On January 21, Justin Bieber sparked rumors of trouble in his marriage to Hailey Bieber when he suddenly unfollowed her on Instagram. Fans quickly jumped to conclusions, speculating that it marked the end of their relationship. However, Justin swiftly addressed the situation, explaining that his account had been hacked. According to him, the hacker went so far as to unfollow Hailey, but not much else. He added, “S— is getting suss out here,” in an attempt to clear up the confusion.
Despite his explanation, some fans were skeptical. They pointed out that Justin has a history of following and unfollowing people and has previously used hacking claims to explain such behavior. Many questioned why a hacker would target only one specific action—unfollowing Hailey—and nothing else on his account.
An insider, speaking to People, assured fans that Justin and Hailey’s relationship is in a good place, despite the rumors. The couple has been described as “super focused” on their marriage and supportive of each other’s pursuits. Justin’s recent return to music has especially made Hailey happy, with the insider noting how much she adores his creative side. They emphasized that the pair is very much in love and committed to each other, dismissing the constant separation rumors.
The Biebers’ marriage has faced ongoing scrutiny, partly due to Justin’s past relationship with Selena Gomez. Despite this, Justin and Hailey have remained strong, welcoming their first child, Jack Blues Bieber, and showing public affection for their growing family. The couple’s focus on their relationship and family seems to have silenced much of the speculation, putting an end to the drama surrounding their past.
