The drama in the Bieber household continues as new sources claim something is happening behind the scenes with Justin & Hailey Bieber.
The power couple gained media attention on February 28 when Hailey's father, Stephen Baldwin, implored the public to pray for the pair. His actions struck the wrong chord with his daughter, who insiders allege is displeased about the sudden interest in her affairs.
Justin & Hailey Bieber Are Allegedly Dealing With A Private Problem
When Stephen reposted a famed church minister's post about Hailey and Justin, many became curious about the couple and why they require prayers. There may be something going on with the duo, as sources claim they are dealing with a private issue.
Although these insiders did not share what the pair are struggling with, they noted Stephen's plea for guidance and well-wishes toward his daughter and son-in-law is related to the mysterious problem.
Neither Hailey nor Justin have dropped any signs of trouble in their relationship, which is why the sudden plea for prayers confused their fans. However, it seems the Baldwin patriarch tried to help the couple by imploring others to share goodwill messages.
Unfortunately, his attempt to help didn't impress the other parties. The informants stressed to TMZ that Hailey is especially not pleased with her dad drawing attention to them, and this may be the reason behind her sullen expression after the plea dropped on Wednesday.
The model and her husband attended a religious service that evening, hours after Stephen reposted the church minister's prayer post. It is safe to assume the couple knew of the unwanted publicity and could not hide their displeasure.
Hailey & Justin Bieber Look Sullen In First Sighting After Stephen Baldwin's Plea
As stated, Hailey and Justin were spotted shortly after famed Church minister Victor Marx asked people to pray for the couple, and Stephen reposted the post. The couple looked subdued as they left the Churchome Church in Beverly Hills.
The "Baby" hitmaker raised alarm bells with his stoic expression and low-key ensemble that paled significantly compared to his signature pop star vibes in a low-key ensemble. He wore a gray oversized sweatshirt and a black scarf that covered his face.
Justin completed the look with loose cream trousers and black shoes. Meanwhile, his wife added a splash of color with a yellow and gray sweater over baggy jeans and red-tinted sunglasses.
She complimented her casual look with red lipstick and a black handbag; however, her dull expression overshadowed her glam.
Justin and Hailey remained equally somber while avoiding the paparazzi outside their church. These nosy paps reportedly asked shocking questions about their marriage, but they escaped the uncomfortable situation in their $90,000 Tesla Cybertruck.
Fans Are Worried For Justin & Hailey Bieber
The speculations about the Bieber couple began when religious leader Victor Marx, the General Overseer of All Things Possible Ministries, implored people to send prayers to the duo on Instagram.
He shared a video of Justin playing the guitar as he performed a gospel song alongside the overlay text: "Christians, please, when you think of Justin & Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection and to draw close to the Lord."
Marx dropped more details about his message in the post's caption, explaining that he, his wife, Eileen, and Hailey's mom, Kennya Baldwin, often pray together for the famous couple and their other children. He continued:
"There are special challenges that folks in high visibility positions face, and also, the enemy doesn't want them to draw closer to Jesus. So often, regardless of the material things or the accolades, they often face spiritual warfare that intense and seeks to ship-wreck their faith, marriage, and life in general. So thank you."
The religious leader's post sparked concern among his followers, with many noting that Hailey and Justin require God's grace. One Instagram user wrote:
"Praying they are released from their soul contracts, and MK Ultra programming. Praying they're set free, in the mighty name of Yeshua! Jesus paid for it all. The blood 🩸 of the lamb overcame it all. Praying for them and others in the industry who are prisoners of ties and entities we only imagine."
Meanwhile, Stephen seemed to have reposted the plea for prayers on his Instagram Stories to reach a wider audience and did not give further context about Marx's post.
