Justin Bieber reveals his and Hailey's son Jack Blues is already following in his footsteps

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Justin Bieber is happy that his infant son, Jack Blues Bieber, is following in his footsteps.

While it's too early to determine whether the four-month-old will show musical prowess like his pop star father when he grows up, one thing is sure - that he is ready for hockey fandom. 

Treading in the ‘Baby’ singer’s footsteps, Jack Blues, whom Justin shares with his wife, Hailey Bieber, has emerged as one of the youngest fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team.

The 30-year-old Canadian-born singer has never shied away from showing his love for ice hockey.

Recently, he shared that his young son is also ready to follow in his footsteps after the infant received an autographed jersey from the Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews.

The Canadian hockey star addressed the gift, writing, "To JB Jr. Peace and Love."

On Monday, January 6, Justin posted a picture of the adorable blue jersey, with his own caption, "4 babyjb," and tagged the hockey star. 

Notably, Justin, who hails from Stratford, Ontario, grew up playing the sport. He even served as celebrity captain for Team Matthews at the NHL All-Star Game in Toronto in February 2024.

As per E! News, during the game, the 'Yummy' hitmaker told ESPN, "This has been unbelievable. I feel like I’ve actually had vivid dreams about this at night, so it’s beautiful."

Justin, who had to take a hiatus from music after being diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in 2022, also made his stage comeback during the 2024 NHL All-Star Player Draft. 

In August 2024, Justin marked his son's arrival through a simple yet poignant post, writing, "WELCOME HOME. JACK BLUES BIEBER 🐻."

Hockey has always been one of the most meaningful things in Justin Bieber's life

This is not the first time that the 'Peaches' singer has made his love for the Leafs known on Instagram. Back in March 2023, Justin Bieber penned a heartfelt post in support of the ice hockey team. 

He shared, "Growing up in Canada and being a leafs fan has always been one of the most meaningful things about life. Having these games to look forward to as a kid made for memories that I will cherish forever! I keep falling more in love with the game of hockey! I want people to know how fun it is and how cool it is and how it deeply connects families all around the world."

"One of my missions in life is to continue to help evolve the culture of hockey making it feel inclusive for everyone! Unfortunately hockey can be an expensive sport which is why we partnered up with Tim Hortons and the Toronto maple leafs to help in this area," he added. 

Talking about his initiative, Justin wrote, "We want people all over the world to have access to the game! HOCKEY IS FOR EVERYONE , it’s a game that can teach us about teamwork, chemistry, coordination, style, managing disappointment, growth etc. our leafs lost last night but still made for beautiful memories with my beautiful family."

"So grateful to the NHL and the Leafs organization for including me in telling the story of hockey and what it means to so many of us. GO LEAFS GO," concluded the pop icon.
