Joey Fatone: 'Justin Timberlake will be a great dad'

Justin Timberlake's former 'N Sync bandmate Joey Fatone is confident the pop superstar will be a "great" father amid reports suggesting his wife Jessica Biel is pregnant.

Representatives for the SexyBack hitmaker and Biel have declined to comment on swirling rumors alleging the couple is expecting its first child, although The A-Team star did little to hide what appeared to be a growing baby bump when she stepped out in Los Angeles earlier this month (04Dec14), wearing a blue blazer over a white top and a high-waisted gray skirt.

Now Fatone, a father of two, has offered up his thoughts on how Timberlake will measure up as a dad.

He tells People.com, "I think he's going to be a great dad.

"He's always been great with kids in general. He's going to be great. I think he'll be very hands-on."

Timberlake and Biel wed in 2012.
