Justin Bieber Revealed Why His Wife Was Not Ready to Become a Mother Until Now
Justin Bieber recently shared exciting news on Instagram: he and his wife Hailey are expecting their first baby. Hailey has talked about her mixed feelings on becoming a parent. While she really wants to be a mom, she’s also concerned about the criticism their child might face.
Since getting married in 2018, Hailey and Justin have talked about having kids. In a 2020 interview on Ellen DeGeneres’ show, Justin explained why Hailey didn’t want to have kids right away. The singer said he’s fine with letting Hailey decide when and how many children they’ll have.
“It’s her body and whatever she wants to do,” he said. “Hailey still has some things she wants to accomplish as a woman.” He jokingly added, “I’m going to have as many as Hailey is willing to push out. I’d love to have myself a little tribe.”
Hailey has talked about the pressure on women after marriage, saying life events don’t have to follow a strict timeline. The model said there are career goals she wants to accomplish before becoming a mother.
“There’s this thing that happens for women when you get married. Everybody always assumes it’s: First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby,” she said. “Well, what about all the things I want to accomplish in my business?”
Hailey was quite open about her decision to wait to have kids. She mentioned that she “definitely” doesn’t plan to have kids in 2022, saying, “I think I had it ingrained in my head that I was going to want to have kids right away, and I was going to want to have kids super, super young. Then I turned 25, and I’m like, ’I’m still super, super young!’”
When Justin and Hailey Bieber announced they are expecting a baby, some people were not delighted with the news and expressed doubts about the sincerity of Justin and Hailey’s relationship.
