New Kids on the Block’s Joey McIntyre to Be a Dad
June 2nd, 2007
Former New Kids on the Block singer and season-one Dancing With the Stars contestant Joey McIntyre and his wife, Barrett, are expecting a child, he has announced on his Web site. “I just bought a new house in L.A. We loved the beach in Venice, but what can I say, that freakin’ commute kills ya,” he writes. “Plus, it’s really a dream house for us and we are gonna need some more room – because my wifey is pregnant! Can you believe it?! I can!” These comments clearly show how excited he is at news of his wifey being pregnant and at the prospect of having a baby to share and love all things. It’s fitting that McIntyre’s big news should accompany a change in living quarters: The singer, 34, met his wife, real estate agent Barrett Williams, 28, in 2002 when she showed him a house at 809 Nowita Place in Venice, Calif. (He was her first client.) The following year, he released a solo album, 8:09 – the address of the Venice house and his wedding date. “I had to find someone smarter than me, funnier than me and crazier than me, and I found her.”
