LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Justin Timberlake and his wife Jessica Biel have not seen each other in person since his drunk driving arrest.

Biel is reportedly embarrassed and hopes that the arrest will be a wake-up call for Timberlake to reduce his alcohol consumption, according to insiders.

For context, the 43-year-old 'SexyBack' singer was pulled over in the early hours of Tuesday morning after police officers observed him swerving across a road in Sag Harbor, New York, and running a stop sign.

He was charged with one misdemeanor count of DWI and is scheduled to appear in court on July 26.

Jessica Biel, who was filming 100 miles away in New York City, is reportedly relieved that her husband is safe but worried that a more serious incident could occur if he doesn't change his habits.

“Jessica is disappointed but he is her husband so she is by his side and will have his back through all of it.” an insider, as per DailyMail.

They further added, “She would like Justin to curb his drinking, so he never gets into a situation like this ever again. She is treating it like a slap on the wrist and is hoping that it doesn't lead to anything more severe in the future.”

Insiders added that the couple, married since 2012 and parents to sons Silas, six, and Phineas, four, have only communicated via FaceTime since his arrest and have not met in person.

The source asserted, “Jessica and Justin have talked over FaceTime and have texted but with her work schedule and his upcoming tour dates, they haven't physically gotten together to talk about it, but she has his back,”

“They will get together soon once she has time off from filming as she intends to support him on a couple of future shows.”

Later this week, they will be in different states as he continues his Forget Tomorrow World tour, with performances scheduled in Chicago on June 21 and 22.

Internet says Justin Timberlake embarrasses Jessica Biel all the time

After reports that the couple plans to meet soon after adjusting their work schedules, many internet users have shared their opinions, according to DailyMail.

One user claimed, “He embarrasses her all the time - Throw him out and take the kids.”

Another user added, “I’m sure she was upset but they have two kids- what can she do but rip him a new one and then move past it? It’s not going to end their marriage- hopefully- for the sake of their kids.”

The third user wrote, “His alcoholism is out of control.  She looks fed up!”

The fourth user said, “Naturally, any spouse would be embarrassed and angry by what has happened.  It’s just compounded by the fact that they are both celebrities whose careers are in the public eye and I feel bad for their children as they will one day be able to view this on the internet.”

The last user commented, “His wife is obviously level-headed as well as a professional.  I'm certain this is an embarrassment to her.  And, I am certain they have talked about his excessive drinking in the past. She is very supportive and he needs to step up to the plate.”
