Meet my little Backstreet Boy! Howie Dorough shares snap of new baby boy Holden John

The couple already have one son James Hoke, born in 2009.

And now Backstreet Boys star Howie Dorough and his wife Leigh have become parents for the second time.

The 39-year-old singer proudly posted a picture on his Twitter page, with the message: 'We're so excited to share this news with you all! Say hello to Holden John Dorough!'

It's a boy! Backstreet Boy Howie Dorough announced via Twitter the birth of his second son Holden John, who was born on Saturday, three days ahead of his due date

Hello world! Howie told People, 'Holden is healthy and we couldn't be happier.'

Holden was born on Saturday, weighing in at 6lbs., 15 oz. and 20 inches long, Howie told People.
The little boy was clearly eager to make his debut, arriving three days ahead of his due date.
'He surprised us...' Howie told the publication, but 'Holden is happy and we couldn't be happier.'

Longtime love: Howie praised his wife Leigh, pictured in 2012, for being an 'incredible woman and mother.'

The boyband member also praised his longtime partner Leigh, who he married in 2007:

'Leigh is such an incredible woman and mother, and our son is so excited to have a baby brother. I feel so lucky to have such an amazing family.'

 

The couple gave birth to their eldest son James Hoke on May 6, 2009. He too arrived early, in this case a whole month before his June due date.

We had one too! Fellow bandmate AJ McClean, pictured with his wife Rochelle in 2012, became a father for the first time to baby girl Ava Jaymes in November

Howie's bandmate AJ Maclean also recently became a father to a baby girl.
The singer and his wife Rochelle became first time parents when they welcomed Ava Jaymes into the world in November.

The 34-year-old was excited when the couple found out they were having a girl, posting on Twitter:

'Yay we’re having a baby girl!!!!!' A.J. wrote on Twitter. 'Little baby Ava Jaymes.'
