The 48-year-old comedian revealed the news during a stand-up routine at the O2 Academy Brixton in London, where he discussed the arrival of his baby boy amid a series of gags about abortions and comas.
Jimmy - who is thought to have secretly welcomed a baby two years ago with his long-time girlfriend Karoline Copping - joked during his routine: "I had to tell my little boy he’s adopted.
"I mean, he isn’t, but the look on his face. I said, ‘No, no, no, you were adopted, the new family is picking you up tomorrow.'"
The stand-up star also joked about staging a gender reveal party for his baby boy, The Sun newspaper reports.
Jimmy quipped: "We’re having a gender-reveal party for our kid but we’re going to wait until he’s 21 just to be sure.
"With some babies you can’t tell, is it a boy or an ugly girl?"
The '8 Out of 10 Cats' host had previously remained tight-lipped about the arrival of his son.
However, in 2020, he was spotted pushing a buggy around the streets of London with Karoline.
Meanwhile, Jimmy previously decided to undergo a makeover because he was concerned about his appearance.
The TV star - who has had work done on his teeth - is keen to maintain his looks, rather than change things entirely.
He explained: "I think that thing of age is that people don’t really see what’s there, people are good at pattern recognition, that’s all they do, teeth and hair.
"Maintaining is the thing. I don’t think there’s anything you can do plastic surgery wise, or augmentation wise, that makes you look better, you can just sort it stay the same, that’s what you can hope for."
