Insiders revealed the Canadian singer is struggling to adjust to no longer being the center of attention, especially as Hailey’s professional achievements outshine his own.

This deal has exploded into tensions in the Bieber household, with a source saying the couple's relationship is under serious strain.

“It feels like a blow to his ego,” a friend and confidant told The US Sun. "Justin is becoming incredibly selfish, and that deal has deeply upset him. He cannot stand the idea of being the ‘number two’ in their relationship now."

The insider also noted that Justin is “obsessed with being the dominant figure in their relationship” and has become “jealous” of his wife’s business success.

Friends of the couple believe Hailey Bieber expected her husband to show encouragement, but instead faced an unexpected reaction.

“She wanted him to show her love, support, and pride, but instead, she has faced coldness and jealousy,” a business consultant familiar with the pair told the publication.

The sources told the publication that the tension between the two is at “an all-time high.”

“Justin has been dreaming of similar deals for years but has not achieved them,” the publication reported, citing the unnamed consultant.

“He resents that she is a better businessperson than he is, and her success makes him feel inadequate as a businessman," they further said.

One more insider told The Sun that Justin Bieber’s behavior has turned childish and resentful, rather than supportive, during Hailey’s milestone moment.

“Justin is behaving like a spoiled teenager and is refusing to support his wife during her moment of glory,” said the source. “It’s disappointing to see him act like this.”

According to another friend, Bieber does not want to take a secondary role in the relationship, “regardless of what Hailey achieves.”
