Justin Bieber is reportedly not in the best place right now due to his wife, HaileyBieber'salleged lavish lifestyle.
Sources claim the singer is "desperate" for money due to Hailey's high spending, including on private jets and a second costly engagement ring.
The report on Justin Bieber's financial dilemma comes as he and Hailey Bieber await the arrival of their first child together.
Justin Bieber's $10 Million Gig Sparks Concerns About Financial Struggles
Last month, Justin performed at a lavish pre-wedding event for Anant Ambani, the billionaire son of India's wealthiest man.
Despite earning a $10 million paycheck for the gig, questions arose about why the 30-year-old superstar, who is worth an estimated $300 million, chose to perform at the extravagant event.
Two sources, allegedly close to Justin, explained to the Daily Mail that the singer is becoming increasingly desperate.
One of the sources said, "Hailey is a seriously high spender. She has spent tens of millions on private jets to fly around the world, including once taking a plane just to get her nails done at a particular manicurist."
The other source claimed that Justin's music career isn't as prolific as it once was, blaming Hailey for this decline.
"He's isolated from his friends and family. He's miserable right now as Hailey has taken complete control over him. He has lost his identity, and creative drive and he is uninspired," a source claimed.
Justin Bieber Sold His Music Catalog
The situation described by the insiders is a stark contrast to the confident 12-year-old Justin, who burst onto the scene in 2009 with his debut single, "One Time," and went on to captivate the world with his voice, winning two Grammy Awards, 26 Billboard Music Awards, and 23 Teen Choice Awards, among other accolades.
However, Justin hasn't released a new album since 2021, nor has he toured since 2022, having cut short his "Justice" tour due to a health scare.
In September 2022, the "Beauty and a Beat" singer announced the cancellation of his world tour to prioritize his health after experiencing facial paralysis from Ramsay Hunt syndrome, a rare neurological disorder.
Then, in January 2023, Justin made headlines again by selling the rights to his entire 291-song back catalog for $200 million to Music investment company Hipgnosis Songs Capital. This means Justin no longer receives royalties on any tracks released or in which he had an interest before December 31, 2021.
According to the Daily Mail, this move surprised some of his insiders as traditionally, successful musicians sell their catalogs later in their careers to fund their lifestyles as they retire from the spotlight.
One source claimed, "Justin was advised against selling. Hailey played a part in convincing him to do it."
Justin Bieber Bought Hailey Bieber A $1.5 Million Engagement Ring
Justin and Hailey renewed their wedding vows in May in Hawaii, where the Rhodes founder announced her pregnancy and flaunted a new 18-carat oval-cut diamond engagement ring valued at $1.5 million, in addition to her original 10-carat ring priced at $600,000.
An insider alleged, "Justin was initially against [buying the new ring] and some people told him that it was awful of her to even ask for it."
They added that Hailey insisted she "had to have it to renew their vows. In the end, she got what she wanted."
Hailey's influence allegedly extends to Justin's clothing, which has shifted from a more polished style to a grungier look.
"Hailey used to only want Justin to look hot," a source claimed. "Now she likes him to look unkempt because then she thinks that girls will not flock to him."
According to the Daily Mail, a rep for the couple refused to comment on the allegations, branding them "salacious."
Hailey Bieber Says The Negative Criticisms Of Her Relationship With Justin Bieber' Hurts'
Speaking with W Magazine, Hailey shared her feelings about the criticism she has faced since starting her relationship with Justin.
The model said she was made to "feel so bad about my relationship since day one," referencing critics' comments suggesting she and the pop star were "falling apart."
According to Hailey, those comments continued pouring in even after they got married, with some people claiming they were getting divorced.
All of it led the expecting mother to conclude that "people don't want to believe that we're happy."
Meanwhile, their comments left a painful sting that affected her deeply despite initially trying to put up a strong front.
She added, "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 realize that it doesn't actually ever hurt any less."
