Hailey Bieber has come out to slam the rumors swirling around her marriage to Justin Bieber, describing them as "false." This comes after her father, Stephen Baldwin, sparked concern over their well-being by asking the public to offer up "prayers" for them.
The move reportedly angered Hailey, who didn't like that her dad was drawing attention to them. She seemingly had to endure more troubles after her sister, Alaia, was arrested for assault and battery at a club.
Hailey Bieber Shuts Down Rumors About Her Marriage
The 27-year-old model and founder of Rhode Skin recently took to Instagram to respond to the "blind item" speculations making the rounds on TikTok about her marriage to "Sorry" hitmaker Justin Bieber.
A blind item is a piece of gossip or news, typically from the entertainment industry, that is published without revealing the identities of the people involved. Instead of directly naming the individuals, a "blind item" often provides clues or hints about their identities, allowing readers to speculate or guess who the subjects of the blind item might be.
"Just FYI the stories and constant 'blind items' I see on TikTok are 100% of the time wrong. Made out of thin air… come from the land of delusion," Hailey wrote, per Page Six.
"So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories, but just know they're always false xx sorry to spoil it," she added.
Hailey Bieber's Father Asked For 'Prayers' For Her And Justin Bieber
The whole issue began last week when Hailey's father, Stephen Baldwin, asked the public for "prayers" for the young couple.
The "Usual Suspects" actor shared a post from Victor Marx, founder of All Things Possible Ministries, that featured Justin playing the guitar and singing along to "I Could Sing of Your Love Forever" by Delirious? and the Hillsong Worship.
"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 wrote over the now-deleted clip.
According to the news outlet, he also noted that his family, alongside Hailey's mom, Kennya Baldwin, "often pray together" for them.
"There are special challenges that folks in high visibility positions face and also the enemy doesn't want them to draw closer to Jesus," he wrote in the caption. "So often regardless of the material things or the accolades they often face spiritual warfare that is intense and seeks to ship-wreck their faith, marriage, and life in general. So thank you."
Stephen reposted it to his Instagram stories but didn't add more context, inciting fans to draw several conclusions.
The Model Was Allegedly Angry At Her Dad
Hailey was reportedly unhappy with her father's actions and registered her displeasure after he asked for "prayers" to be offered up for her and Justin.
According to TMZ, a source close to the situation noted that Stephen's action sprang from somewhere and is seemingly related to a certain issue between the couple.
Although the nature of their alleged challenges was not disclosed, Stephen only wanted to show his support by asking for "prayers" from others. However, sources told the news outlet that Hailey is not happy he's drawing attention to them.
The pair, who wed in 2018, showed how much into each other they are when they were seen locking lips just for a date night just over a month ago.
The couple packed on the PDA as they cuddled and kissed and held hands as they exited the restaurant. Justin later posted pictures of their night out without a caption, while Hailey took to the comment to write, "We're cute!"
Hailey And Justin Bieber Attend Church Together
As we previously reported, the pair were seen attending and leaving church together hours after Stephen asked for prayers for them.
The couple emerged looking stoic and attempted to keep a low profile as they exited the Churchome Church in Beverly Hills.
Justin notably looked moody and sad, wearing a dark oversized sweatshirt and a matching scarf that covered his face. Hailey rocked a cheery yellow and gray sweater, but she appeared equally somber.
They made a quick getaway in their $90,000 Tesla Cybertruck and refused to comment on paparazzi's wild questions about their marriage.
