Justin Bieber has finally spoken out amid swirling rumors that he and his wife, Hailey Bieber, are heading for divorce.
Social media has been buzzing with speculation that the couple, who tied the knot in September 2018 and welcomed their first child in August 2024, may be going their separate ways.
While neither Justin nor Hailey had previously addressed the rumors directly, the “Peaches” singer took to Instagram on Friday to seemingly break his silence and push back against the negativity surrounding his personal life and marriage.
In a series of emotional posts, Justin took a reflective approach, not only addressing the rumors but also sharing a message about faith, forgiveness, and dealing with public scrutiny.
He appeared to lash out at those spreading falsehoods about his marriage, suggesting that their actions stem from jealousy.
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.”
His words seemed to indicate that he was choosing to focus on grace rather than resentment, even as rumors continued to swirl around him.
Further elaborating on how he deals with criticism, Justin expressed that while he often feels wronged by the harsh judgment of the public, 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. Because when I am really honest, I can be mean and hurtful too.”
His candid words hinted at a personal struggle to rise above negativity while acknowledging that no one is perfect.
Justin also reflected on the hypocrisy of internet culture, where people judge others harshly while ignoring their own shortcomings.
“My instinct is to be like, damn, I would not gossip, spread lies about someone on the internet, but there is other stuff I do I’m not proud of that God is gracious with. Hurt people hurt people.”
His words suggest an understanding that those who spread falsehoods are often projecting their own pain, and rather than retaliate, he chooses to lean on his faith and self-awareness.
Finally, in a more direct response to the divorce rumors, Justin seemingly dismissed the speculation, attributing it to envy.
“Honestly, if I was you, it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going so brazzzzzy. It is really up for us and that is understandable why people cannot stand it. I don’t blame them.”
With this statement, the singer made it clear that he and Hailey remain strong, despite the public scrutiny.
While he did not explicitly deny the rumors, his words conveyed confidence in his relationship, implying that no external noise could shake their foundation.
