In a recent statement, Hailey Bieber addresses swirling rumors surrounding her marriage to Justin Bieber, firmly putting to rest divorce speculations that arose after Justin's performance with SZA was met with backlash. Hailey stands by both artists and opens up about the hurdles of postpartum life and the weight of online negativity.
Hailey Bieber has responded to speculation about her marriage to Justin Bieber after fans criticized Justin's interaction with SZA during a performance, with some claiming he "humiliated" his wife. Despite rumors and social media commentary, Hailey has publicly shown support for both Justin and SZA, dismissing divorce claims and emphasizing the reality of her family life. This comes amid reports of concern from Hailey's friends, like Kendall and Kylie Jenner, who allegedly considered staging an intervention for Justin.

Rumors about Hailey and Justin Bieber's marriage have been circulating, prompting Hailey to address them directly. She spoke about her experiences with postpartum depression and dealing with the constant speculation.

“Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I’ve ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult,” she told the fashion magazine. “And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, ‘They’re getting divorced’ and ‘They’re this’ and ‘They’re not happy,’ it is such a mindf—-. I cannot even begin to explain it. It’s a crazy life to live.”

Despite Hailey's statements, speculation persisted, particularly after Justin Bieber made a surprise appearance at SZA’s show at SoFi Stadium. He performed a duet to their 2022 single “Snooze.” Social media users criticized both SZA and Justin, with some accusing Justin of "humiliating" Hailey.

“Justin humiliates hailey like 40 times this month but its sza fault apparently,” one fan wrote.

Another fan commented on SZA liking a video critical of the Biebers’ relationship.

“Sza YOU WEIRD AF.”

Hailey Bieber responded by sharing a video of SZA and Justin Bieber, showing him kissing SZA’s hand and dancing with her. She captioned the Instagram Stories clip with emojis and wrote, “My 2 favorite artists” on another video of the performance.

Hailey addressed the rumors directly, stating they are not real.

“It’s not real,” Hailey recently told Vogue about the rumors. “And that’s the thing: I have a real life. My real life is that I get to wake up to my beautiful family and my son and my friends and I have people that know me and love me and I love them.”

Reports also surfaced that Hailey Bieber’s friends, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, were worried about her marriage and Justin Bieber. Sources claimed they considered an intervention.

“Kendall’s been desperately trying to persuade Hailey to get a group of their close friends together to do an intervention for Justin,” sources said. “She wants to help their marriage.”

Hailey Bieber is choosing to disregard the rumors and negativity. She explained that she has learned from her husband's experiences in the public eye.

“I’ve been in a position where I’ve tried to tell my side of a story or correct a narrative or tell the truth of a lie and then they go, Well, she’s lying. Imagine how trapping that feels,” she also told Vogue, adding that this is something she’d learned from her husband. “He’s been doing this literally since he was a child and he has had to face the most scrutiny of any person that I know. He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win. There is no winning.’ ”
