Justin Bieber calls out 'jealousy' over his marriage with Hailey in statement
Justin Bieber has lashed out at social media users who have speculated he and wife Hailey Bieber are heading for divorce.
The duo, who welcomed their first child Jack in August, have endured a turbulent few months, with Justin's worrying online behaviour and speculation mounting that they are on the rocks after seven years of marriage.
With many fans worried about Justin – and others commenting on the status of his relationship – the Baby hitmaker, 31, has called out commentators as being 'jealous' of their marriage.
In a long and somewhat incoherent Instagram post, he said that feelings of 'guilt' can be relieved by 'not going to church'.
'They treat me like ass out here, but if I remember that I am flawed too and god forgave me,' Justin said, adding: 'It helps to stop feeling better than those people who are mean and hurtful.
'Because when I'm really honest I can be mean and hurtful too.

'My instinct is to be like damn I wouldn't gossip and spread lies about someone on the internet but there's other s**t I do I'm not proud of.'
The star continued: 'And honestly if I was u it would be hard not to be jealous if I saw me and Hailey going as brazzzzyy.
'It's really up for us and that's understandable why people can't stand it,' he said.
'I don't blame em. Hailey and I are the Jones' that are impossible to keep up with.'
This post is the latest in a string of erratic social media ramblings from the Canadian singer, whose behaviour and dishevelled appearance has raised eyebrows in recent months.
Concern grew when he was spotted smoking an unidentified roll-up next to his teenage brother at Coachella, with fan footage also showing him hunched over and bobbing along loosely to his 2015 song What Do You Mean?, appearing to look unsteady on his feet.
Years after he rocketed into the spotlight at a young age producing hits including Sorry, Yummy, Love Yourself and One Less Lonely Girl, fans have become worried about Justin Bieber.
His last few years have seen big changes in the star's life. In 2022, he was diagnosed with facial paralysis condition Ramsay Hunt syndrome, and last year he became a dad for the first time after welcoming baby boy Jack with wife Hailey Bieber.
Justin called the concern about his behaviour 'exhausting', but continued to post worrying social media content.
In one, he declared that he was 'changing' and 'letting go'.
He wrote: 'Not trying harder! Are you tired of trying to follow all of the rules in hopes to get the results you crave?'
Explaining that love was 'more powerful than rules', he insisted: 'It's time to grow up. Changing is about letting go!
'I tried to follow the rules. I'm not good at it. But u don't need to follow rules to enter into a life of love. U just receive so enter love living!
'God always grants us love! It's one of his promises! Upon receiving God's love! U start to change and start following love.
'Today I'm letting go and remembering the weight isn't on me to change. The weight is on God. So I give all my insecurities and my fears to him this morning. Because I know he gladly takes it. Asking Jesus to genuinely help me with simply the next step today [sic].'
Earlier this year when fans noticed Justin had unfollowed his wife on social media, he claimed that someone had accessed his account without his knowledge.
In a short message before re-following Hailey, he fumed: 'Someone just went on my account and unfollowed my wife.
'S**t is getting suss out here.'
Earlier this year a source told The Daily Mail that Hailey, 28, doesn't know 'where to turn' for 'help' as Justin becomes more withdrawn.

'It's like he doesn't care about his well-being anymore,' they continued. 'He's moodier too. People are worried that he's lost any motivation, even for his music.' More Trending
They claimed he 'won't listen' to Hailey as he stops eating, drinking, and working — including when it comes to music which he used to love.
'He won't listen to her when she tries to help,' the source added. 'Hailey struggles with where to turn.
'It's not as if she can ask his family for help – or hers for that matter. They've both experienced estrangement from them.'

Tammy Hembrow's ex and baby daddy Matt Poole appears to take a swipe at fitness influencer following her split from husband Matt Zukowski
Matt Poole appeared to take a thinly veiled swipe at his ex, Tammy Hembrow, on Thursday. The swimming coach, who split from the fitness influencer at the end of 2023, shed light on the difficulties of co-parenting after receiving 'fifty missed calls and messages' from Tammy, whom he shares three-year-old Posy with. He said it was 'never easy' raising children separately, especially when it comes to travel arrangements. 'I'll tell you what, co-parenting is never easy,' the 37-year-old said in a video taken in his car. 'But when you check your phone to see fifty missed calls and messages, and Posy is supposed to go to Queenstown this afternoon only to realise that her passport is at my house. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'God damn,' he said, as he showed the Australian passport in his hand. 'Panic stations,' Matt, who also shares newborn son Parker with his partner Annelyse, captioned the clip. 'Passport dropped, holiday saved,' he added. It comes after news broke that Tammy, 31, has fled the country in the wake of her split from husband Matt Zukowski, 29. The pair are headed for divorce after just seven months of marriage, and the social media star has jetted off to New Zealand to rest and recuperate. In a post shared to Instagram on Thursday, Tammy announced she was heading to Queenstown with her kids, before sharing footage of the family at the airport. 'Errands before our lil getaway. Honestly, this couldn't have come at a more perfect time' Tammy wrote in her caption. 'Guys, give me all your Queenstown recommendations' she added alongside a series of images in which she posed alongside her car. In a post shared to Instagram on Thursday, Tammy announced she was heading to Queenstown with her kids, before sharing footage of the family at the airport Tammy later uploaded some short videos in which she was at the airport with her children to her Instagram Stories. One clip showed her daughter enjoying a snack and a dance; another showed her son complaining about the price of airport food. It comes a day after Tammy revealed that she feels 'lost' after announcing her split. The influencer is looking toward the future and is hopeful she can rebuild from the ashes, she told her fans on Instagram. 'I feel like I've lost myself a thousand times… and each time I've found something new. So here's to that,' she wrote in her caption. The comment came alongside a carousel of images of Tammy enjoying an iced drink with what appeared to be a friend.

Glastonbury Festival fans surprised with secret set from iconic DJ and his son
Glastonbury Festival 2025 fans were over the moon with Fatboy Slim's secret set, with his son Woody Cook joining him on stage Glastonbury Festival 2025 fans were over the moon as Fatboy Slim took to the stage to perform a secret set. The iconic DJ performed to just a few dozen people, with Fatboy Slim, real name Norman Cook, bringing on his son Woody - who he shares with radio star Zoe Ball. The 61-year-old DJ brought the energy to the small stage while his son Woody, 24, acted as the hype man and danced and bounced around. Fans were delighted by the set and took to the video shared on Instagram to compliment the father-son duo, with one person writing on Woody's page: "Well done lads." "You have no idea how much we love you Norman. Yes was on the beach in Brighton over 20 years ago. LEGEND," another huge fan commented. One said: "What an amazing thing for father and son to do!!" and another questioned: "Why is it not on iplayer?" The 24-year-old son of Fatboy Slim and Zoe Ball recently discussed his family in an interview with OK! Last month, he revealed he's ready to give back to his 'heroic' mum and dad as he discussed following in his parents' footsteps. When asked about DJing, he said: "It's beautiful. They say when you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. I've always been a storyteller and I never originally wanted to be a DJ, but I loved making music so much. Turns out, DJing is just like telling stories, through sound." Woody also doesn't mind people comparing him to his parents as he praised the "heroic people". He said: "I can't tell you who I'd be without my parents. "They gave me the best education ever from them. More than anything, my parents are heroic people. They are the most generous, loving, kind, hard-working people on Earth, and that's what they've given me. "I feel like I owe it all to that. It doesn't matter who they are in their day-to-day life, they are amazing human beings." It was a hectic weekend at Glastonbury as Sunday kicked off with Glastonbury bosses slamming Bob Vylan's 'Death to IDF' chants on stage, declaring the punk rap duo had "crossed the line". It comes as police confirmed that they are investigating the footage. On Sunday afternoon, Rod Stewart performed in the Legends slot after fellow singer Kate Nash lashed out at the legend on Saturday evening. The rocker earned rave reviews but errors in his set included introducing special guest Lulu before realising she would be joining him on stage later. He made some surprise comments back in 2023 about retiring, where he said: "I'm not retiring. But I want to move on. I had great success with The Great American Songbook, all-American standards, and I've just done a swing album with Jools Holland, which is going to come out next year, so I want to go in that direction. I just want to leave all the rock 'n' roll stuff behind — for a while, maybe."

Wimbledon star branded 'pig' in horror abuse
Rising tennis star Jodie Burrage talks about having to 'know yourself' to deal with online trolls, her sporting dreams and why she 'wouldn't be where she is today' without rugby star boyfriend Ben White When British tennis star Jodie Burrage moved into her London apartment just two streets behind Wimbledon' s iconic All England club, she was buying more than a home. 'I can see Court One from my balcony,' says Jodie, who is currently the British No.7 ranked female player. 'When I moved in, I hadn't yet played the main draw Wimbledon. Maybe subconsciously I was trying to manifest it.' Within two years, that hope became a reality. In 2021, Jodie made her Grand Slam singles debut in the Wimbledon championships with a wildcard entry. She returned a year later and by 2023 cracked the WTA Top 100 after winning first-round matches at both Wimbledon and the US Open — moments she now calls 'career defining'. But last summer, sidelined by a foot injury, the 26-year-old found herself watching the sport she loves from that same balcony. 'It was bittersweet,' reflects Jodie, who was on crutches with her foot in a protective boot for 10 weeks after rupturing an ankle ligament during a practice session with British No.2 Katie Boulter, shortly after recovering from wrist surgery. 'It was a dream to play there. But missing it last year because of injury was really tough. I was so close to where I wanted to be, but in a strange way, seeing Wimbledon from that vantage point gave me so much motivation to fight my way back.' And fight she did. Now, with the start of this year's tournament on 30 June, Jodie is playing both women's singles and doubles after earning another wildcard spot. 'Walking back onto those courts again this year means everything. It will be a full circle moment and a real reward for all the hard work I put in to get back from the injury last year,' she smiles, referring to the fitness regime that got her back in top shape – a gruelling six-days-a-week training programme, complete with one-hour warm-up, one-hour gym workout, a 30-minute cardio conditioning session, plus rehab and physiotherapy. 'I've been working hard to get my body ready and I believe I can get back to my career-best ranking of 85,' she says. 'Then the dream is to be in the top 10 in the world. That's where I want to be for the rest of my career!' Behind her own resilience is a stellar support system, namely her retired accountant mum Yvonne, computer software specialist dad Chris, and her rugby player boyfriend, Ben White, 27, who she met on Instagram six years ago. 'I wouldn't be where I am now without Ben,' Jodie says of the scrum-half, who plays for French side Toulon. 'A year into our relationship, after my third ankle operation, I said I was done and I was contemplating retirement. 'At the time, he was going through shoulder surgery, so we were dealing with similar emotions and bonded over that. If it wasn't for him — as well as my family — I wouldn't have set foot back on the court. He kept me believing I could get back to the level I was before injury, and he was there for me and kept me as happy as I could be in that time. I was very lucky for that.' Yet with elite sport highs come crashing lows and last month, when Ben wasn't selected for the British Lions' summer tour of Australia, Jodie says the emotional impact seeped into her own performance at the French Open, where she lost in round one. 'Two sportspeople, living a life together, can be chaotic and quite hard to manage and when those emotions come into it, you just have to be there for one another,' she explains. 'I wasn't having the results I wanted — I won one or two matches — and I was dealing with other stuff off court as well as trying to help Ben. It was a difficult time.' Juggling their long-distance romance — while Jodie lives in London, Ben is in the south of France — isn't always easy, but they make it work. 'When I go to France and Ben is training for six hours, I understand it. A lot of people wouldn't,' says Jodie. The couple share a black Labrador, Otto, but have no immediate plans for marriage and children. 'We've spoken about it before, but we're just enjoying where we are now and there's no rush for us. With my career, I'm not having kids for another five, six years, so there's literally no [point] in rushing it. We're just happy focusing on our careers.' Growing up in Hindhead, Surrey, Jodie was four when her tennis-obsessed mum put a racket into her hand. A promising gymnast too, she trained up to 14 hours a week until a county tennis coach spotted her potential at 11 and tennis became her priority. Now known for her grit and fighting spirit after bouncing back from setbacks, Jodie is hungry to inspire the next generation. 'It feels wonderful to be encouraging visibility and engagement in female sport and to be part of that momentum,' she says, before expressing concern over research showing 45% of teenage girls globally drop out of sport — double the rate of boys — largely because of body confidence issues. 'You need good nutrition, strength and stamina. in sport, but every sport has different needs, so everyone's going to look different. In tennis, there is possibly every single body type you could imagine.' Jodie is herself no stranger to scrutiny. 'There's no hiding from the abuse that you get after matches. It's pretty much after every single game,' she sighs, noting that many culprits are gamblers who strike whenever she loses a game. 'Right now, people are loving the pig emoji on my Instagram. I'm a bigger girl than a lot of others in professional tennis and it's a conversation I've had to deal with throughout my whole career. That's the downside of social media. It's tough.' Although Jodie — who developed a 'thick skin' growing up in a household with three brothers, Zach, Ben and Seb — says she can 'deal' with the abuse, she worries about the potential effect on younger players. I can push that to one side, but I know some people struggle with [that kind of criticism],' she says. 'You just have to know yourself and be strong within yourself.' To stay grounded, Jodie embraces normal life. 'In our downtime, Ben and I play a fair bit of golf, we go for dinners, we have barbecues and do fun stuff. I let my hair down sometimes,' she says. 'Some deem it bad if athletes relax with a drink or a cheat meal, but you don't have to get blind drunk. To help get me in a better place to perform mentally on court, sometimes I need to relax in a beer garden, have a few drinks and chat about what every other person chats about!'
