Justin Bieber has had a tough time lately, and it’s starting to show. The 30-year-old pop star was seen looking visibly strained as he stepped out with wife Hailey Bieber in Beverly Hills. The couple, who welcomed their first child, Jack, in August, drove off in their Cybertruck after leaving an office building. But it wasn’t the Tesla ride that had fans talking—it was Justin’s somber expression.
Dressed casually in a green sweater and Yankees cap, Justin appeared deep in thought, possibly still processing the recent tragic death of his former chart rival Liam Payne. The One Direction star passed away at 31, shocking the music world. Justin shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, posting a video of flowers and messages honoring Liam, along with the caption, “Rest easy, Liam.”
Fans are also wondering how Justin is coping with the Diddy scandal. Sean “Diddy” Combs, who was once a mentor to Bieber, has been charged with serious crimes, including sex trafficking. The allegations have shaken Justin, who collaborated with Diddy less than a year ago. Sources close to Justin say he’s been “completely thrown” by the accusations and is struggling to make sense of it all. According to insiders, the ‘Honest’ singer has chosen to shut down emotionally rather than confront the disturbing news.
But while Justin’s mental state seems fragile, Hailey is keeping things moving. The 27-year-old model looked stylish in a black leather jacket and sunglasses as she took the wheel. She’s been staying busy, recently sharing her nighttime skincare routine on her Rhode Instagram page, promoting her line of beauty products. Hailey’s business endeavors seem to be a welcome distraction for her, but fans are left wondering how her husband is really holding up.
The Canadian popstar’s tribute to Liam Payne was especially poignant, given their past. The two had a brief feud back in the day when a drunken comment by Liam, joking about not having been arrested like Justin, sparked some tension. But the two eventually squashed the beef, with Liam revealing in a 2022 podcast that they connected on a deeper level. The ‘Strip That Down’ singer expressed how both of them shared the pressures of early fame, but while Justin had to face it alone as a solo artist, Liam had the support of his One Direction bandmates. For Justin, it’s a harsh reminder of the darker side of fame—something he’s been vocal about struggling with over the years.
Despite the heavy emotional toll, Justin recently made a rare public appearance, performing alongside Don Toliver at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Hailey, ever the supportive wife, was there with friends Lori Harvey and Justine Skye, sharing clips from the show on social media. The pair performed their hit “Private Landing,” but it was clear that Justin’s heart wasn’t fully in it.
