In the ever-volatile world of celebrity news, the latest drama involving Justin and Hailey Bieber has once again captured the attention of fans and media alike. Here’s what’s been unfolding:
### The Instagram Unfollowing Incident
On January 21, 2025, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Justin Bieber had seemingly unfollowed his wife, Hailey Bieber, on Instagram. This sudden move sparked a flurry of breakup rumors, given the couple's history of facing speculation about their marriage. However, Justin was quick to address the situation. In a now-deleted Instagram Story, he claimed that his account had been hacked and that "someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife. Sh*t is getting suss out here."[1][4][5].
Justin promptly re-followed Hailey on Instagram, and the couple has since shared several photos from their vacation in Aspen, Colorado, to quell any doubts about their relationship.
### Hailey's Response
Hailey Bieber also weighed in on the drama, using her signature style to set the record straight. In an Instagram Story posted on January 23, she shared a mirror selfie featuring her $1.5 million upgraded engagement ring and a tote bag embroidered with "Mrs. Bieber." This subtle yet powerful statement was her way of reaffirming their marriage and dismissing the breakup rumors[5].
### Health and Family
Over the past couple of years, Justin Bieber has been focusing on his health and family rather than his music career. In 2022, he canceled the remainder of his “Justice” world tour due to his battle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which caused partial facial paralysis. Since then, he has been prioritizing his recovery, his marriage to Hailey, and their new baby boy, Jack, born last August[3].
### Justin's 2025 Comeback
Despite the health setbacks, Justin Bieber is gearing up for a musical comeback in 2025. This decision is partly driven by financial obligations, including debts to tour producer AEG from his canceled tour and the expenses of his lavish lifestyle. Bieber has reportedly sold his music catalog for $200 million in 2023, but big expenses, such as private jets, luxury homes, and raising a child, continue to mount[3].
Sources indicate that Bieber is working on new music, possibly collaborating with big names in the industry, and there is speculation about an upcoming tour to help settle his financial commitments.
### Hailey's Success
While Justin navigates his comeback, Hailey Bieber has been thriving in her own career. Her skincare brand, Rhode, has seen significant success, with her holiday-themed "Peppermint Glaze" lipstick generating $15 million in its first week and the brand raking in $40 million in November alone. Hailey's business acumen has made her a financial powerhouse, but Justin seems determined to maintain his own career momentum rather than relying on his wife's success[3].
As the Biebers continue to face and address breakup rumors, it's clear that their relationship remains strong, and Justin is ready to reclaim his spot in the music industry. Fans can expect new music and possibly a tour from Justin Bieber in the coming year, marking a significant return for the artist.
