BABY ARRIVES AS JUSTIN FIGHTS TO HOLD ONTO JESS!

SECOND CHILD FOR COUPLE SHAKEN BY HIS FLIRTY PAST

- NE Jessica Biel, Justin Timberlake and Alisha Wainwright did not respond to requests for comment.

PROUD papa Justin Timberlake may have welcomed his second child with Jessica Biel, but sources said he’s facing an uphill battle to keep their shaky marriage on track!

The “7th Heaven” beauty, 38, reportedly gave birth to the couple’s second son on July 18 after a bitterswee­t pregnancy that began just before her boozed-up beau, 39, got busted in November getting cozy in New Orleans with his “Palmer” co-star Alisha Wainwright.

“Some of her friends said Jessica only stayed with Justin because she sensed she was pregnant — if she didn’t know it already,” an insider dished to The National ENQUIRER. “The months and weeks that followed were among the most tormented she ever had — when it should have been the happiest period of her life!” As The ENQUIRER reported,

Justin insisted his handholdin­g with Alisha, 31, was innocent and has repeatedly apologized to Jessica — both in the press and at home — and he’s been trying to win back his wife’s trust ever since! Sources said Justin and Biel — who wed in 2012 and are also parents to five-year-old Silas — came within a whisker of splitting after the nowinfamou­s episode.

In the aftermath, the “SexyBack” singer and his spouse have been in couples therapy, and he’s promised to spend more time at home with Silas, insiders spilled.

Though a source said the couple were in a good place at the start of the pandemic when they first hunkered down at their second home in Big Sky, Mont., more recent reports said their bickering escalated during the lonely lockdown.

“They have been together too long, and it’s weighed on them,” the source tattled. “It’s Justin’s job to prove he’s this truly changed man — but regardless, they’ll always have that night hanging over their heads like a dark cloud.”

Their relationsh­ip became strained once more recently after Jessica caught her flirty hubby trading cutesy online comments with former flame Britney Spears, causing the “Sinner” star to fume, sources dished.

Now insiders are saying Jessica has imposed new, nonnegotia­ble rules for her

husband to follow in an effort to save their marriage! "He's got to be fully transparen­t about everything in his life now," spoiled a tipster.

“They’re still having therapy once a week — no exceptions, and reading together about what sustains a great relationsh­ip, while sharing household chores and being more in tune with their spiritual sides.”
