Among others on the virtual call were Tim’s mother and Beyonce’s mom, Tina Knowles.
The Motivation singer also hailed Beyonce and Michelle as ‘awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome’ aunts to both her sons and recalled how they rushed to meet Noah, in person, as soon as they could.
‘They met him immediately,’ she told the outlet.

The Dilemma hitmaker previously spoke of how overwhelmed with love she felt when her bandmates met her son for the first time.
‘The girls were literally over here at the house just recently and when they met the baby, it was like another part of my heart just … being able to share space with Michelle and Bey is truly a gift,’ Rowland raved.
Additionally, the mother-of-two described their enduring friendship as ‘really a gift’ because it’s so rare in the music industry.

The Voice Australia coach marveled: ‘[It is] really a gift, because we’ve known each other for so long and the industry doesn’t really make friendships.’
‘I’m just so grateful for them and they are a highlight of my life. Not professionally, but our friendship and our sisterhood — you’re going to make me cry,’ Rowland, who rose to fame in the late 1990s as a member of Destiny’s Child, reflected.
Kelly also admitted she values their friendship more than any of their best-selling girl group’s musical achievements, which includes selling 60 million records worldwide.
‘This is the little cocoon I’ve been in with Noah! I hope this makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside,’ she captioned a video of her singing to little Noah, earlier this month.
‘I always say with Destiny’s Child, the singing together and winning awards and everything like that is great, but the friendship that we share still to this day… I can’t even tell you,’ she noted.
Earlier this month, she apologized for being ‘MIA on social media’ since giving birth.
