Jennifer Aniston’s<\/a> ex husband Justin Theroux <\/a>has announced the birth of his first child. The Leftovers star, 54, and his new wife Nicole Brydon Bloom, 32, took to social media to post a picture of their new arrival – a baby boy.<\/p>\n

Captioning the black and white image of the tot laying on Justin’s naked chest, in a bid to have skin to skin contact, they jointly said: “He’s here.” This was followed by a dove of peace emoji.<\/p>\n

The caption added: “We’re so in love.” Justin enjoyed a low-key wedding last year to Nicole, who is famous for roles including Agent Jane in HBO’s Paradise, eight years after his divorce from the former Friends star.<\/p>\n

The pair married on a beach in Tulum in Mexico and nine months later, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together.<\/p>\n

At the time the gender was kept firmly under wraps. The pair went public with their pregnancy<\/a> in December last year after Nicole showed off her baby bump at the season two premiere of Justin’s Amazon Prime show, Fallout.<\/p>\n

Back in February 2023, they were first spotted together and the following year speculation of an engagement hit fever pitch after she was seen with a ring on her wedding finger.<\/p>\n

According to American media outlet People, the actor gave her a four-carat diamond engagement ring by jeweller Stephanie Gottlieb.<\/p>\n

In 2018, after three years of marriage, Jennifer Anniston and Justin called it quits. The couple never shared a family together. But last year, the actress, famed for her many roles in romantic comedies, shared why she had not considered adopting a child.<\/p>\n

According to a previous interview with the Hollywood star, she claimed that she chose to not adopt because she desperately wanted her “own DNA in a little person.”<\/p>\n

She also revealed that she had endured many rounds of IVF but was tragically unsuccessful. During an appearance on the Armchair Expert podcast, she explained: “When people say: ‘But you can adopt’. I don’t want to adopt. I want my own DNA in a little person. That’s the only way, selfish or not, whatever that is, I’ve wanted it.”<\/p>\n

And this was the point where co-host Monica Padman asked Jennifer if she has finally found “peace” with her fertility journey. In response, Jennifer said: “It’s so peaceful. But I will say there’s a point where it’s like out of my control. There’s literally nothing I can do about it.”<\/p>\n

She added: “”It [having kids] just wasn’t in the plan, whatever the plan was. It’s very emotional, especially in the moment when they say ‘that’s it,’ because there is a weird<\/a> moment when that happens.”<\/p>\n

The actress famed for her wit and comedy timing had previously revealed her struggles back in 2022 during an interview with Allure magazine.<\/p>\n

She aacknowledged: “My late 30s, 40s, I’d gone through really hard s***, and if it wasn’t for going through that, I would’ve never become who I was meant to be. I was trying to get pregnant.”<\/p>\n

She added: “It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it. I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me ‘freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favour’.”<\/p>\n

She concluded: “You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed. But I have zero regrets.”<\/p>\n
