All About Justin And Hailey
Justin Bieber has come a long way since his YouTube days. Usher took Justin under his wings back in 2008, helping the boy-next-door charm the world with his debut single ‘Baby’ in 2010. His first album got him nominated for a Grammy, and the rest is history. Bieber fever was in full swing as he released his biographical documentary Justin Bieber: Never Say Never the following year. Supported by his loyal Beliebers, he went on to become one of the best-selling recording artists of all time.
Hailey Baldwin’s career took off when she graced high-profile magazines, fashion shows, and commercials in 2014. It’s hard not to notice the model’s beauty after working with big names like Vogue, Moschino, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, and Levi’s! She also had a few acting gigs, including an appearance on SNL with her uncle Alec.
How They Fell In Love
Justin and Hailey first met in 2009, and there’s an awkward video to prove it! Hailey was only 13 her father, Steve Baldwin, introduced her to the pop sensation. They took a backstage photo at The Today Show, which Justin playfully posted as a throwback on Instagram years later.
Their Friendship
In 2011, we spotted Hailey and her dad at Justin’s Never Say Never premiere. That same month, Justin and Selena Gomez publicly announced their relationship. Strangely enough, Hailey showed support for her friend’s newfound love, tweeting: “I’m for sure 100% team #Jelena”. Oh, how the tables have turned!
Jelena On The Rocks
Justin and Selena’s on-and-off relationship took its toll since they started dating in 2010. The two singers briefly parted ways in 2012, then once again in 2014, ending with Justin crying about missing his ex in several interviews.
A Love Story To Remember
In 2014, Justin and Hailey became mutual BFFs with Kendall Jenner, attending the same Hillsong church as a group. Kendall posted some photos of her hanging out with JB and HB, driving fans crazy with speculations on their closeness. Now, let’s take it back to when dating rumours between Justin and Hailey starting buzzing!
“Just Friends” With Hailey
Justin and Hailey hung out a lot after the Jelena break up in 2014. Fans and tabloids suspected that they were dating, but both insisted they were just “good friends”. Justin took to Instagram with defensive captions and Hailey backed him up with tweets confirming she was single.
From Jelena to Jailey
In 2015, Justin tried to win Selena back by publicly serenading her at The Montage in Beverly Hills. But when that didn’t work out, Justin started dating around, eventually going for his long-time friend Hailey. The same year, he got a tattoo that matches the one behind her ear: a letter ‘G’ in honour of their close friend’s disabled daughter.
Insta-Official & Insta-Over
On January 3, 2016, Justin posted a blurry photo of himself making out with none other than Hailey. This shocked some of his fans, while others totally saw it coming. Later on, a source told People Magazine that Hailey gave Justin an ultimatum to stay committed, but things didn’t go as planned. It was a short-lived affair, lasting only a few months until Justin unfollowed Hailey on Instagram.
Make Up To Break Up
The ‘One Time’ singer dated multiple models and actresses while he was single. He experienced one scandal after the other, setting his music career aside so he could deal with his problems. On the other hand, Hailey dated a few guys but didn’t get involved in anything serious.
Justin got back with Selena after she was hospitalised for Lupus in November 2016. Fans were delighted to hear they were back together, but Gomez’s family didn’t approve, prompting them to call it quits for one last time on March 2017. Jelena fans were totally heartbroken – but obviously, no one took it harder than Justin did.
One More Chance
Justin and Hailey got back together on June 2018 and have been inseparable ever since. They were spotted getting cozy in church, at the club, and on vacation – they definitely weren’t shy about displaying affection in public!
Their Engagement
On July 7, 2018, Justin proposed to Hailey during a romantic vacation in the Bahamas, popping the question while they were dancing at a restaurant. He got down on one knee and gave her a personalised 18 karat oval diamond ring that he helped design. Hailey loved the ring so much that she wore it everywhere! Days later, Justin shared the news by posting a long love letter for his blushing bride-to-be.
The Private Ceremony
They had a civil wedding in New York City within just two months of getting engaged on September 13, 2018. In an interview with Vogue Australia, Hailey had plenty to say when asked about the difficulties of being married and moving in together.
“Look, marriage is always going to be hard and I think good relationships are the relationships that you put the work into. Specifically, I said that when there were a lot of new things. I had never lived with someone before. I never had to cohabit with somebody in that way, so I was learning how to share space with someone for the first time. We were trying to bend in each other’s direction and learn what was comfortable.”
Life As Newlyweds
Justin and Hailey made a vow of celibacy, and people praised their patience and respect for each other. Their common religious beliefs brought them closer together, even when things were tough at the start. Hailey told Vogue Australia: “I grew up in a Christian church, same as my husband, and I’ve been vocal about my beliefs. That’s something that makes a part of our relationship easier, too.”
Since their marriage, Justin has been more open about his struggles with mental health and his past. Despite his problems, Hailey has been very supportive, standing by him no matter what.
The Honeymoon
A few days after their civil union, paparazzi spotted the couple making out at a park in London. Justin even serenaded her on the streets, melting everyone’s hearts as a crowd gathered around them to take videos!
If you follow them on the gram, you’ll know how vocal they are about their love for one another. Justin uses adorable (and sometimes cringey) pet names like “wifey”, “goo goo”, “my little bean”, and our ultimate fave “hunny buns pumpkin”. They’ve also done a couple of IG live broadcasts, giving fans glimpses into their lives as a couple. Just recently, Justin fired back at rude comments about his new relationship, saying: “unfollow me if you don’t like what I post.”
Pregnancy Scare
Justin infuriated his followers when he pranked them with photos of a “pregnant” Hailey, complete with a sonogram shot. Needless to say, it was a harmless April Fool’s joke and the two don’t plan on having children anytime soon. They’ve mentioned starting a family in the future, but for now, they’re happy with their dog Oscar and kittens Sushi and Tuna.
Tying The Knot Again
While Justin had a wholesome night out with Post Malone, Hailey enjoyed a wild bachelorette party with her girlfriends! When the pre-wedding festivities were over, Hailey pampered herself at the Pellequr Spa for some much-needed relaxation before the big day.
The Celebration
On September 30, 2019, Justin Bieber married Hailey at the Palmetto Bluff chapel in South Carolina, marking the first anniversary of their marriage in NYC. They exchanged vows in front of friends, family, and God in an intimate but extravagant setting. Needless to say, the star-studded trended everywhere on social media!
Hailey’s amazing wedding dress was designed by Off-White’s very own Virgil Abloh, spelling the words “Till Death Do Us Part”. She showed it off by posting a photo from their wedding day, captioned: “last Monday was the most special day of my life”.
Becoming The Biebers
Love is in the air! Days after their wedding, Justin shared a photo captioned: “Looking forward to forever with you @haileybieber”. Though it looks like they won’t be going on another honeymoon, a friend assures us that they treat each day like it’s an anniversary. Now, they live happily ever after at their Beverly Hills home in Los Angeles.
Happily Ever After
As Justin’s wife, Hailey Bieber is ready to spend the rest of her days with the love of her life. She’s been there for him since they were kids, and we look forward to seeing them grow old together. Whether you’re with them or against them, the couple has made us true Beliebers in love!
