LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Hailey Bieber shared a pointed message to her social media followers amid the growing scrutiny on her husband Justin Bieber's relationship with disgraced rap mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs.

On Monday, October 7, the Rhode founder took to Instagram to share a throwback picture of her husband with both middle fingers in the air, as per Daily Mail. The 30-year-old singer appeared only in his board shorts in the snap captioned "mood."

The Diddy scandal unfolded weeks after the couple welcomed their son, Jack Blues, in August.

Following the music mogul's September 16 arrest, the 'Baby' singer's past association has been under intense scrutiny, with resurfaced clips showing a then-15-year-old Justin spending "48 hours with Diddy."

Hailey Bieber steps out while Justin Bieber concentrates on his new role as a first-time father

Hailey Bieber's cryptic post followed her recent outing in Hollywood with best friend Kendall Jenner, where she took a break from the scrutiny and embraced her new role as a mother. The duo visited a sushi restaurant where both looked in high spirits. 

Hailey, in a gray cardigan, her blonde hair in a bun, completed her look with Le Specs sunglasses. Meanwhile, Jenner looked classy in a black trench coat.

The outing comes amid reports that Justin is set on ignoring the mounting speculations about his bond with Diddy and instead concentrating on his new role as a first-time father.

Justin Bieber 'stressed' over Sean 'Diddy' Combs controversy

Justin Bieber, who has yet to make a public statement about his former mentor's descent from fame, has been "sailing these waters alone" because he has no one to talk to about his experiences with Sean "Diddy" Combs.

A source said, "Justin feels like there is no one that he can talk to that understands and, to be honest, he doesn't even fully understand. He was a kid."

The insider added that the current situation coincided with the 30-year-old struggling to find his balance as a good parent in light of his own lack of similar experience from his father, Jeremy Bieber.

They claimed, "Justin is stressed right now. He has a baby boy and trying to be a good dad without having anything to reference what a good father is."

Regarding Justin's emotional state, the insider added the singer was "sailing these waters alone and everyone fears that if Hailey shows any struggles with being a first-time mom then this is going to be incredibly difficult for Justin."

The clips of Justin with Diddy started resurfacing in March when Homeland Security raided the latter's Miami and Los Angeles homes.

One video featured a 15-year-old Justin standing next to Diddy, who announced, "He's having 48 hours with Diddy, where we hanging out and what we're doing we can't really disclose. But it's definitely a 15-year-old's dream."



 

Justin's most recent collaboration with the disgraced music mogul was in 2023 for his album 'The Love Album: Off the Grid'.
