Joey Fatone's marriage advice to Justin Timberlake: Don't listen to BS

Joey Fatone has offered marriage advice to Justin Timberlake as rumours of the 'My Love' singer's engagement to Jessica Biel continue.

Fatone cautioned that he hasn't yet been able to confirm the engagement with Timberlake, but did suggest that his former 'N Sync bandmate and Biel should ignore the tabloids.

"[I'd tell them not to] listen to all the BS," he told Parade. "Especially in his situation, he and his fiance [Jessica Biel] - I haven't really talked to him about everything yet - but they're both in the limelight as well. It's tough for those celebrity couples. It's really hard."

Fatone further explained that he's lucky because his courtship of wife Kelly Baldwin didn't attract media attention.

"My wife wasn't in the limelight, which made it easier. The key is to keep it happy, light, and fun. There can be a lot of drama, like when you have kids," he said. "And both [Timberlake and Biel] have jobs where they are taken to different places. It's the communication that really needs to drive that relations! hip."

Timberlake and Biel were first rumoured to have got engaged on a trip to Jackson, Wyoming in January, but they have yet to comment on the reports.
