Candace Owens blames 'Black propaganda campaign' for relentless Justin and Hailey Bieber divorce rumors

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Far-right political commentator Candace Owens insisted Justin and Hailey Bieber are not going through a rough patch in their marriage on the Thursday, April 10 episode of her YouTube podcast.

Rumors of marriage woes have been doing the rounds since December last year, however, the couple has shut them down multiple times. Most recently, Justin and Hailey were spotted together en route to the Coachella music festival on April 9, along with their crew, as per People. 

Candace Owens refutes divorce rumors about Justin and Hailey Bieber 

Candace Owens, 35, blamed the media for fanning false speculations about pop star Justin Bieber, 31, and influencer and entrepreneur Hailey Bieber, 28, heading for a divorce after getting married in 2018.

"The press is all over it with rumors and all of this innuendo that Justin and his wife, Hailey, are on the rocks, that Justin does drugs, and also that he's sold his entire musical catalog because he's flat broke," Owens said. 

She went on to call out outlets such as the Daily Mail for promoting the rumors, saying, "It's ridiculous. It's everywhere, and the headlines are just... comical… I mean, there's a picture of them walking together at Disneyland, and he's not smiling because nobody just walks like this and smiles as they walk down the street."

"They're like, 'Look at how miserable he is in this marriage, look at how unhappy Justin Bieber is, right?' They (the media outlets) believe that the first thing they need to do is break apart his support system," argued Owens. "This is a common method when you're engaging in a Black propaganda campaign."

Candace Owens emphasized that her response is not a PR stunt

Candace Owens attempted to establish in the video that her claims about Justin and Hailey Bieber were something that she believed in personally, and not a part of any PR campaign for the celebrity couple.

"I think I know the truth, you guys. Now, I do not know Justin Bieber. I do not know Hailey Bieber. I'm not being employed or paid in any capacity by Justin Bieber's PR team, nor am I even in touch with Justin Bieber's PR team or manager," she stated.

The commentator revealed that her opinions were shaped by her own experience, as the media allegedly tried to split her up from her husband. However, it ended up bringing them closer together.

"I can tell you, you can take this all the way to the bank, that Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber are not on the rocks. They are just being attacked. Some of these attacks are paid campaigns which you are seeing," Owens claimed.

"Some are organic responses to these paid campaigns, so you have some people who are there, being told and targeted to go after him and to go after Hailey Bieber and to make it relentless," she further stated.
