Justin Bieber is reportedly devastated over his wife Hailey’s mental health struggles, following months of backlash and death threats from fans of his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez. The model and TV personality had faced intense scrutiny for allegedly throwing shade at Selena on Instagram when she and Kendall Jenner posted a since-deleted video on TikTok lip-syncing the lyric, ‘And I’m not saying she deserved it, but I’m saying God’s timing is always right.’
Hailey’s post led to rumours of a feud with Selena, which escalated to the point that the singer had to urge her fans to back off the Hailey hate, as they were even posting death threats. ‘Hailey Bieber reached out to me and let me know that she has been receiving death threats and such hateful negativity,’ Selena wrote on her Instagram Story. ‘This isn’t what I stand for. No one should have to experience hate or bullying. I’ve always advocated for kindness and want this all to stop.’
As a result of the backlash, 26-year-old Hailey recently opened up about going through a ‘hard time’ with all the negativity online. In an emotional Instagram post, she admitted that 2023 had been the most challenging year of her adult life. ‘But truthfully, since 2023 started, I have had some of the saddest, hardest moments I’ve ever had in my adult life, and my mind and emotions have been fragile, to say the least,’ she shared.
Justin Bieber’s Reaction:
According to an insider, it breaks Justin’s heart to see his wife struggling emotionally the way she has been these past few months. ‘He loves his wife more than anything and knows she has a heart of gold,’ the source added. As Hailey continues to face mental health struggles, she urged others to keep showing up for one another, even when it’s hard.
Let’s just be there for people… let’s keep showing up for each other even when it’s hard. We’re better together,’ she concluded.
The ongoing feud between Selena and Hailey has affected the latter’s mental health, leading to support from her husband, Justin, and a call for kindness and support from the model.
Selena Gomez also urged her fans to stop sending death threats to Hailey Bieber amid their ongoing disagreement.
