Justin Bieber says ‘it’s time to grow up’ in cryptic...

Speculation the singer and his wife of seven years were headed for divorce erupted in late 2024. “It’s time to grow up … changing is about letting go. You don’t work to mature … you let go to mature,” he wrote in a February 20 post on his Instagram story.

“The weight isn’t on me to change,” the 30-year-old music artist continued. “The weight is on God. So I give all my insecurities and my fears to him this morning because I know he gladly takes it. “Asking Jesus to genuinely help me with simply the next step today,” Bieber finished.

The “Baby” singer’s words were broken up and written like a poem against a white background with a red heart on the side. In late 2024, speculation surrounding Justin and his wife Hailey stirred on TikTok with many fans arguing the married couple of seven years, who welcomed their first baby together in August, were no longer “getting along.”.

Even podcast host Sloan Hooks chimed in, claiming he’d received an anonymous tip that alleged Justin and Hailey weren’t in a good place. “I just received a tip about Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey, and it doesn’t look like things are going too well,” the TikTok commentator said in a December video.

Hooks went on to point out the couple’s social media activity at the time, including Justin sharing the song “B.E.D” by Jacquees and Hailey posting SZA’s lyric, “But if it’s f*** me, then f*** you,” soon after. On December 30, Hailey subtly hit back at the ongoing rumors about her marriage with a viral clip on her Instagram story. Her caption read: “Me to all of you on the internet.” The video featured TikTok user (@eyegotthyme) jokingly repeating the line: “You’re not well, and it’s OK.”.

A few weeks later, eagle-eyed fans noticed Justin’s Instagram account was no longer following Hailey, prompting immediate concern about the couple once again. For Valentine’s Day, Justin and Hailey each posted a carousel of images and videos of them giggling and smiling together, seemingly confirming they were still very much so together.

“HAPPY VALENTINES DAY FROM THE BIEBERS,” Justin wrote, while Hailey captioned her slides with heart envelope emojis. The duo has been spotted out and about in New York City in last few weeks, leaving restaurants and attending a Knicks-Lakers game. On February 18, Justin was seen attending Hailey’s skincare pop-up store opening in Los Angeles.
