Justin Timberlake is one of the best known celebrities in the world, but he is also a loving father of two. Now, the “Suit & Tie” singer is opening up about how to balance his public and personal life, especially when it comes to his children.
Appearing on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, the two celebrities discussed their lives in the spotlight, while balancing the privacy of their home lives. During the podcast, Timberlake talked about how he and his wife Jessica Biel navigate this gray area of protecting their children from public attention while trying to give them a normal life.
“I try to be aware that we can live a life where we are not strangely deprived, but we are aware that they can be children as long as possible, and not have someone else’s weight treating them differently because of something their parents do, “said Timberlake, 39, on the podcast.
Timberlake and Biel, 38, are the parents of son Silas, 5, and recently welcomed son Phineas into the family in 2020 – without any hype from the media. ‘

The couple managed to keep their pregnancy a secret during the pandemic because they spent most of their time in Montana with their eldest son, Silas.
During the podcast, Shepard recalled a story in which he instructed his sons – daughters Lincoln, 7 and Delta – not to tell other children that his mother, Kristen Bell, played Princess Anna in Disney’s “Frozen” – with which Timberlake shared a similar experience.

Timberlake, who played Branch in the movie “Trolls”, mentioned: “We have this same thing where kids at school with my five year old son are like, ‘Your dad is Branch'”.
“For guys like us, you know, the hope is that we will continue to instill in them that we have really fun jobs, but we are not who we are,” continued Timberlake. “Hopefully in the future, so it will have more weight, I think.”
