Justin and Hailey Bieber are ‘unbreakable’ as they battle health issues

Pop star Justin Bieber and model wife Hailey’s bond reportedly remains “unbreakable” despite both facing challenging health issues.

In an interview with People magazine for their recent cover story, a friend of the couple commented on their hardships, saying: “Hailey has been so supportive of Justin, just like he supported her with her health issues. They’re unbreakable.”

The source’s revelation appears to echo Hailey’s own comments, which she made in a recent interview on Live with Kelly and Ryan.

Speaking to the hosts, she said: “I think honestly the silver lining in what I went through, what he went through, is it really bonds you.”

28-year-old Justin recently took to Instagram to share a video with fans outlining that he’s been suffering from Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which causes partial paralysis of the facial muscles.

The paralysis caused him to cancel his remaining US tours, with a statement issued on his Twitter reading: “In light of Justin’s ongoing recovery, the remaining US Justice tour shows scheduled for June and early July will be postponed.

“Justin continues to receive the best medical care possible, is upbeat about his recovery, and is looking forward to getting back out on the road and performing for his fans overseas later this summer.

“Details on rescheduled US dates will be made public shortly. Refunds will be available at point of purchase. Tickets will be honored for all rescheduled dates.”

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is a painful rash around the ear, on the face, or on the mouth, that occurs when the varicella-zoster virus infects a nerve in the head, before spreading to the facial nerve.

The revelation came just months after his wife Hailey, 25, revealed that she’d suffered a mini-stroke, after a blood clot travelled from her heart to her brain, due to a small hole in her heart.

The model detailed the ordeal in a 12-minute YouTube video, called ‘telling my story’, in which she said that the stroke was from a blood clot as a result of a combination of a long-haul flight, Covid, and side effects from birth control pills.

She told fans how she noticed something was wrong when she began having trouble with her speech and her fingertips went numb while having breakfast with Justin.

She said: “[It was] definitely the scariest moment of my life.”
