Hailey Bieber has responded to rumors that she and Justin Bieber are getting a divorce, while also opening up about giving birth.
Gracing the cover of Vogue’s Summer 2025 issue, the model and Rhode skincare mogul opened up about the wild rollercoaster that was giving birth to her son with Justin, surviving postpartum struggles, and clapping back at relentless internet trolls.
Hailey, 28, gave birth to baby Jack Blues Bieber in August 2024 after a grueling 18-hour labor that ended with a medical emergency.
“Giving birth was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” she told Vogue, adding that during pregnancy, “I was on that s***. I was doing everything. I felt stronger physically than I ever had before.”
She explained she was induced at 39 weeks due to leaking amniotic fluid and described how things escalated quickly: “That s*** was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing.”
After welcoming their seven-pound bundle of joy, things took a terrifying turn. Hailey suffered a postpartum hemorrhage that left doctors scrambling to stop the bleeding.
“Which was a little bit scary,” she admitted. “I trust my doctor with my life,” she said. “And so I had peace that I knew she would never let anything happen to me. But I was bleeding really badly, and people die, and the thought crosses your mind.”
But Hailey’s not done being a mom. “I want more kids. Definitely one more, maybe more,” she said. “I’m going to take it a kid at a time.”
As for Justin? He’s clearly in awe of his wife.
“My woman is a god. A superhero. I could never,” he told Vogue, while reflecting on fatherhood: “I’m walking in the days I always dreamed of.” He even called marrying Hailey the best decision he’s ever made:
“I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life, but the smartest thing I’ve ever done was marry Hailey.”
Still, things haven’t always been so perfect.
Justin dropped a truth bomb on Instagram, admitting he once doubted Hailey would ever land a Vogue cover: “Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight. I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue, Yikes I know, so mean,” he wrote.
“For some reason because I felt so disrespected. I thought I gotta get even... I think as we mature we realize that we’re not helping anything by getting even we're honestly just prolonging what we really want which is intimacy and connection.”
He added: “So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn't get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken.”
But beyond the glam and the gushy marriage moments, Hailey also opened up about the dark side of postpartum life.
“Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I've ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult,” she said.
“And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, They're getting divorced and They're this and They’re not happy: It is such a mindf***. I cannot even begin to explain it. It's a crazy life to live.”
She also tackled the pressure to “bounce back” physically and mentally.
“Every day I have to talk to myself, like, Hailey, you had a baby. You grew a human. You birthed a human. It’s okay. Give yourself grace. Give yourself time.”
While she’s working with her team to shed the 15 pounds she gained, she’s also embracing her new body: “When people talk about 'bouncing back' -- back where, because my hips are wider, my boobs are actually bigger than they were before.
"They did not go back. And great, I'll take it, but it's not the same body that it was before,” she said.
“You're not the same person that you were before. You change head to toe. And I think there was a minute where I kept really hyper-fixating on getting back to what I was.
"And then I had to go through that acceptance of, I'm not going back. So it’s really about how do I want to move forward? Who do I want to be?”
