child this week, after reportedly keeping the actress's pregnancy "top secret" for the past nine months.
On Saturday, British tabloid, the Daily Mail "exclusively" revealed that The Sinner star "gave birth to a baby boy earlier this week". The publication claimed that Biel's mother, Kimberly Conroe Biel, stayed with the couple at their home in Big Sky, Montana, for much of her daughter's pregnancy.
A friend of Conroe Biel's, contacted at her house in Colorado, reportedly confirmed the baby's arrival.
While neither Biel nor Timberlake have acknowledged or confirmed the report, the Mail highlights that the pair have not been photographed since March. Biel did post several photos on Instagram to celebrate her 38th birthday on the 3rd of March, but large cakes and flowy clothing largely covered up her midsection.
"Celebrating my birthday in style... and by that I mean, in pajamas. I made Justin PROMISE not to sing Happy Birthday to me, so he improvised. Sorry you can’t hear it, but I’m still laughing [...] Thank you, you wonderful human, for really listening to me, and for throwing my kinda party. And thank YOU ALL for the birthday wishes. Feeling the love [sic]," Biel captioned her birthday post.

Otherwise, the couple have not posted recent snaps showing anything below the neck.
This comes after Biel and Timberlake have allegedly been "working on their marriage", according to The Cut, after photographs emerged of the Senorita singer holding hands with his Palmer co-star, Alisha Wainwright, in late 2019.
Timberlake subsequently stated that the incident was a "strong lapse in judgment", and issued a public apology for putting his "amazing wife and family … through such an embarrassing situation."
The couple tied the knot in 2012, and welcomed their first child, Silas Randall Timberlake, back in 2015.
