McPhee welcomed her bundle of joy in February 2021 with husband David Foster, 72.
At the time, a rep confirmed the news of the baby's birth.
"Katharine McPhee and David Foster have welcomed a healthy baby boy," the rep told People. "Mom, Dad and son are all doing wonderfully."
The Pair Met On 'American Idol'
The couple married in June 2019. They met in 2006 when the Grammy winner mentored McPhee and other contestants on season 5 of "American Idol."

In April, McPhee talked about being a new mom during a recent appearance on "The Kelly Clarkson Show."
"I'm a little bit tired here and there, but I find times to nap and he's such a good little baby,” she told host Kelly Clarkson. "I'm so in love. ... It's my greatest job I'll ever have."
Clarkson also shared, "The hardest thing for me is when they're so freaking cute and you love them so much, but they're doing something that's naughty and you're like, ‘Nope, you will not twist me around your finger!'"
McPhee, however, admitted that it’s hard for her to imagine those days ahead when looking into her baby's adoring eyes.
"My girlfriend ... was like, ‘Oh, can you even imagine that you're going to have to get mad at him one day?’" the singer recalled. “And I'm like, ‘No, he's so sweet right now. I can't imagine."'
