Yes, Hailey Bieber has seen those posts, but she doesn't have time for them anymore.
In a wide-ranging new cover story interview with Vogue, the model and Rhode founder opens up about new motherhood, protecting her peace, and how she deals with the never-ending online discourse from online trolls.
In the interview, Hailey Bieber admitted that the constant speculation around her marriage to singer Justin Bieber did get to her, especially after welcoming their son Jack Blues Bieber in the summer of 2024.
“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,” she explained of the shift. “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*ck. I cannot even begin to explain it. It’s a crazy life to live.”
The Biebers have been together for quite a long time now, but the laser-focused scrutiny on them from the public and from "fans" has not abated since they tied the knot in 2018.
“I thought seven years in it would’ve already [died down], and it hasn’t. You would think after having a child, people would maybe move on, chill out a little bit, but no,” Bieber said of the relentless and hostile online chatter. “So I guess these b*tches are going to be mad.” Bieber has been dealing with online trolls and gossip for years, and has never been shy about fighting back and standing up for herself.
“I feel like I’ve fought so hard to try to get people to understand me, or know who I am, or see me for me. And people just don’t want to sometimes,” she shared. “And there’s nothing you can do about that. I’ve been in a position where I’ve tried to tell my side of a story or correct a narrative or tell the truth of a lie and then they go, ‘Well, she’s lying.’ Imagine how trapping that feels.”

But Bieber has also learned how to step away and let things go — with a little help from Justin. “I’ve learned so much from Justin, really," she continued. “He’s been doing this literally since he was a child… He was like, ‘Baby, trust me, I’ve been here before many, many times. You’re not going to win. There is no winning.’”
As for Mr. Bieber, he told Vogue via email that he is “walking in the days I always dreamed of” with his little family of three. “I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life, but the smartest thing I’ve ever done was marry Hailey.” (Crying.)
Justin also added that he understands why his wife is the subject of so much online vitriol: “She’s in the spotlight, and has the attention because of her effortless knack for style, business, art, and fashion,” he wrote. "And the way she makes being a mom and wife look easy.”

For one thing, Hailey Bieber seems to have finally come to peace with accepting headlines and TikTok videos for what they are: noise. Noise that has nothing to do with what is actually going on in her life.
“It’s not real,” the model said of the constant attention. “And that’s the thing: I have a real life. My real life is that I get to wake up to my beautiful family and my son and my friends and I have people that know me and love me and I love them.”
And no, in case you were wondering, the constant attention is not driving the Bieber family out of Los Angeles. "There’s a new headline every two days that makes no sense,” she shared. “There’s no leaving LA for us. We love it here.”
