Hailey and Justin Bieber have shared a touching reason for naming their newborn son Jack Blues Bieber.
Hailey and Justin Bieber introduced their first child, naming him Jack to honour Justin’s father, Jeremy Bieber, whose middle name is Jack. This choice connects deeply with Justin’s past, considering his complicated relationship with his father, who left when Justin was just four.
In a 2015 Billboard interview, Justin discussed his father’s early absence, stating, “He was immature. He left for, like, a year when I was about 4. Went to British Columbia, came back on Father’s Day.” He clarified that despite the rocky start, his father had been present.
Over the years, Justin has revealed that he feels closer to his father than his mother, Pattie Mallette, who primarily raised him. This renewed connection with his father is reflected in the choice of their son’s name, symbolizing a significant reconciliation for Justin.
Pattie expressed joy over becoming a grandmother when the pregnancy was announced in May. She shared her excitement on Instagram, exclaiming, “Oh my gosh, I’m going to be a grandma. Oh my goodness!” She congratulated Justin and Hailey, proclaiming, “You are going to be the best parents ever, and I am so excited. Oh, my goodness. Praise God.”
Meanwhile, Hailey, 27, has described herself as “very independent” and “not super close” to her family despite cherishing “fond, beautiful memories” of her upbringing. However, her father, Stephen Baldwin, has expressed his delight in becoming a grandfather.
