Justin Bieber shares rare pic with Hailey amid grandfather's death and divorce rumor
Justin Bieber gave fans a peek into his private life when he posted a rare, intimate photo with wife Hailey Bieber on Instagram. The close-up selfie captures Hailey leaning in lovingly against Justin's shoulder, with a tearful smile emoji in the caption. The post comes amid an emotional time for the singer, who had just bid farewell to his grandfather, Bruce Dale, while dealing with ongoing divorce rumors.
Bruce Dale, Justin's grandmother's father, peacefully died at age 80 on Thursday at Rotary Hospice Stratford Perth. Justin paid his grandfather tribute on Instagram with an affectionate memory post featuring a throwback selfie of him in his teens alongside Bruce. Writing a poignant caption, he mentioned their memorable times together: "Papa, I always took all ur money lol.". I recall u specifically saying to me, gramma gave u 20 dollars allowance for the WEEK! I would always talk you into spending on snacks at the hockey game on Friday nights. Reluctantly you always gave it to me. Corn nuts, skittles, gum balls, chuck a puck, slush puppies."
Justin's tribute went on, combining humor with sorrow: "I can't wait to see u again soon in heaven.". Until then I know ur looking down probly still heckling Beatty or Fagon for missing that cross check call in the corner there lmfao. I will miss u. I will ache and I'll sit and let myself remember all of the wonderful times we've had.' Bruce, a longtime supporter of Justin's career, appeared in his 2011 documentary 'Never Say Never' and spoke proudly of his grandson in a 2018 interview. The obituary listed Justin, Hailey, and their son Jack-Blues among Bruce's surviving family members, alongside Bruce's wife Diane and other relatives. Amid his sorrow, Justin responded to circulating rumors of marital conflict on Instagram Stories. He spoke of public judgment, saying, "They treat me like a out here, but I remember that I am flawed and God forgave me." He included a musing comment: "It helps me to stop feeling better than those who are mean and hurtful because when I'm really honest, I can be mean and hurtful too."
When it comes to his wedlock, Justin quashed speculation of divorce in equal measures of confidence and wit:
"Honestly if I was u, it would be hard not to be jealous of me and Hailey going brazzzzyy. It's really up for us and that's understandable why people can't stand it. I don't blame 'em."
He equated their union with the impossible-to-attain "Joneses," laughingly conceding society's fascination with their relationship.
The intimate photo and off-guard posts highlight Justin's attempts to navigate private sorrow and public criticism, reaffirming his devotion to Hailey while paying tribute to his grandfather's memory. As the public rallies around the couple, Justin's mix of vulnerability and strength points to the intricacies of life in the limelight.
