What has been said about Justin Bieber’s crying selfie?
Justin’s followers speculated that he was experiencing trouble in his marriage to Hailey Bieber.
Hailey, 27, wasn’t included in his post at all, but she did leave a comment under it.
She appeared to mock the award-winning singer as she wrote, “a pretty crier,” adding a smiling cry emoji.
Some fans in Justin’s comment section side-eyed her reply, and questioned the reasons behind his tears.
“Is that a sign,” one person queried.
“I think he and Hailey might be in a bit of a crisis,” a fan replied.
“Justin, are you okay,” a third concerned user asked, as another added, “Hailey broke his heart.”
Rumors of marital problems between Haily and Justin have been circulating online since late 2023.
Some fans have even speculated the model will attend the 2024 Met Gala with bestie Kendall Jenner, 28, instead of her husband, Justin, amid the rumors.
The theory was presented on a popular online forum after a fan asked if anyone thought she would attend the prestigious event.
“100% sure she’s gonna go with the Kardashian clan,” one shared.
“She won’t pass the chance to make an appearance and make people talk,” before adding, “Not so sure about Justin [though].”
She’ll probably go with [Kendall]. I highly doubt Justin is going to attend,” another guessed.
“Duh, She never passes up an opportunity to be in the headlines. I doubt Justin will be present though,” added a third.
One fan speculated that Hailey “won’t go” if she’s by herself but IS guaranteed to show up if the Kardashians attend.

“The pictures he put up of him crying may have prompted fans to question his wellbeing, and whether his marriage is on the rocks – but it was about his love of Jesus.
“It is deep, but he prays and often sheds tears after diving into his faith and though he prays and gives thanks for all that he has in his life, he gets carried away and the emotions that come from it all are released through tears.”
“He is not ashamed or embarrassed as he wants people to see his emotions. It helps him out for all that he goes through.”
They added, “He feels that people should be vulnerable, and he is being vulnerable, and he believes it shows some maturity that he once didn’t have. In a word, he thinks it is beautiful.”
