Here is all you need to know about the couple’s time together.  

2009

Justin and Hailey meet for the first time, with Justin aged 14 and Hayley aged 12. 

A video recorded at the time, captures a shy and young Hailey shaking hands with the pop sensation after they were introduced to one another by Hailey’s father Stephen.  They are then to be quickly shaking hands with one another after the round of introductions by Stephen.  

At the time, Hailey has bright blonde hair and is wearing makeup, clad in a brown sweater. Bieber has his full early years hairdo in perfect place with the locks pulled toward his face. The Beauty And A Beat singer is dressed in a leather jacket and beige shirt.

It is not know where exactly the two of them first met, but it appears to be a movie premiere.

2015-2016

While they frequented similar social circles after their first meeting in 2009, it was not until 2015 that it was clear they were more than friends. 

The duo rang in 2016 together with a vacation to Anguilla, where Justin posted a photo of them sharing a kiss. Around this time, the couple acknowledged they were seeing each other, without being in an exclusive relationship.

‘We are not an exclusive couple,’ Hailey told E! at the time. Justin also admitted Hailey was someone he ‘really’ loved, but that he was not quite ready to devote himself to a relationship.

‘What if Hailey ends up being the girl I’m gonna marry, right? If I rush into anything, if I damage her, then it’s always gonna be damaged,’ he told GQ. This saw Justin briefly move on from Hailey to have a short relationship with Sofia Richie.

2017

After being introduced by their managers in 2009, Selena and Justin made their public debut as a couple at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in February 2011.

‘We were so in love. Nothing else mattered,’ Bieber told Complex in 2015 about his and Gomez’s relationship, referring to it a ‘marriage kind of thing.’ They dated on and off until 2014 before reuniting for a short while in 2017 but split for good in 2018. 

In an interview with Billboard, Selena admitted she never stopped caring for Justin.

‘I’m 25. I’m not 18, or 19, or 20. I cherish people who have really impacted my life,’ she said. ‘So maybe before, it could have been forcing something that wasn’t right.

‘But that doesn’t mean caring for someone ever goes away.’

2018

Justin and Hailey then started dating one another. 

The lovebirds were often pictured packing on the PDA for all to see throughout New York City.

Just over a month after reigniting their romance, the couple were engaged. Justin proposed to Hailey during a romantic getaway to the Bahamas with a massive diamond ring.

Hailey and Justin appear on the In Good Faith with Chelsea & Judah Smith podcast, where they discussed the trials and tribulations they faced in their first year of marriage. 

At the time, Justin was battling with severe bouts of depression, which saw Hailey concede that watching her partner having to deal with mental health issues was a difficult experience for her. 

‘There were days where I literally was like, “I don’t know if he’s going to be okay.” Something really deep down inside of me was like, “He’s going to get through it.” I just didn’t know how long it was going to take. That’s what I think was the hardest thing. There’s no guarantees,’ she said.

Nevertheless, Hailey was determined to stick by her husband, adding: ‘Imagine abandoning somebody in the middle of the worst time of their life, potentially. I’m not that type of person’.

February 2022

Hailey shares that she has refrained from discussing her marriage in interviews.

Hailey suffered an alarming health scare and was hospitalised after having stroke-like symptoms, but was able to make a full recovery.

‘Justin texted everyone he knew and asked everyone to pray for her, and he never left her side. He was saying that he can’t lose her, that whatever it takes, he wanted the best medical treatment available.’

Justin subsequently addressed situation during one of his concerts. ‘You know, it’s kind of crazy how life throws you curveballs,’ he said during a Denver performance.

‘Most of you probably know or seen the news about my wife …but she’s okay, she’s good, she’s strong. It’s been really scary. But I know for a fact that God has her in the palms of his hands, and that’s a good thing.’
