On February 26, Hailey Bieber<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s father, Stephen Baldwin<\/strong>, shared a cryptic message on Instagram<\/a> asking for prayers for his daughter and her famous husband, Justin Bieber<\/strong><\/a>. \u201cChristians, please when you think of Justin and Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them,\u201d read the caption, which had originally been posted by All Things Possible Ministries founder and pastor Victor Marx<\/strong>. \u201cRegardless of the material things or the accolades, they often face spiritual warfare that\u2026 seeks to shipwreck their faith, marriage and life in general.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans were understandably concerned about the couple\u2019s well-being. Between health issues and rumors of strife in their five-year marriage, it seems Justin, who turned 30 on March 1, and Hailey, 27, are going through a major rough patch. A source exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em> the two have been fighting over when to start a family, and that Hailey feels overwhelmed by Justin\u2019s mental health issues. Friends fear the couple, worth a combined $320 million, could be heading for divorce.<\/p>\n \u201cTheir marriage isn\u2019t in a good place and they know it,\u201d says the source. \u201cLoved ones are telling them things will get better, but Hailey and Justin aren\u2019t convinced.\u201d<\/p>\n Turning 30 was a big milestone for Justin, and the source says the \u201cStuck With U\u201d singer is eager to have kids<\/a>. \u201cJustin\u2019s been begging Hailey to make him a dad,\u201d the source reveals. \u201cIt\u2019s what he\u2019s wanted for so long.\u201d For her part, Hailey has been open about not wanting to feel pressured, noting how much she hates when pregnancy rumors swirl about her<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s just \u2026 so hilarious how much people f\u2013king care,\u201d she\u2019s said. \u201cLet me do what I want to do with my body.\u201d Yet the source says Justin feels the Rhode Skin founder has broken her promise about their parenthood timeline. \u201cHailey isn\u2019t ready, there are still things she wants to do, and it\u2019s frustrating for Justin. He wants to be a young dad.\u201d<\/p>\n The singer has admitted that his depression has affected their relationship. He\u2019s tried to put in the work. In 2019, he revealed he was in therapy in part to repair \u201cdeep-rooted issues \u2026 so that I can sustain my marriage.\u201d (Two years earlier, he confessed things got \u201cpretty dark\u201d during his early 20s and that he turned to promiscuity and Xanax.) Despite that, his depression is a lot for his wife to handle, says the source. \u201cJustin is so clingy \u2014 Hailey\u2019s worried that if they do have kids, she\u2019d be the one with all the responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n Then there are their physical issues. In March 2022, Hailey was hospitalized after suffering a ministroke and that June, Justin revealed he\u2019d been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which left him with temporary partial facial paralysis. All of it has put a strain on their union. \u201cThey got married so young and weren\u2019t emotionally equipped to deal with all the problems that came their way,\u201d says the source.<\/p>\n They\u2019re hoping a break from the spotlight could help. \u201cJustin and Hailey are planning a trip this spring where they can relax and be themselves away from the public eye and meddlesome people,\u201d says the source. That includes their family. The source says they\u2019re hurt and confused by Stephen\u2019s post. \u201cThe last thing they need is for Hailey\u2019s dad to make such a public spectacle of their problems,\u201d adds the source. Not to mention their pastor, who had shared the initial reel asking for prayers. \u201cIt felt like a violation of their trust.\u201d<\/p>\n That hasn\u2019t stopped them from seeking counseling. \u201cThey\u2019re talking out their problems with a professional and it seems to be helping,\u201d the source reveals. They\u2019re ultimately hoping to avoid the D-word (they reportedly never signed a prenup). \u201cIt\u2019s been a struggle but Justin and Hailey both want to make this work,\u201d says the source. \u201cThey just need to get back to that place where they\u2019re in love again.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nBlowout Fights<\/h2>\n
