One lonely bird has been taken away from Justin Bieber. In the midst of ongoing criticism and rumors about their relationship, the "Baby" singer and his wife Hailey Bieber appeared to respond to haters by making a powerful gesture with, well, that finger.
In a set of pictures posted to his Instagram on March 27, the founder of Rhode Beauty stood outside his home's music room and posed for Justin while wearing an all-black ensemble and vintage sunglasses. However, Hailey's wedding ring-encrusted left hand stood out the most in the picture as she looked directly into the camera and gave the middle finger.
A candid photo of Hailey and a more lighthearted pose as she approached Justin were also included in the captionless post. Hailey, who has a 7-month-old son named Jack Blues Bieber, reshared the post on her Instagram Story.
Even though the images were striking, they had other recent messages for their detractors. Justin, who married Hailey in 2018, had not-so-subtly addressed the rumors about his marriage in the days before their middle finger memo. He highlighted that his wife's message was "still relevant boo" in a 2019 Instagram post that he posted to his Instagram Story on March 21.
"No matter how amazing life may look from the outside, I struggle," Hailey wrote in the post. "I'm weak, I'm insecure, I’m hurting, I have fears, I have doubts, I have anxiety, I get sad, I get angry."
"There have been more days than I can remember where I've been scrolling through Instagram comparing myself to other people, comparing my appearance, feeling like I'm lacking a lot of things, and really struggling to be confident in who I am because I'm constantly feeling like I'm just not good enough," she added. For me, every day is a struggle for confidence.
Justin made a devastating admission of his own the day after she resurfaced her post that exposed her heart.
He posted a video of a jam session to Instagram on March 22 along with the caption, "I think I hate myself sometimes when I feel myself start to become inauthentic." "Then I realize that we're all being made to feel inadequate, but I still detest it when I alter who I am to appease others."
He wrote, "I got anger issues too, but I want to grow and not react so much smh," in a different Instagram post earlier in the day.
There have been many wonderful times in Hailey and Justin's relationship, despite the fact that they are frequently the targets of disparaging remarks.
