Hailey Bieber is sharing the psychological impact that all the divorce rumours had on her barely weeks after giving birth. During a recent Vogue interview, the model and businesswoman opened up about how gruelling the postpartum period was for her, both because of the new motherhood bodily and emotional shifts, as well as because of the fake headlines surrounding her marriage to husband Justin Bieber.
Hailey Bieber Opens Up On Postpartum
The two welcomed their first child, Jack Blues Bieber, in August 2024. However, rather than enjoying those initial days in tranquillity, Hailey was bogged down by the internet rumours that had her marriage on the rocks. She opened up about the rumours taking a toll on her mental health and slowing her healing process. The pressure forced her to go for therapy and face the mixed feelings involved in becoming a mother and the intense media scrutiny.
While Hailey firmly denied the separation rumours, she admitted they took a toll during an already fragile time. “I was in the most vulnerable state I’ve ever been in, and to see false stories about my marriage everywhere made it even harder to recover,” she explained in an interview with Vogue. According to her, the experience of postpartum was already emotionally intense, and the added pressure of being under constant media watch made it feel overwhelming.
Nevertheless, Hailey ensured that her relationship with Justin was strong. She indicated that their home life is loving, joyful, and supportive. “My reality is waking up next to my husband and my baby, being surrounded by people who truly know and love me,” she said, indicating the contrast between the online story and her real everyday life.
In spite of the hurdles, Hailey stated that she’s loving every moment of motherhood. Though she has designs to add to their family, she’s moving at a snail’s pace, opting to concentrate on a child at a time. She confessed that the postpartum experience has been a big change, and it was a challenge as well as gratifying to learn how to comprehend this stage of herself.
Hailey also got strength from the words of encouragement she heard from singer Ariana Grande, which reminded her that she does not need to allow negative voices into her life. Now, she’s drawing strong boundaries and not letting the false narrative define her or her family.
