Justin Bieber calls out 'jealousy' over his marriage with Hailey in statement
Justin Bieber has lashed out at social media users who have speculated he and wife Hailey Bieber are heading for divorce.
The duo, who welcomed their first child Jack in August, have endured a turbulent few months, with Justin's worrying online behaviour and speculation mounting that they are on the rocks after seven years of marriage.
With many fans worried about Justin – and others commenting on the status of his relationship – the Baby hitmaker, 31, has called out commentators as being 'jealous' of their marriage.
In a long and somewhat incoherent Instagram post, he said that feelings of 'guilt' can be relieved by 'not going to church'.
'They treat me like ass out here, but if I remember that I am flawed too and god forgave me,' Justin said, adding: 'It helps to stop feeling better than those people who are mean and hurtful.
'Because when I'm really honest I can be mean and hurtful too.

'My instinct is to be like damn I wouldn't gossip and spread lies about someone on the internet but there's other s**t I do I'm not proud of.'
The star continued: 'And honestly if I was u it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going as brazzzzyy.
'It's really up for us and that's understandable why people can't stand it,' he said.
'I don't blame em. Hailey and I are the Jones' that are impossible to keep up with.'
This post is the latest in a string of erratic social media ramblings from the Canadian singer, whose behaviour and dishevelled appearance has raised eyebrows in recent months.
Concern grew when he was spotted smoking an unidentified roll-up next to his teenage brother at Coachella, with fan footage also showing him hunched over and bobbing along loosely to his 2015 song What Do You Mean?, appearing to look unsteady on his feet.
Years after he rocketed into the spotlight at a young age producing hits including Sorry, Yummy, Love Yourself and One Less Lonely Girl, fans have become worried about Justin Bieber.
His last few years have seen big changes in the star's life. In 2022, he was diagnosed with facial paralysis condition Ramsay Hunt syndrome, and last year he became a dad for the first time after welcoming baby boy Jack with wife Hailey Bieber.
Justin called the concern about his behaviour 'exhausting', but continued to post worrying social media content.
In one, he declared that he was 'changing' and 'letting go'.
He wrote: 'Not trying harder! Are you tired of trying to follow all of the rules in hopes to get the results you crave?'
Explaining that love was 'more powerful than rules', he insisted: 'It's time to grow up. Changing is about letting go!
'I tried to follow the rules. I'm not good at it. But u don't need to follow rules to enter into a life of love. U just receive so enter love living!
'God always grants us love! It's one of his promises! Upon receiving God's love! U start to change and start following love.
'Today I'm letting go and remembering the weight isn't on me to change. The weight is on God. So I give all my insecurities and my fears to him this morning. Because I know he gladly takes it. Asking Jesus to genuinely help me with simply the next step today [sic].'
Earlier this year when fans noticed Justin had unfollowed his wife on social media, he claimed that someone had accessed his account without his knowledge.
In a short message before re-following Hailey, he fumed: 'Someone just went on my account and unfollowed my wife.
'S**t is getting suss out here.'
Earlier this year a source told The Daily Mail that Hailey, 28, doesn't know 'where to turn' for 'help' as Justin becomes more withdrawn.

'It's like he doesn't care about his well-being anymore,' they continued. 'He's moodier too. People are worried that he's lost any motivation, even for his music.' More Trending
They claimed he 'won't listen' to Hailey as he stops eating, drinking, and working — including when it comes to music which he used to love.
'He won't listen to her when she tries to help,' the source added. 'Hailey struggles with where to turn.
'It's not as if she can ask his family for help – or hers for that matter. They've both experienced estrangement from them.'

You've been drinking beer wrong and it's likely you've been doing it for years
Beer lovers, this one's for you. If you've been drinking beer all your life, you'll be surprised to find out you've probably been doing it wrong - according to an expert As the sun shines, many Brits flock to beer gardens for a refreshing pint with mates, but it turns out we might be enjoying our brews all wrong. From guzzling too quickly to choosing the incorrect glass, there are several faux pas you're likely committing when it comes to your pint. Grace Daley, Cruzcampo's UK senior brand manager, has revealed that a traditional pint glass might not be the best choice for your beer, which could shock many die-hard ale experts. Grace shared insights on why Cruzcampo is often served in a chalice to keep the beer "remains cold" and maintain the "lively" effervescence, as opposed to a standard pint glass. Grace advises beer enthusiasts to sip their drink "slowly", engaging "all your senses" to transform each gulp into an experience rather than hastily consuming without appreciation. For those aiming to impress as a "real expert", she suggests letting the flavour "glide over your tongue from front to back". Moreover, Grace warned against storing beer in the freezer or exposing it to direct sunlight, as these conditions can adversely affect the beer's taste. Beer isn't just for toasting; it can complement a fine meal as well. Forget what you know about wine pairings - beer has entered the chat, and according to one enthusiast, Cruzcampo is best enjoyed alongside tapas, because "the crisp, malty and slightly sweet taste, with a hint of bitterness cuts through rich, full-flavoured tapas". But that's not all - the way we've been drinking wine could be all muddled up too. Heather Muriello, a savvy New York-based booze expert, shared her wisdom on Instagram to her 10k fans, promising to elevate everyone's wine skills, especially when entertaining. She suggested in her post on her @winefarer page: "Have you heard of the 20/20 rule for wine?" She goes on to reveal the insider tip: "Learn this game-changing 20/20 rule in wine. Chill your reds in the fridge 20 minutes before serving to unleash their complex flavours, while letting whites rest out of the fridge for 20 minutes to reveal their full bouquet and bright acidity."

How a park under NYC's formerly 'most hated' bridge became its coolest venue
The walk from the Graham Avenue L station was just 30 minutes, but on the first really warm day of the early summer as the shaded sidewalks of Williamsburg disappeared into an increasingly industrial, treeless landscape, I kept wondering if the schlep would actually be worth it. When I arrived at my destination under the Kosciuszko Bridge (I can hear my father chuckling in disbelief), I was more than pleasantly surprised. This was June 2021 and I was there for Reggae Under the Bridge —one of the early, legally-sanctioned events held after the most strict Covid regulations had been lifted. My whole community and many more were there enjoying the sun, cool shade and—well into the evening—deep cuts blasting out of a massive sound system that overlooked the Newtown Creek and the eastern Manhattan skyline. It was absolutely joyous. Today, Under the K-Bridge has become one of New York's most unique and hippest venues. The 6.7-acre site—an open-air, multiuse space owned by the State Department of Transportation and run by the North Brooklyn Parks Alliance—has seen everything from events held by House of Yes to massively-attended DJ sets from popular electronic acts like Björk and Four Tet (whose recent set featured a surprise appearance from Skrillex). Alternative acts have taken to the space too: Hardcore punk group Turnstile performed at the K-Bridge in early June and CBGB Fest will bring the likes of Iggy Pop, the Sex Pistols and the Linda Lindas to the space in late September. View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Bowery Presents (@bowerypresents) 'Under the K-Bridge wants to take all my money this summer,' says Brooklyn-based writer Ana Yglesias, who plans to attend Ladyland Festival with Cardi B and FKA Twigs in June. Bands, bookers and fans like Yglesias are drawn to Under the K-Bridge for its only-in-New-York vibe. 'Under the K-Bridge offers such a unique experience for New Yorkers, something very raw, gritty and for the music,' says GRAMMY-winning South African DJ Black Coffee, whose two-night stand at the venue in 2024 drew thousands. 'You feel like you're part of a secret.' 'You're in the trendiest neighborhoods in New York, Greenpoint, Williamsburg, and then it kind of becomes this industrial neighborhood that you can't quite figure out what you're getting into,' says Jim Glancy, copartner of Bowery Presents, the main agency booking the venue. 'Then you start to hear music, and you're under this bridge and there's five or six or seven thousand people with sound and lights and this incredible music, and I think it is just touching people in a pretty incredible way.' Katie Denny Horowitz, executive director of the North Brooklyn Parks Alliance, points to a unique juxtaposition of nature and development. '[Under the K-Bridge exists] against the backdrop of the kind of gritty New York City that, I think, a lot of people are yearning for. It is not a fake space. It is a space that you do not just come across. You feel like you're part of a secret.' The park is situated directly under the BQE between Van Dam Street and Newtown Creek—a place that once seemed largely inaccessible due to the industrial business zone surrounding it and the traffic overhead. When a $1 billion makeover of the original Kosciuszko Bridge (the city's 'most hated,' per the New York Times) was completed in 2019, the Parks Alliance was already working on a plan to build out the space underneath the bridge's southern span. The Alliance held community workshops and visioning sessions, eventually landing on a multiuse space that included a skate park and a small amphitheater. Crucially for music lovers, 'large-scale events were something that was part of [the park's] DNA before shovels even hit the ground,' Denny Horowitz says. Following an illegal rave and a couple of break-ins by excitable skaters, the space officially opened in June 2021. Because the park is owned by the state rather than the city, Under the K-Bridge was subject to slightly different Covid regulations around gatherings. The Alliance's rollout of live events was incremental, beginning with community programming like Reggae Under the Bridge and House of Yes's Summer of Love. The Alliance partnered with Bowery Presents—which operates venues like Brooklyn Steel and Webster Hall, and worked with NBPA to program concerts at McCarren Park Pool a decade prior—in 2024. Last year, Bowery presented nine shows at the K-Bridge; this year it has 15 planned. 'This is obviously a completely raw space that isn't on everyone's radar at this point,' says Glancy. 'The first few shows we've had [this season], we've had industry out and they're just losing their minds about how cool it is. So I think over time, more and more artists will hear about it.' Hosting concerts Under the K-Bridge isn't without issue, however. There are no services—porta-potties must be brought in and there's nothing resembling the back-of-house infrastructure of an established venue. That austere atmosphere might lend itself more to an electronic DJ who has fewer crew on the road and requires less backline, or a punk band more attuned to the rough-hewn aesthetic of the place. 'It's also a public park with no public funding. Every dollar that is used to maintain the park… whether it's seating or horticultural features, we have to raise,' Denny Horowitz says. 'Part of the funding model was to be able to have events there that could earn enough revenue to actually pay to support the park.' Which isn't to say Under the K-Bridge has been an unprofitable venture. Glancy characterized Bowery's 2024 series on site as 'absolutely positive' while 2025 'looks good'—even for a business with tight margins. However, given the level of build required for each show, Under the K-Bridge is best fit for artists who can command higher ticket prices. Tickets to Turnstile's June 5 show are around $110 as of writing; Jamie xx, who will perform over two nights in early August, commands up to $153 for VIP admission. The North Brooklyn Parks Alliance has been host to about two dozen shows each outdoor season since 2021 and has no plans to slow down. They're working toward becoming a zero-waste event space and also plan to continue working with community organizers on free events. 'We steered away from creating this identity for the space, because it has organically achieved this reputation for attracting folks from all over the city,' Denny Horowitz says. 'The bridge itself is so mesmerizing. It has the light show from above, you have these columns overhead. That is something that isn't a visual and physical presence in any other space.'

Hailey Bieber poses with one of Hollywood's biggest lotharios... after Justin Bieber got close to SZA onstage
Justin Bieber may have recently hit headlines for his affectionate display with singer SZA, but his wife Hailey Bieber doesn't seem worried. In fact, the billion-dollar beauty mogul had some fun of her own on Thursday evening, as she posed up with one of Hollywood's biggest Lotharios: John Mayer. Mayer is a notorious ladies man who has dated a who's who of pinup women including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Simpson, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Aniston and Katy Perry, to name a few. He has also been rumored to be dating Kiernan Shipka, although neither has confirmed a relationship. John and Hailey could have been mistaken for a power couple as he smiled while ruggedly handsome in grunge rock wear and she was sexy in a strapless black mini dress with pumps and sunglasses. The event was the Audemars Piguet's special evening with Vogue to celebrate 150th Anniversary in Los Angeles. Earlier she was seen dining at Alba. Meanwhile, there have been rampant rumors that Hailey and Justin have been experiencing marital challenges, even though both have denied it. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Mayer is a notorious ladies man who has dated a who's who of pinup women The event was the Audemars Piguet's special evening with Vogue to celebrate 150th Anniversary in Los Angeles This sighting comes after Bieber was frisky with two hot rappers: Sza and Sexyy Red. While Hailey told Vogue that she is doing well with Justin, there are still red flags everywhere as the Sorry singer continues to make questionable moves. He also admitted that during a fight with Hailey, he told her she would never land the cover of Vogue - which she just did. That made Hailey fans turn against Justin. Meanwhile, Hailey just earned boss status on Wednesday when she announced she is selling her skincare line Rhode in a massive $1 billion deal. The model, 28 - who launched the company nearly three years earlier in June 2022 - shared her brand is being acquired by E.l.f. Cosmetics. But the mom-of-one will still serve as founder of the brand as well as Chief Creative Officer and Head of Innovation. Hailey stepped out solo for the evening as her husband Justin did not appear to be in attendance, though he acknowledged her achievement in an Instagram post, which he did not caption after coming under fire for his post following her Vogue shoot. Hailey put on a leggy display in a strapless, black minidress that clung to her frame and contained a hem that stopped inches above her knees. She stepped out of a sleek, black van upon arriving to the eatery while also sporting a pair of black heels and fashionable shades. Her locks were parted in the middle, and effortlessly flowed down past her shoulders in light waves. Before her big night out, the media personality also had a more laid-back approach to the big news. In a short video shared to TikTok, Hailey showed herself rocking a face mask, eating sushi and listening to Britney Spears ' 2001 hit I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman in her bedroom. 'And I'm just in my room like this..,' captioned Hailey, who boasts 15.4million followers on the social media outlet. Though Hailey stepped out solo, her husband Justin helped celebrate his wife's business deal by reposting the announcement to his main Instagram page. The Peaches hitmaker - who recently came under fire for his comments about her Vogue achievement - additionally uploaded a separate carousel of images which showed the couple cozying up together. Hailey was pictured flashing a big smile on her face as she leaned into her husband who placed his hands on her chest and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek. The performer opted to not add a caption to the posts shortly after garnering backlash for his comments over Hailey's recent Vogue cover in a shocking tirade. He was on the receiving end of substantial backlash after revealing he cruelly told Hailey that she would never grace the cover of Vogue during a heated argument. On the same day his wife achieved her dream, the pop star divided the internet over his Instagram post congratulating her on the feat. The Sorry hitmaker's sense of humor did not land with his or Hailey's fans as he divulged why her Vogue cover was a full circle moment for them as couple. 'Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight, I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue, Yikes I know, so mean, For some reason because I felt so disrespected I thought I gotta get even,' he explained. Justin continued: 'Think as we mature we realize that we're not helping anything by getting even, we're honestly just prolonging what we really want which is intimacy and connection.' He concluded his post by writing a message directly to Hailey, which read: 'So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn't get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken.' Many saw his caption as a backhanded compliment and something 'so unnecessary' to share with his more than 294 million Instagram followers. Justin has since taken down the original caption and instead replaced it with a shrugging emoji. In April, it was revealed that Hailey was contemplating the sale of Rhode after hiring both J.P. Morgan and global investment bank Moelis to aid her in finding potential deal options. She previously opened up about her company and told PopSugar last year, 'I still have some fears and hesitations of "I hope this or that doesn't happen." I'm opening up this part of my world to everybody. Rhode is coming straight from my mind to their hands.' The beauty added: 'I'm the majority owner of this brand, I'm the one who put the most money into this brand, so my biggest hope is that people love it for what it is and for the quality of the product.' Another milestone that Rhode has reached is that products will soon hit shelves at Sephora stores beginning in Fall 2025. Fans have since told Hailey to leave her husband Justin following the $1billion deal on social media. One commented, 'Just a casual Hailey Bieber observer but she needs to take that $1B money and run from that man,' and another typed, 'HAILEY GET THAT DIVORCE NOW BEFORE JUSTIN STEALS THAT MONEY.' Following her Vogue interview, reporter Alessandra Codinha shared that Justin emailed her a sweet note about his wife of seven years. 'I've done a lot of dumb things in my life,' he wrote to the journalist by email, 'but the smartest thing I've ever done was marry Hailey'. The Canadian artist also shared he loves family life with the beauty, adding: 'I'm walking in the days I always dreamed of.' The Vogue writer also revealed that they both want more children, with Hailey planning to have at least one more, though she will take it 'a kid at a time'. Hailey also noted that Justin sees her as a 'superhero' after welcoming their child, adding: 'At least that was the case for me.' Hailey gushed that welcoming their first child together their baby made their marriage even stronger. 'It's been my biggest teacher so far,' she said, 'the biggest teacher in my relationship. You see your partner so differently.' Praising Justin as an 'amazing dad,' she added: 'I think you empathize with your parents a lot more. There's so much perspective that comes with it.' Justin also emailed the writer this note in support of his wife: 'She's in the spotlight, and has the attention because of her effortless knack for style, business, art, and fashion. And the way she makes being a mom and wife look easy.'
