NEW YORK (Reuters) - Jack White, half of rock duo The White Stripes, and his supermodel wife Karen Elson have become the "proud parents" of a baby boy, White's publicist said on Wednesday.

Henry Lee White was born on Tuesday in Tennessee. "The new child and his mother are both feeling very healthy and happy," publicist Chloe Walsh said in a statement. The couple also have a 15-month-old daughter, Scarlett.

White and Meg White make up The White Stripes. The pair have long claimed to be brother and sister, but the Detroit Free Press reported in 2001 that they were once married and divorced in March 2000.
