Popular American singer Justin Bieber has finally addressed the swirling rumors regarding his marriage to model and entrepreneur Hailey Bieber, putting an end to days of speculation about an alleged divorce.
Reports had been making the rounds on social media platforms, with widespread claims suggesting that the celebrity couple — who married in a lavish ceremony in September 2018 — were on the verge of separation. Adding fuel to the fire, the couple had been under intense public scrutiny in recent months, despite celebrating the arrival of their first child in August 2024.
Breaking his silence, Justin Bieber took to his official Instagram page on Friday to share a heartfelt message, seemingly directed at those questioning the state of his marriage. Rather than offering a straightforward denial, the Grammy-winning artist chose to speak about forgiveness, jealousy, and the challenges of dealing with public criticism.
In a deeply personal post, Bieber lashed out at those spreading negativity about his relationship, while also reflecting on the grace he believes is found in faith and forgiveness.
He wrote:
“That feeling of guilt can be relieved. Not by going to church or reading your Bible, but just receiving that God forgives. The message is forgiveness. Jesus forgives who the culture never forgives.”
Bieber went on to describe the hostile treatment he often receives from the public and media, acknowledging that although he is frequently judged harshly, he also recognizes his own flaws.
“They treat me like ass out here, but if I remember that I’m flawed too and God forgave me, it helps me to stop feeling better than those who are mean and hurtful,” he continued. “Because when I am really honest, I can be mean and hurtful too.”
The “Peaches” singer admitted that while his initial reaction is often to judge those who gossip or spread lies about him, he tries to remain mindful of his own imperfections.
“My instinct is to be like, damn, I would not gossip, spread lies about someone on the internet,” Bieber wrote. “But there is other stuff I do I’m not proud of that God is gracious with. Hurt people hurt people.”
In the final part of his post, Justin Bieber directly addressed the jealousy he believes some people feel when they look at his relationship with Hailey. Without holding back, he suggested that their strong bond might be difficult for some critics to accept.
“Honestly, if I was you, it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going so brazzzzzy,” he said. “It is really up for us and that is understandable why people cannot stand it. I don’t blame them.”
While Bieber did not specifically mention the divorce rumors, his statements appear to reaffirm the strength of his marriage to Hailey, with whom he has consistently shared affectionate posts and public appearances.
The Biebers’ love story has been the subject of both adoration and controversy since they rekindled their romance and married just months later in 2018. Their relationship has often been compared to Justin’s previous high-profile relationships, most notably with singer Selena Gomez, which continues to be a topic of debate among fans and media alike.
Despite constant public attention — and occasional criticism — Justin and Hailey have maintained a united front, often speaking about the importance of faith, therapy, and open communication in keeping their marriage strong.
In a recent interview prior to the birth of their child, Hailey Bieber spoke about the challenges of navigating fame while building a family, noting:
“At the end of the day, our love for each other is the anchor. We’ve both grown so much individually and as a couple. Having faith as the foundation helps keep us grounded.”
Justin Bieber himself has been open about his mental health struggles in the past and how marriage, faith, and personal growth have played a major role in his healing journey.
Fans of the superstar were quick to react to his latest Instagram message, flooding the comments with messages of support and admiration.
One user wrote: “This is why we love you, Justin. Always real and always pointing us back to grace.”
Another added: “People will always talk, but real love speaks for itself. You and Hailey are proof of that.”
Meanwhile, media outlets have taken note of the Biebers’ decision to address the speculation in a way that highlights positivity rather than further inflaming gossip.
With the couple welcoming their first child in 2024, many fans believe this new chapter has only strengthened their bond. Photographs of the pair from recent public outings show a couple seemingly very much in love, focused on family and personal growth.
Although the divorce rumors captured attention online, Justin Bieber’s emotional and faith-centered response sends a clear message: he and Hailey are standing strong, despite the noise.
As the Biebers continue to navigate fame, family, and their shared journey of personal evolution, one thing is certain — they are determined to face it together.
