Hailey Bieber shares a mysterious message about forgiveness while Justin celebrates Valentine’s Day with affectionate photos.

On Valentine’s Day, Hailey Bieber and her husband Justin Bieber had differing ways of celebrating their relationship, which has been under public scrutiny lately.

While Justin Bieber, aged 30, shared multiple affectionate photos of the couple on his Instagram account, 28-year-old model Hailey took a more enigmatic approach by posting a message that hinted at the theme of forgiveness.

On her Instagram Stories, Hailey posted a meme featuring a cartoon cat stomping along with a clearly irritated expression. 

‘When you’re mad at him and he said “come here baby,”‘ she captioned the clip, raising a few eyebrows among fans. 

However, shortly after her initial post, she shifted gears and shared one of Justin’s pictures of them cuddled up together, adorned with heart emojis.

Justin’s post, on the other hand, was straightforward, featuring a series of eight photos of the duo, simply captioned: ‘HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY FROM THE BIEBERS.’

The posts come a day after the Peaches singer, who made headlines with a shirtless spa visit earlier this week, was spotted hanging out with a friend at a go-kart track in Santa Clarita—this time, without his wife by his side. 

The superstar appeared tense without Hailey — who recently enjoyed time away from her spouse — by his side.

The outing came hours after he was called out by fans for leaving a seemingly ‘flirty’ comment on actress Keke Palmer’s latest Instagram thirst trap.

In a comment, captured by Comments By Celebs, Justin sang Palmer’s praises as he reacted to a sexy snap of her in a white crop top, low-rise beige pants and a silk Burberry scarf wrapped around her head. 

‘She said I’m poppin out [heart-eyes emoji],’ the Yummy hitmaker, 30, allegedly wrote under the post.

He appeared to be complimenting Palmer’s glamorous outfit, which she wore to attend a New York Knicks game earlier this week.

Although Bieber’s comment seems to have been deleted or removed, he was among the 118,791 Instagram users that ‘liked’ Palmer’s post.

In response to his comment, one Instagram user wrote: ‘He’s always showing so much love to other girls in the comments.’

‘Justin Bieber already trynna move on from Hailey,’ another critic commented.

Palmer, 31, and Bieber have been friendly for years and have publicly shown support for each other on many occasions.

Justin has recently sparked growing concern among fans after being spotted around New York City on four separate occasions last week, looking notably worse for wear.

Amid rumors swirling about marital issues, the Grammy winner stepped out with a downcast expression and a fatigued appearance, his eyes hollow and distant—far from the bright, bubbly pop star fans once knew.

At just 15, Justin skyrocketed to fame, captivating the world with his infectious smile, signature side-swept hairstyle, and boyish charm. 

Yet, those days now seem like a distant memory, as his scruffy appearance and somber demeanor suggest all may not be well behind the scenes. 

This comes despite the recent joy of becoming a father, with he and Hailey welcoming their son Jack Blue last summer. 

Still, his appearance seems to mirror the growing speculation about his reportedly ‘unacceptable’ behavior, which is said to have strained his six-year marriage to Hailey. 

The tensions are believed to have prompted calls from Hailey’s friends to leave the musician with his ‘unacceptable’ behaviour raising concern.

‘Hailey’s been struggling with Justin almost since the start of the marriage,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘She loves him madly but he’s a loose cannon. Some of her friends have advised her to go it alone and leave him.

‘His behavior is sometimes unacceptable. She’s put up with a lot.’

The insider said Hailey and those close to her were hopeful that he would change after the arrival of their first child, son Jack Blues Bieber, in August 2024, but despite being there for her, little has changed. 

‘When the baby was born he was there for her and she thought being a father would change him for the better, but it hasn’t stuck,’ they added. 

Insiders close to the couple have since revealed to DailyMail.com that Justin’s weary look may be the result of him becoming ‘borderline reclusive,’ struggling with the pressures of large crowds and the constant spotlight after years in the public eye.

‘Justin has been struggling for the last couple of years and a significant part of that is down to his worry about being in certain public situations,’ the source said. 

‘He has built up a deep fear of being out in spaces with lots of people and has a deep-seated worry about large crowds.That is one of the reasons why he’s not done any touring for a while.’

‘Justin focused on trying to heal and get better by staying away from too many outings away from his homes where he would have to mix with strangers – and that in turn has made him borderline reclusive at times.’

His fears have taken a toll on Hailey who has been desperately trying to encourage him to overcome his concerns, with the insider claiming their recent trip to Aspen was her attempt to help ease him into public life.

They added that his extreme wealth and excessive fame has afforded him the ability of never having to leave his house.

‘The toll of being locked away from the world is also tough,’ they said. ‘It is tough on a partner, like Hailey, who is supportive and wants to help him get through these moments.

‘Their recent trip to Aspen is an example of how she is encouraging him back out in public with close friends.’

They suggested that his reclusive behaviour is also connected to becoming a father for the first time.

The Baby singer welcomed son Jack with Hailey in August.

‘He just loves being at home with Jack which impacts his desire to get back to work, although he has mentioned he wants to record, touring is a tough ask at the moment,’ the insider said.

‘Hailey has faced the same struggles that many new moms do too. She has her world turned upside down and that has meant some changes and time to adjust. It’s been a challenging time for her too.’

Speculation about Justin’s health gained traction in the wake of Diddy’s arrest last year. His formerly close bond with the disgraced rapper, real name Sean Combs, came under intense scrutiny, with fans quick to comment on his ‘thin’ appearance.

Sources at the time told DailyMail.com that the combination of the fallout from Diddy’s arrest and Justin’s new role as a first-time dad had left him ‘stressed.’

Soon followed speculation of turmoil between Justin and Hailey, which was further fueled this month when fans noticed he was no longer following his father-in-law Stephen Baldwin on Instagram.

Days later he prompted concern for his marijuana use when he shared a picture of himself using a bong, shortly before unfollowing Hailey on social media.

He quickly claimed he had been ‘hacked’ and set about dismissing claims of troubles by posting an image of his super model wife from their recent holiday in Aspen, Colorado, where he appeared to be recording new music.

‘Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife,’ he wrote in a statement shared to his Stories. ‘S*** getting suss out here.’

Rhode Beauty founder Hailey also appeared to do damage control by sharing a picture of a sleeping Justin.

The musician also raised eyebrows when he unfollowed a number of notable names including his mentor Usher, his former manager Braun and Ryan Good, who was the best man at his wedding, prompting speculation he was trying to shed people from his past as he focuses on new music.

Fans declared the musician is in ‘self-destruct’ mode following the publication of the worrying pictures his week.

‘He looks 40 years old. This young man needs help. Serious help,’ wrote one person. ‘Something is eating at him. It’s not a sign of weakness to ask for help. He has a son to raise.’

‘Too much baggage from his past, too many wolves around him when he was young,’ wrote another. ‘We all know, and I hope he can make it through.’

‘My heart break for Justin…. He is truly self-destructing in front of our eyes,’ added a third.

Justin has struggled on and off over the years with being in public and coping with the intense fame that came with being discovered by Scooter Braun as a child.

He signed his first record deal with RBMG the year he turned 14 and was transformed into a global superstar when he smashed records with the release of his debut album, My World 2.0, two years later.
