As Justin and Hailey Bieber put together to welcome their first baby, the media hypothesis over the state of their six-year marriage stays simply as intense as ever.
In a candid interview with W Journal, Hailey Bieber hits again at a number of the scrutiny, telling the publication that whereas she’s accustomed to residing her life within the highlight, coping with the rumor mill hasn’t gotten simpler with time.
“People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced,’” the mannequin stated. “It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy.”
She went on to notice, “I used to try to act like it hurts less and less. I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less.”
Hailey Bieber, who’s the daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and designer Kennya Baldwin, was first romantically linked with Justin Bieber in 2015.
Although the pair’s preliminary relationship fizzled rapidly, they rekindled their romance in June 2018 ― simply weeks after Hailey Bieber walked arm-in-arm with Shawn Mendes on the Met Gala, and Justin Bieber and longtime girlfriend Selena Gomez seemingly parted methods. That fall, the 2 had been married.
Showing on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in 2022, Hailey Bieber stated she continued to be accused on-line of coming between Justin Bieber and Gomez, and clarified that her husband was very a lot single once they bought collectively.
“I understand how it looked from the outside and there’s a lot of perception there, but that was a situation where I know for a fact that it was the right thing for them to close that door,” she stated, referring to Justin Bieber’s ties to Gomez. “They were not in a relationship at that time but of course, there’s a very long history there.”
She doubled down on that stance in an interview on Bloomberg’s “The Circuit” final yr.
“I don’t think that this is about me, Hailey Bieber, and Selena Gomez,” she defined. “This is not about this pitting between two women ― it’s about the vile, disgusting hatred that can come from completely made-up and twisted, and perpetuated narratives that can be really dangerous.”
Elsewhere within the W Journal chat, Hailey Bieber acknowledged that she and her household are “not super close” lately, as she’s made efforts to reside a “very independent” life. At current, she’s taking full benefit of the time she and Justin Bieber have remaining as a pair with out kids.
“I’m trying to soak in these days of it being Justin and me,” she stated, “just the two of us.”
