In a heartfelt announcement that lit up social media feeds and ignited a wave of happiness across the celebrity world, American model and socialite Hailey Bieber announced on May 9 that she and her husband, global pop sensation Justin Bieber, are expecting their first child.
The news was delivered in style, unfolding in a breathtaking display of love and affection. Hailey and Justin chose to share their joy through a captivating array of images and a video captured from their vow renewal ceremony in the picturesque setting of Hawaii. Dressed in a stunning lacy Saint Laurent gown by Anthony Vaccarello and a veil that seemed to dance with the wind, Hailey positively glowed as she cradled her blossoming baby bump. At the same time, Justin Bieber stood by her side and photographed Hailey in the lush field, brimming with pride and happiness.
The announcement, made simultaneously on both of their Instagram accounts, quickly became the talk of the town, amassing millions of likes within minutes and inundating the comments section with an outpouring of love and well wishes from fans and fellow celebrities, including, Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Bella Hadid, and DJ Khaled, etc., adding to the excitement surrounding this momentous occasion.
The news comes almost five years after the couple got married in September 2019 in an intimate ceremony at the Montage Palmetto Bluff in South Carolina in front of several celebrity guests and close friends, including Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Jaden Smith, and Joan Smalls. For the occasion, Bieber wore a custom design by the late Virgil Abloh for Off-White, with a veil reading, “Till death do us part.” Justin wore a Celine suit by Hedi Slimane.
The announcement also arrives after months of pregnancy speculation, which Hailey Bieber previously dismissed several times. Despite persistent rumours, notably after her appearance at the 2022 Grammys, where she requested to be “left alone” on Instagram, the couple has consistently expressed their desire for children in multiple interviews.
During a January 2020 Instagram livestream, Justin enthusiastically discussed plans for parenthood with Hailey, saying, “I’m gonna freaking crush this tour (which was eventually postponed due to COVID-19). You and me, travelling the world. Then, after the tour, we have a baby.” In response, Hailey appeared to say “potentially” or “eventually,” then added, “a couple of years.” And now, it seems that day has finally arrived.
Hailey Bieber, known for her work with top-tier fashion brands and her skincare venture, Rhode, has faced the intense glare of fame and public scrutiny on her journey to motherhood. Reflecting on the challenges of constant speculation, she candidly shared with GQ, “Recently, everybody was like, ‘Oh, my God, she’s pregnant,’ and that’s happened to me multiple times before,” she told GQ. “There is something that’s disheartening about, damn, I can’t be bloated one time and not be pregnant? It would be a lie if I was like, ‘Oh, yeah, I don’t give a shit.’”
With a new addition to their family on the way, the Biebers are writing the next chapter of their love story—one that promises to be filled with boundless joy, laughter, and the unmistakable magic of parenthood. As fans eagerly await the arrival of the newest bundle of joy, one thing is certain: the love story of Hailey and Justin Bieber is only just beginning. Congratulations to the Biebers!
