Bass and Turchin’s son, Alexander James, was born on Oct. 13, 2021. He arrived just one minute before his sister, making him the older sibling. A day after their twins entered the world, Bass announced that he and Turchin had become fathers by sharing photos of their children’s birth certificates on Instagram. “The baby dragons have arrived!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I can not express how much love I feel right now,” Bass wrote.
That December, Bass told People that transitioning into parenthood had been “easier” than the couple expected. “They’ve been so well-behaved. They don’t make too much noise,” the singer said of the twins. Turchin added, “They’re just such relaxed, fun, good kids so far.”
Despite their children only being a few months old at the time, Turchin said he could already tell they had “two very different personalities.” As for their son, the actor described “little Alexander” as being “such a sweet, docile little boy.”
However, once their kids became toddlers, Turchin realized Alexander was actually a “ball of crazy energy.” Bass even said that he saw their son following in his entertainer footsteps one day. “They saw Nick Carter and everyone rehearsing and my son was just in awe,” Bass told E! News in February. “He had to get on stage. He held a microphone for the first time and he knew. I’m like, ‘Oh no, we might have a performer.'”
