Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are going to have a baby, former NYSYNC bandmate Joey Fantone says

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake haven't confirmed this yet, but their friend Joey Fantone has already admitted to In Touch Weekly in an interview that the couple are expecting their first baby. Said Fantone: "He [Timberlake] told me a while ago, and I kept my mouth shut. But now I can talk about it!"

Fantone also thinks the two are already more than ready to become parents. "Jessica is awesome, and Justin is a kid at heart. [They'll have] fun," he said in the interview.

Fantone, 37, was a former band mate of Timberlake, 33, in the 1990s dance-pop boy band NSYNC, along with JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick and Lance Bass. Fantone was the band's baritone-voice singer.

However, it wasn't who first spilled the beans about Biel's pregnancy. In October, InStyle editor Ariel Foxman posted on Instagram, "Congrats @jessicabiel on your impending motherhood ... Looking forward to the red carpet maternity style pix to come #tbt."

Biel, 32, and Timberlake celebrated their second wedding anniversary on October 19. As far as Biel is concerned, she has always been open about wanting to have kids with Timberlake. In a talk last year with People, she said: "I'm not sure about sooner or later, but definitely at some point.

Timberlake on the other hand, according to Daily Mail, last year told OK! Magazine: "I'm not against the idea [of parenthood] at all, but I think I still have some time ahead of me. Let's leave it to fate. Life didn't change overnight. Marriage, family - it's all part of the normal steps you take when you reach your thirties."
Biel who's currently filming for Director Diane Bell's Shiva and May, a drama about a yoga-instructor who is trying to protect her prostitute sister from her deadbeat boyfriend, is reportedly also planning to open an organic restaurant and bakery called Au Fudge by next spring on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood.
