Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin Bieber are already loving their time as parents, just days after bringing their newborn son home from the hospital.

A source close to Justin, 30, exclusively tells PEOPLE that both new mom Hailey, 27, and baby boy Jack Blues are “doing well” at home.

"They're both overjoyed. The baby is such a miracle. He's adorable and doing well," the source says. "Hailey's doing well, too."

The source added that the couple had been praying for the pregnancy for a while — and the day they learned that Hailey was expecting was the "best ever."

The Biebers first announced they were expecting a child together in May 2024, when they shared the news about Hailey's pregnancy to Instagram. At the time, a rep for Hailey confirmed to PEOPLE that the model was about six months pregnant.

The pair tied the knot in September 2018 in a New York City courthouse wedding after becoming engaged two months prior. They later celebrated with family and friends in a larger South Carolina ceremony in Bluffton.
