Clapping back? Hailey Bieber seemingly had a cheeky response to rumors that she and Justin Bieber are experiencing marriage issues.
The Rhode founder, 28, took to her Instagram Stories on Monday, December 30, to share a TikTok video in which user eyegotthyme repeatedly told viewers, “You’re not well, and it’s OK.”
Over the video, Hailey wrote, “Me to all of you on the internet,” adding a heart hands emoji.
The model’s post came after rumors of marital issues between her and Justin, 30, resurfaced over the weekend on TikTok. Many pop culture commentators on the social media platform pointed out a pair of Instagram Stories from the couple that fans speculated to be directed at one another.
TikTok user leilove77 shared a screenshot from Justin’s Instagram Stories in which the “Baby” singer reportedly posed up close to the camera and added the song “B.E.D.” by Jacquees, specifically using the lyrics that describe a man who only wants to hook up with a woman rather than wanting her love.
Shortly after Justin’s post, Hailey reportedly took to her own Instagram Stories with a screenshot of lyrics from SZA and Kendrick Lamar’s song “30 for 30.” The highlighted excerpt read, “But if it’s f–k me, then f–k you,’” according to the screenshot shared by leilove77.
The TikToker also pointed out that Hailey appeared to be spending the holidays away from Justin, as she posted a photo with friends Lori Harvey and Justine Skye on what looked to be a girls’ trip in Anguilla.
“You would think, like, the first holiday with their child, they would maybe wanna spend it together,” the social media user said.
Leilove77 also referenced a video that Justin reportedly shared on his Stories of two young girls dancing maturely, as he captioned the clip, “Coparenting is failing.” Finally, she shared a screenshot of an image Hailey reportedly shared on her Stories, showing the song “What Do I Do” by SZA.
“[The song is] about finding out your partner cheated on you,” the TikToker said.
Hailey and Justin previously faced reports that they were headed for divorce in March. In Touch exclusively reported on March 28 that the skincare mogul was considering asking her husband, whom she married in September 2018, for a trial separation.
“Hailey’s struggling,” a source revealed. “She just needs time to sort things out on her own. … Hailey’s not asking for a divorce. She knows Justin feels hurt and confused, but she feels lost too. She just needs a break.”
Hailey insisted that any rumors about her marriage were untrue, writing on Instagram, “Just FYI the stories and constant ‘blind items’ I see on TikTok are 100 [percent] of the time wrong. Made out of thin air… come from the land of delusion. So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories, but just know they’re always false, xx sorry to spoil it.”
The socialite and her pop star husband announced in May that they were expecting baby No. 1. Hailey and Justin later revealed on August 23 that they had welcomed son Jack Blues Bieber into the world.
In a July interview with W Magazine amid her pregnancy, Hailey opened up about how the speculation about her marriage issues affected her.
“People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one,” she explained. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced.’ It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy.”
She continued, “I used to try to act like it hurts less and less. I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less.”
