It's Official: Former Boy Band Star Adds to His Family

Remember the boys band, New Kids on the Block? Long before the Backstreet Boys and 'N Sync, there was New Kids on the Block, a group of guys, including two brothers, that could sing and dance. Jordan Knight, a member of the former band, has just announced that he and his wife have added to their family by way of Eric Jacob Knight. He was born on Wednesday in Boston, where Knight is from, and weighed 7 pounds, five ounces. "I can't believe the strength of my wife," Knight, 36, tells People magazine. "Now that the intense emotions have passed, I'm walking around on cloud nine!"

Knight's older son, Dante Jordan, 7, just might be the most excited of the family. "He wouldn't sleep for a day and a half until he saw his baby brother," says Knight. "He was priceless."

Last year, Knight released his second solo album, Love Songs, which covers classic ballads. He has also appeared on reality television shows, including The Surreal Life and The Surreal Life Fame Games.
