In Touch reported on April 29th that Justin Bieber recently posted selfies to his fans and followers on social media—but is Justin sending out a cry for help?
Two of his selfies showed Justin crying, and shockingly, his wife, Hailey, responded by commenting that Justin was “a pretty crier.” Is that really what Justin needs to hear right now? Is he doing okay? Should we be concerned?
Why Justin Bieber Was Crying in Social Media Images
According to In Touch, Justin wanted to give people “a look inside the highs and lows of his life” with the “new series of photos” he posted to his Instagram on April 28th.
Justin shared a “carousel of images” that included him on stage and “vulnerable photos of him crying.” Justin is now 30 years old, and In Touch claimed that he was letting “the photos do the talking” without adding captions for “extra context” about what he meant or how he was really feeling inside.
While Justin didn’t explain the meaning behind his crying selfie, that didn’t stop Hailey from adding her opinion. She commented that her husband is a “pretty crier,” along with a crying emoji.
Fans responded to the crying selfie by filling Justin’s Instagram with “concerned messages.” In Touch reported that many commenters wanted to know why Justin was crying, and others wanted to let Justin know that “they hoped he was OK.”
Some people shared their prayers for Justin, while one person hinted that maybe we didn’t need to be too worried. This user pointed out that his own wife, Hailey, didn’t seem too stressed by writing, “Everybody worries because he is crying and his girl commented, ‘a pretty crier.’”
Justin Appears on Hailey’s Instagram
After the crying selfies Justin posted raised a lot of concern online, Hailey took it one step further to reassure fans that her husband was doing okay. A couple of days later, she took to her Instagram Stories and posted a picture of Justin.
The Instagram Story was screenshotted and shared by The Hindustan Times. In the photo, it looked like Justin and Hailey went out swimming. Justin didn’t seem to be crying or in a bad mood, which eased some people’s worries about his mental health. But what about his physical health?
Justin’s Coachella Appearance
Despite Hailey’s social media reassurance, not everyone was convinced that Justin was completely fine. Reportedly, he has been experiencing health problems lately, and fans were both surprised and concerned when he suddenly appeared at Coachella on April 14th.
Justin did an unscheduled performance with Tems, and he thrilled the audience. However, an inside source set the record straight with In Touch, and the outlet claimed that it “sparked fears” about Justin’s continued health and well-being.
The source claimed that Justin still looked “fragile,” and shockingly, they alleged that he seemed to be “checked out all weekend.” The source added that Justin “finally got his health back,” but allegedly, inside sources close to Justin are now “worried” that he may be “spiraling again.”
Another In Touch report published on April 24th claimed that Justin acted strangely at Coachella. He appeared to be concealing his “thin frame” in “oversized cargo pants” and a “baseball cap pulled down low.”
A witness told In Touch that Justin “looked like he just stepped out of the audience,” but they thought it was a “good sign” that Justin “felt comfortable enough to get on stage.” Justin had to cancel his Justice tour in June 2022 after he was diagnosed with a viral infection that caused “partial face paralysis.”
Justin Bieber’s Health Problems
The condition Justin was diagnosed with in 2022 was Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS), and it made his right side of the face paralyzed. However, there is more to Justin’s health issues than this.
In January 2020, Justin came out and told everyone that he had Lyme disease. The BBC reported on an Instagram post she shared at the time. In it, Justin said that he’d had “a rough couple [of] years.”
He continued to say that he’d received comments from people saying that he looked like he was on substance. However, this was not the case. Justin informed people that the change in his looks had to do with Lyme disease.
He said that he was also diagnosed with a serious case of chronic mononucleosis, which negatively impacted many different aspects of his life, including his “skin, brain function, energy, and overall health.”
Justin then reassured everyone that he was getting the right treatment. However, despite his best efforts to get healthy, many are still worried about him.
Is Justin Struggling with Addiction?
It isn’t just Justin’s physical health that has fans worried. Due to the crying selfies he recently posted, many have been wondering about the state of his mental health.
Justin has previously been open about many of his struggles, including his battle with addiction. He struggled with substance use, as well as drinking too many adult beverages.
In 2014, Justin even got in trouble with the law because of his addiction problems. CNN Entertainment reported on what happened back then. Justin was arrested by the police in Miami in January of that year. He was accused of driving inebriated, as well as resisting arrest and driving without a valid license.
Justin was only 19 years old at the time. He was later released on a $2,500 bond, according to CNN. But his struggles with substances weren’t over.
On February 3rd, 2020, Justin released a 14-minute video on YouTube titled The Dark Season – Justin Bieber: Seasons. In it, he opened up a little more about his relationship with substances. He explained how at first, he was mostly consuming some lighter stuff, but eventually, he spiraled out of control.
He decided to get sober once he realized that he felt like he was losing his life. Justin said that things got very serious and scary. He said that his security team would have to come into his room at night to check in on him. They needed to make sure that he still had a pulse.
On top of his addiction issues, Justin also struggled with other things, such as being in the limelight, depression, anxiety, and ADHD.
Trouble in Paradise for Justin and Hailey’s Marriage
While some people love Hailey and Justin together, others are not convinced about the strength of their relationship. Their marriage has always been under public scrutiny, and recently, someone close to the couple made it seem like there might be trouble in paradise.
Hailey’s dad, Stephen Baldwin, posted a shocking Instagram Story in February that got everyone wondering if Justin and Hailey’s marriage was going through a rough patch.
While rumors about “troubles” in Justin and Hailey’s marriage have always been on the back burner, Stephen’s message only seems to have made it worse.
He wrote that people who “think of Justin & Hailey” should “take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection, and to draw close to the Lord.” Then Stephen dropped the bombshell that “folks in high visibility positions” often face “special challenges.”
Many people took Stephen’s message to mean that Hailey and Justin were having marital problems. Why else would he want people to pray for the couple?
In Touch also reported that many people on sites like TikTok began throwing shade at Justin and Hailey and posting blind items that they were on the verge of a breakup.
Why Hailey Clapped Back to Online Rumors
27-year-old Hailey was forced to respond to the online rumors, and In Touch wrote that she “clapped back” on March 5th.
Hailey wrote an “FYI” to her fans and followers that the stories and “constant ‘blind items’” she was seeing on TikTok were incorrect “100% of the time.”
Hailey added that the rumors were “made out of thin air” and “come from the land of delusion.” She threw shade back at the haters, saying, “I know it may be fun feeding into these stories,” but she claimed, “they’re always false… sorry to spoil it.”
But shockingly, In Touch alleged that they’d received an “exclusive” from an inside source that Justin and Hailey’s relationship “isn’t in the best place right now.”
Still, the source claimed that the thought of splitting up with Justin isn’t on Hailey’s “radar.” The source added that her marriage is Hailey’s “priority,” and her focus is also on “keeping [Justin] healthy.”

According to the source, Justin’s surprise appearance at Coachella was a “huge accomplishment” in his career after a long time away from touring. The source added that “everyone is rooting for Justin,” but shockingly, they also repeated that he’s still “very fragile.”
Are Hailey and Justin Actually Happy Together?
Another source spoke to People magazine in April of this year. This source seemingly contradicted the information In Touch got from their insider. According to People’s source, Hailey and Justin were very happy together.
The source claimed: “There’s no divorce and no truth to that whatsoever.”
This was more in line with what Hailey had to say about the rumors and blind items claiming that their relationship was in trouble.
Hailey and Justin Are Expecting a Baby
Despite all the rumors, it seems that Justin and Hailey may actually be doing better than ever. On May 9th, 2024, Hailey shared some big news with her Instagram followers. It turns out that she’s pregnant with her and Justin’s first baby.
Hailey chose to share this news through a video from her and Justin’s vow renewal. The two of them renewed their vows recently when they traveled to Hawaii together.
Hailey also posted several photos from the day, in which she showed off her baby bump. In one of the photos, Justin could be seen standing behind Hailey. He was touching her tummy in an affectionate way.
In another photo, Justin and Hailey shared a lovely kiss. There were also two more photos, which showed Justin taking photos of Hailey, who was posing in a white dress and showing off her baby bump yet again.
It seems that Hailey is pretty far along with the pregnancy. Her representative spoke to PEOPLE, and they were able to confirm that she is over six months pregnant at this stage. So, she and Justin will be welcoming their new baby pretty soon.
Why Justin and Hailey Are Having a Baby Now
Justin and Hailey have been married for almost 6 years at this point. They tied the knot in September 2018. For a long time, fans questioned whether or not the couple would have any children together. Now, we finally have the answer. But why did they decide to expand their family now?
It seems that Hailey was finally ready for a pregnancy. In 2020, Justin spoke to Ellen Degeneres on her show, and he admitted that he was ready to start having children. However, the same thing could not be said for Hailey at the time.
Justin claimed that he was ready to expand their family, but Hailey wanted to wait a little longer. She had her own personal goals that she wanted to focus on first. She knew that if she had a baby, she would have to put them first, and it seems like she simply wasn’t ready to give up her freedom four years ago.
She does seem ready now, though. It will be interesting to see how many children she and Justin will have in the end.
Justin told Ellen that this was up to Hailey, too. When asked how many children he wanted, he said: “I am going to have as many as Hailey is wishing to push out.”
Pregnancy Announcement Criticism
After Hailey shared the pregnancy announcement on her Instagram, many in the comments congratulated her and Justin. However, not everyone was so kind. Some people made it known that they still weren’t big fans of the two of them as a couple.
One person wrote: “He just got baby trapped by his stalker rebound.”
But this wasn’t the only kind of criticism the couple faced. Justin shared a similar post on his Instagram, too. His post included even more photos. In one of them, Justin and Hailey could be seen hugging while Justin was cradling Hailey’s head.
The photos were undoubtedly very sweet, but not everyone shared the couple’s excitement. Justin’s comments were flooded with people commenting “#blockout2024.”
This hashtag is a form of online boycott that started due to some celebrities not speaking out about the Israel-Gaza conflict. People in the comments criticized Justin’s silence on the matter and said that they would have to block him.
However, Justin’s post still received many supportive messages, too. One person wrote: “Congratulations and may God continue to bless you both!”
What Kind of Parents Will Justin and Hailey Be
Now that Justin and Hailey are expecting a baby, many are wondering what these two will be like as parents. Naturally, everyone is hoping for the best, but some people are a little skeptical, too.
The couple famously had a messy, tumultuous relationship for quite some time. They were on-again-off-again pretty often until they finally tied the knot in 2018.
However, even after the two of them got married, not everyone was convinced that they were going to last. Many questioned their relationship and if it was really stable enough to survive long-term. After all, Justin was only 24 years old when they got married, while Hailey was just 21.
Despite everyone’s skepticism, the couple have continued to prove us wrong time and time again. They are still together to this day, and they just announced that they are starting a family together.
However, this doesn’t mean that they haven’t faced any problems over the last 6 years. The constant media scrutiny hasn’t been easy on the couple. They have been criticized for many different things over the years, and they’ve even faced rumors of infidelity.
On top of this, they’ve had to deal with things like Hailey’s dad asking people to pray for them. But the couple never let these things get to them too much.
Hailey and Justin have made it clear that they value honest communication. They are willing to work on things and be patient with each other, which is one of the reasons why they’re still going strong.
It’s impossible to say what kind of parents these two will be. However, if they keep up their good communication, patience, and hard work, it’s easy to see how their family could blossom.
Justin’s Difficult Childhood
Another topic that has lately been on everyone’s lips is Justin’s own childhood. As a child star, he didn’t always have the easiest time of things, and this may be one of the reasons why he later struggled so much as a young adult.
One of the things that people have been talking about lately is Justin’s relationship with Diddy. Justin was still a young child when he met the famous rapper, and lately, people have started questioning their strange relationship.
This is mostly due to the fact that Diddy is in a lot of trouble these days. There have been a lot of extremely serious accusations coming out against him. It all started in November 2023, when Diddy’s ex, Cassie, filed a lawsuit against him.
In it, she alleged that she’d been a victim of Diddy. She claimed that she suffered SA by him, among other things.
Cassie and Diddy were able to settle the lawsuit in just one day. However, this didn’t put an end to the drama surrounding Diddy. Soon, more people started coming out with their own stories about him. Now, Diddy is facing many serious allegations, including trafficking, SA, grooming, and more.
Things got particularly bad for Diddy when his houses were raided by Homeland Security on March 25, 2024. U.S. officials confirmed that the raids had to do with the trafficking allegations against Diddy. But what does this have to do with Justin?
Diddy and Justin’s Relationship
When Justin was younger, he used to spend a lot of time with Diddy. Scooter Braun and Usher first discovered Justin on YouTube when he was just a young boy. After that, Usher introduced Justin to Diddy, and that’s how the two of them got to know each other.
At the time, Justin was only 15 years old. However, Diddy is much older than him. He was already in his early 40s back then. This has led many people to question the nature of their relationship. Why was Diddy so interested in Justin? Why did he feel it was appropriate to build a friendship with the teenage boy?
Some of the things that happened between Justin and Diddy back then now seem shocking. For example, at one point, the two were supposed to spend 48 hours alone together. Justin was still a minor back then, and many have since wondered why he was allowed to spend time with this adult man without parental supervision.
Justin Attended One of Diddy’s Parties
In 2014, TMZ published a shocking report about one of Diddy’s infamous parties. They said that Justin was actually at this party, which was held in Atlanta. He was only 19 years old at the time.
This piece of news is especially concerning now, as many people have come forward to speak out about all the sinister things that would happen at Diddy’s parties. However, even back in 2014, many were concerned about Justin’s presence at the Atlanta party.
As he was only 19 years old, it seemed inappropriate that he was there. TMZ said that he didn’t actually consume any adult beverages or drink anything he wasn’t allowed to. Reportedly, he only drank water throughout the night.
However, despite these claims, not everyone believed that. 2014 was the same year that Justin got arrested in Miami for driving under the influence. How likely was it that he was able to say no to adult drinks just a couple of months later?
The TMZ report also mentioned that even if Justin wasn’t drinking, that didn’t mean that he was actually sober that night. The article implied that he might’ve tried something else – for example, a certain green substance.
Justin has since admitted to having issues with drinking in the past, as well as using said substance. So, it is entirely possible that something illegal happened that night when Justin was only 19.
Why Justin’s Mom Let Him Be Friends with Diddy
Justin’s mom’s name is Pattie Mallette. She reportedly raised Justin as a single mom. For a long time, the family struggled for money. Pattie mostly worked office jobs, and unfortunately, she didn’t earn a lot that way.
This changed after Justin was discovered on YouTube. Suddenly, Pattie’s son skyrocketed to fame, and with that came a completely new set of challenges.
Lately, some people have questioned Pattie’s decision to let Justin spend time with the likes of Diddy. While, in hindsight, it seems that this may not have been a good idea, it’s possible that at the time, Pattie didn’t know any better.

In any case, it seems that Justin and Hailey don’t have any beef with Pattie as of right now. Just recently, Hailey took to her Instagram Story to say some nice words about Pattie.
PEOPLE Magazine captured the post in which Hailey called Pattie her “beautiful Mama in law.” This was around Pattie’s birthday, and Hailey wanted to celebrate her.
She wrote: “Having another amazing Mom is all anyone could ask for.”
Justin’s Mom Can’t Wait to Be a Grandma
After Justin and Hailey announced their pregnancy to the whole world, Pattie decided to share her own thoughts on the news, too. She took to her Instagram and posted a video of herself talking about her feelings and excitement.
In the caption, Pattie wrote: “BABY BIEBER IS ON THE WAY!! I’m gonna be a GRANDMA!!”
Then, she congratulated her son and his wife. Pattie added that her heart was full and that this was an exciting new adventure.
She ended her caption by writing: “Love you so much!”
In the video, Pattie said that she’d been waiting for this day. She wanted to share her happiness with the world, and now that the news was out, she finally could. She exclaimed, “Oh my goodness!” as she talked about the fact that she was going to be a grandma.
Then, she talked directly to Justin and Hailey. She said that they were going to be the best parents ever and added that she was very excited.
Two days after posting the video, Pattie made another post on her Instagram. This was for Mother’s Day, and it was dedicated to her own mom. Pattie shared 5 different photos of her mom and wrote a lovely caption in which she told her mom that she loved her.
It seems that there is a lot of love in Justin’s family, and it’s clear that everyone is excited about baby Bieber. The baby won’t just have a grandma, though. They will also have a great-grandma who, according to Pattie’s post, is a patient and resilient woman.
What’s Next for Justin and Hailey
If Hailey is six months pregnant, this means that we can expect baby Bieber to arrive sometime in the summer. In just about three months, we could see the first photo of their child. However, there is no guarantee that we will get to see the baby immediately after it’s born.
Justin and Hailey waited six months before they announced the pregnancy. It’s possible that they will want to wait some more after their child is born, too. They seem to value their privacy, so we may have to wait for things like gender and name reveal.
However, both Justin and Hailey do post on their social media fairly often. Justin usually posts on his Instagram at least once a month. Often, he picks a day or two in the month and shares several different posts at the same time.
The last time he did this was on April 28th, which was when he also shared his crying selfies.
Hailey is also active on her Instagram. She seems to post at least once a week. The last post she shared before the pregnancy announcement was a series of photos from the Rhode Skin Headquarters.
Rhode Skin is Hailey’s skincare brand that she developed. In their Instagram bio, it says that they are vegan, cruelty-free, and dermatologist-developed.
In the photos that she shared from Rhode Skin HQ, Hailey could be seen posing with one of her products. She also posted a mirror selfie and a photo from what looked like the elevator.
Right now, Justin and Hailey seem to be thriving. Even though Justin’s crying selfies raised some concern among fans, it seems that the couple are doing well. They’re clearly excited about the new addition to their family.
Only time will tell if the two choose to share more about their life right now. They have never been too shy to speak up and talk about the things that matter to them. Just recently, Hailey shut down the many rumors going around about their marriage falling apart. So, if there are any more important or big developments, they’ll probably let us know sooner or later. For now, all we can do is just wait and see.
Congratulations Justin and Hailey on the pregnancy. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly and the baby is born strong and healthy.
