Meet the newest Backstreet Boy: Baylee Thomas Wylee
Littrell.
Baby Baylee, the spawn of Backstreeter Brian Littrell and
wife Leighanne, made his grand entrance Tuesday at 7:41
p.m. in Atlanta, tipping the scales at 6 pounds, 7 ounces.
According to
band spokeswoman Sonia Muckle,
"both Mom and baby are doing well."
In a brief statement, the newbie
parents said, "God has blessed our
family in so many ways, and we are
proud and very excited to welcome our
new healthy baby boy into the world."
Littrell, 27, becomes the first
Backstreeter with his very own brood.
He and Wallace, 33, have been married
for two years. They met while shooting
the band's 1997 video "As Long As You
Love Me," in which she was an extra.
She has also appeared in such TV
series as Silk Stalkings and One Life to Live. They became engaged in 1999 and
reside in suburban Atlanta.
His bandmate (and cousin) Kevin Richardson is the only other married
Backstreeter, tying the knot with dancer Kristin Willits just three months before
Littrell.
A third member, A.J. McLean, will tip the Backstreet balance from bachelor- to
hitched-heavy in January, when he's scheduled to walk the aisle with his steady,
singer Sarah Jo Martin. The two became engaged last December.
Nick Carter and Howie Dorough are the remaining unbetrothed Boys.
Aside from making babies, Littrell has been plotting two big projects with his
bandmates: the follow-up to 2000's Black & Blue and a just-filed $100 million
lawsuit against their record company seeking to void their contract.
