Justin Bieber’s social media activity has led to rumors about the state of his marriage. Fans question if the marriage is strained because of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ September 2024 arrest.
Justin Bieber has been on an unfollowing spree in recent days. He’s ditched multiple celebrities from his social media follow lists, including his ex, Selena Gomez. The most shocking unfollow came more recently. In a surprising twist, Justin Bieber unfollowed his wife, Hailey Bieber, on Instagram. The action ignited separation rumors. While Bieber showed back up on Instagram a short time later to rectify the situation and explain his behavior, fans aren’t buying it. Many believe the stress of his association with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is weighing on his marriage.
Justin Bieber briefly unfollowed Hailey Bieber
It was a wild few hours. Fans took to social media to point out that Hailey Bieber was the latest victim of Justin Bieber’s unfollowing spree. The “Sorry” singer no longer followed his wife on Instagram for several hours, although she was still following him. The odd change sparked separation rumors. A few hours later, he re-followed Hailey and offered an explanation for the strange social media activity. Still, rumors about the bizarre moment swirl.
While Justin and Hailey Bieber are back to following each other, fans aren’t buying Justin’s explanation. The pop star took to Instagram to claim that “someone” had unfollowed his wife. He went on to claim that “S**t is getting suss out here” in an Instagram story about the situation.
While the explanation could be true, fans think Justin Bieber did unfollow his wife, only thinking better of it when fans and the media picked up on the detail. It’s possible that he and Hailey don’t want to air out their personal troubles just yet if they are, in fact, separated. If they are experiencing issues just months after welcoming their first child together, fans think Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ legal troubles could be to blame.
Is Diddy to blame for potential marital issues?
While it’s unclear exactly why Bieber opted to unfollow his wife on social media, even briefly, some fans feel sure that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ recent legal troubles have caused strife in the Biebers’ union. Bieber is rumored to be “anxious” about his association with Diddy.
While rumors are swirling that Bieber is fearful that his connection to Diddy will be problematic eventually, he doesn’t seem to have much reason to worry. Bieber has not been named in any lawsuits, nor has the media honed in on his connection to the now-disgraced music mogul. Bieber also doesn’t appear to be doing much to distance himself from Diddy. While the former child star unfollowed a slew of people from his past, including Usher, he is still following Diddy. A video of Diddy and a then-teenaged Bieber spending a “buck fool crazy” 48 hours together is still uploaded to Bieber’s YouTube channel.
For now, the Biebers have not made any announcements about the state of their marriage. Presumably, they are still together. If they aren’t, it seems unlikely that Diddy’s legal woes caused the marriage to break down. Things could change at any moment, though.
