Hailey Bieber reportedly wants a break from Justin amid their latest bout of relationship issues… But not because she wants to divorce him!
The married couple are seemingly in the midst of another low point in their relationship amid the Baby singer’s recent behavior. As we’ve been following, Justin recently popped off on paparazzi in a heated exchange. The 31-year-old warned them he’s “not to be f**ked with” — especially now as a husband and father. And he followed the outburst up with a series of bizarre Instagram posts on Father’s Day doubling down on the sentiment.
The pop star also shared a ton of text screenshots detailing a falling out between him and a friend over his anger issues. So paired with all his alleged money issues and previous posts — including several which have stirred up drug use speculation — Hailey is reportedly at a breaking point. On Friday, an insider told RadarOnline:
“Hailey has shown the patience of a saint, putting up with Justin and his erratic behavior for many months now. She’s never wavered in her support, and there’s no question she still loves him dearly. Despite his flaws, this is the man she committed to spending the rest of her life with.”
However, she’s “only capable of sitting back and ignoring so much, and at this point her elasticity levels have been stretched to where she’s literally about to snap.”

We can’t imagine how challenging it is to try and be there for Justin while also prioritizing raising their son Jack Blues. But despite everything, the couple are reportedly desperate to make their relationship work… And that might require some time apart:
“Hailey’s trying to hold it together, but she’s emotionally exhausted. She’s begged Justin to take some space. She’s very clear that it’s not a step toward divorce; she wants to do this so they both can get a chance to breathe and regroup.”
So if not for divorce, it sounds like this “space” could be a last-ditch effort at saving their relationship.
The insider noted J.B. is “not in a great place physically or mentally” at this point in time:
“You can just see by how much weight he’s lost, and he seems constantly overwhelmed by life.”
And Hailey is reportedly walking a tightrope of gently encouraging him to get help:
“She’s not suggesting rehab, just somewhere he can focus on wellness and self-care. Justin doesn’t like being told what to do, especially when he’s already feeling vulnerable, but Hailey has made it clear that without some kind of break, she doesn’t know how much longer they can keep going.”
The outlook doesn’t seem greta in the wake of Hailey’s latest outing in New York, where she ditched her wedding ring…
The insider added:
“It’s unbearable watching him suffer like this. Anyone can tell he needs help, and all his shows of bravado are coming across as delusional and increasingly sad.”
What a difficult situation for the celebrity couple. Hailey has really stood behind him so unwaveringly. But that can’t be sustainable at the rate he’s going… Let’s just make sure to take this all with a grain of salt.
