Hailey Bieber opened up about her life with husband Justin Bieber and their son, Jack Blues — and admitted that it hasn’t always been smooth sailing since she became a mom.
“Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I’ve ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult,” Hailey, 28, told Vogue in a cover interview published Tuesday, May 20. “And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, ‘They’re getting divorced and they’re this and they’re not happy’: It is such a mindf***. I cannot even begin to explain it. It’s a crazy life to live.”
The Rhode founder and Justin, 31, tied the knot in 2018 and welcomed Jack Blues, 8 months, last August. The duo have recently been plagued by rumors of a split following speculation about whether they’d unfollowed each other on social media, but they’ve both clapped back at speculation about their relationship.
“It’s a glitch. Didn’t unfollow him. Hope this helps!” Hailey wrote in a March TikTok comment, responding to a video about their alleged estrangement.
In her Vogue cover story, Hailey went on to say that Justin’s experience as a former child star has helped her a lot with figuring out how to respond to trolls.
“I’ve learned so much from Justin, really,” she said. “He’s been doing this literally since he was a child and he has had to face the most scrutiny of any person that I know. He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win. There is no winning.’”

New mom Hailey Bieber can’t believe how fast time flies. The model, 28, posted a new photo of her baby boy, Jack Blues, via Instagram Stories on Saturday, March 22, marking the little one turning 7 months old. “7 months 🥹🤍,” she wrote over a picture of herself holding Jack, who wore a yellow “Bieber” […]
She also admitted that rumors about her relationship with Justin — who has been open about his own mental health struggles — aren’t the only thing that’s been difficult about her transition to motherhood. She’s also been working hard to accept her body, which she said has changed a lot since the arrival of baby Jack.
“Every day I have to talk to myself, like, ‘Hailey, you had a baby … You grew a human. You birthed a human. It’s OK. Give yourself grace. Give yourself time,’” she explained. “When people talk about ‘bouncing back’ — back where, because my hips are wider, my boobs are actually bigger than they were before. They did not go back. And great, I’ll take it, but it’s not the same body that it was before.”

She also shared details about Jack’s birth, revealing that she experienced a postpartum hemorrhage after his arrival. “Which was a little bit scary,” she told the outlet. “I trust my doctor with my life. And so I had peace that I knew she would never let anything happen to me. But I was bleeding really badly, and people die, and the thought crosses your mind.”
She added, “Giving birth was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. … That s*** was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing.”
Justin, meanwhile, had only positive things to say about his wife, telling Vogue, “I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life, but the smartest thing I’ve ever done was marry Hailey.”
