Jessica Biel Says 'Baby Brain' Caused Her Forgetfulness

Jessica Biel is getting real about the side effects of motherhood!

The 38-year-old actress joked that she had “baby brain” during the Television Critics Association Winter 2021 virtual panel for her new series Cruel Summer after accidentally forgetting to answer a question.

Cruel Summer is Jessica‘s first project since giving birth to her son Phineas and it is set to premiere on Freeform in April. She serves as an executive producer on the show.

News broke that the actress had given birth to her second child with husband Justin Timberlake in July 2020, though the pair didn’t officially confirm the news until earlier this year. The couple are also parents to five-year-old Silas.

“His name is Phineas, and he’s awesome and so cute, and nobody’s sleeping,” Justin revealed in an appearance on Ellen. “But we’re thrilled. We’re thrilled and couldn’t be happier. Very grateful.”

Justin also added that he and his wife are still getting used to having two little ones in the house.

“It’s a lot of fun but I guess the saying goes, ‘Go from a zone defense to a man-to-man very quickly,” he said. “‘You go get that one, I’ll get this one.’ But it’s great and Silas is super excited. Right now, he’s very much liking it but, you know, Phin can’t walk yet or chase him down, so, I don’t know, we’ll see what happens.”

Earlier this month, Jessica left a supportive comment on Justin‘s apology to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson.
