Continuing to fuel relationship gossip between his daughter and Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber’s father Stephen sparks concern with prayer requests for her.
Earlier this week, Stephen took to his Instagram account to re-share a post in his Story asking for prayers for the Biebers. “Christians, please when you think of Justin [and] Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them,” the post from Victor Marx reads.
“To have wisdom, protection and to draw close to the Lord. There are special challenges that folks in high visibility positions face.”
The post also features Hailey Bieber’s husband Justin playing the guitar and singing I Could Sing of Your Love Forever. Stephen notably did not give a reason why he was asking for prayers.
The post comes just weeks after it was reported that Justin and Hailey Bieber have been struggling in their marriage. A source told InTouch that Justin has been extra clingy to Hailey. “And he relies on her so much for his emotional and psychological well-being. There are times Hailey just wants to end it so she can be on her own again.”
The insider also stated that the couple has been fighting over former relationships, past behavior, and having children. “They’ve had a lot of ups and downs. Friends are surprised they’ve lasted this long.”
“Hailey’s grown into a strong individual,” the insider pointed out. “As a model, she’s learned how to deal with stress, whereas Justin has been babied his whole life. Hailey sees him as an immature kid at times.”
Hailey Bieber Revealed Her ‘Favorite Thing’ About Her Marriage to Her ‘Best Friend’ Justin
In Feb. 2023, Hailey Bieber opened up about her marriage to Justin and what her favorite thing about her life with the Beauty and the Beat hitmaker was.
“My favorite thing about being married is honestly the companionship I feel we have,” Hailey said to Justin in an interview with Vogue Australia. “Genuinely, you are my best friend in the entire world. There’s nobody I would rather spend more time with or do anything with.”
The couple has been together since early 2018 and got married just two months after their engagement in July 2018. Nearly a year after their private vow ceremony, Justin and Hailey Bieber had a large ceremony in South Carolina. Their close friends and family were in attendance for the big event.
However, not long after the wedding, Hailey Bieber opened up about the struggles in her marriage. “That is the sentence you should lead with,” she told Vogue at the time. “It’s really effing hard.”
