Hailey Bieber is finding strength in the chaos and grace in the most vulnerable moments of her life. In a deeply personal Vogue Italia interview published July 23, the 28-year-old Rhode founder opened up about the emotional journey of becoming a mother to son Jack Blues. She revealed how she’s learned to stay grounded in love and truth amid relentless speculation about her marriage to Justin Bieber.
“The most delicate period I’ve ever been through in my life,” she said of her postpartum journey. “Learning to live with a new version of myself was very difficult.”
At the same time, Hailey said she was overwhelmed by a wave of false narratives online. “And having to do all this while constantly reading falsehoods on the internet like ‘They’re getting divorced’ or ‘They’re no longer happy together’ is something that really drives you crazy,” she said. “I’m not even sure I can explain it. It’s a crazy life.”

It’s the one I share with my wonderful family, with my friends, with the people who know me and love me.”
Model Kendall Jenner, one of Hailey’s closest friends, also praised her warmth and resilience, telling Vogue Italia, “She’s caring, almost maternal. I’m a bit of a hypochondriac, and if I’m having a panic attack, she’ll come right over and take care of me.”
Justin Bieber Weighs In: “The Smartest Thing I’ve Ever Done Was Marry Hailey”

“He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win. There is no winning,’” she recalled. “I’ve learned so much from Justin.”
In a statement shared with Vogue, Justin Bieber, 31, echoed his love and admiration for his wife. “She’s in the spotlight and has the attention because of her effortless knack for style, business, art, and fashion,” he said. “And the way she makes being a mom and wife look easy.”
“I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life,” he added, “but the smartest thing I’ve ever done was marry Hailey.”
Marriage, Motherhood & Moving Forward
Hailey and Justin tied the knot in a civil ceremony in 2018 before hosting a star-studded wedding celebration in 2019.
Now, with their baby boy Jack and years of public pressure behind them, the couple is finding ways to tune out the noise. Earlier this month, Justin shared a carousel of affectionate photos on Instagram, offering fans a glimpse into their beautiful life together.
