Hailey Bieber addresses speculation she and Justin Bieber were ‘getting divorced’ before pregnancy announcement

Hailey Bieber has opened up about the rumours about her relationship with husband, singer Justin Bieber, and why she initially kept her pregnancy private.

Model Hailey Bieber is reflecting on her relationship with singer-husband Justin Bieber. In a new interview with W magazine, she said that the criticism of her relationship with the Canadian popstar 'hurt' her, even though she tried to act like it didn't bother her.

‘It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy’

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin are expecting their first baby together.

She said, “People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced.’ It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy… I used to try to act like it hurts less and less. I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realise that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less.”

‘I probably could have hid pregnancy until the end’

Hailey said, “I was honestly able to keep it quiet because I stayed small for a long time. I didn’t have a belly, really, until I was six months pregnant, which was when I announced it. I was able to wear big jackets and stuff... I probably could have hid it until the end. But I didn’t enjoy the stress of not being able to enjoy my pregnancy outwardly. I felt like I was hiding this big secret, and it didn’t feel good. I wanted the freedom to go out and live my life.”
