Are Justin and Hailey Bieber proving they’re stronger than ever despite his marriage confessions on Swag?

Justin and Hailey Bieber appear to be staying close, even as the singer’s new album Swag opens up about the highs and lows of their marriage.

In a new batch of sun-soaked selfies posted to Instagram on Sunday, Justin and Hailey looked relaxed and affectionate while lounging aboard a yacht during their European vacation.

The model-socialite wore a checkered bikini top and black bolero, while Justin opted for a green-and-white striped shirt with beige linen pants.

The post, simply captioned with an Italian flag emoji, also included photos of Justin posing solo in his nautical outfit and shots of luxury sailboats at night.

The public display of affection follows the surprise release of Swag, Justin’s seventh studio album, which features lyrics about relationship tension and emotional vulnerability.

In “Walking Away,” he reflects on arguments and growth:

“Girl, we better stop before we say some s**t… I told you, ‘I’d change’… These growing pains / And baby, I ain’t walking away.”

Another track, “Daisies,” poses a raw question:

“You said ‘Forever,’ babe, did you mean it or not?”

But not every track dwells on doubt. In “Go Baby,” Justin paints a soft portrait of Hailey’s daily details and his support:

“Like water to a flower, babe, I know you need the rain.”

Justin and Hailey, who married in 2018 and renewed their vows in 2024, continue to face tabloid speculation about their relationship.

Nevertheless, the pair’s recent getaway and online presence hint at a bond that remains intact, even when the lyrics hint at turbulence.

“They are soulmates”: Justin and Hailey Bieber weather marriage struggles amid private tensions, insider claims

Justin and Hailey’s recent vacation comes after weeks of reports hinting at tension behind the scenes.

According to Us Weekly, the couple is currently facing a “tough” chapter in their marriage, though sources insist the odds of a split are low. An insider spoke:

“Justin’s going through a difficult time, and Hailey is giving him room to get himself back on track. He’s doing his best, but it’s tough.”

The source also noted that things have been very tense in the last month. Hailey is reportedly worried about her husband, especially with a baby at home, and that the pop star hasn’t seemed this down in quite some time, which has raised concerns.

Despite that, the insider emphasized the strength of their connection, adding:

“They believe they are soulmates and meant for each other. They’ll do anything to make it work. He’s a loose cannon, and Hailey’s making room for that. They are going to get through it.”

Justin and Hailey haven't publicly commented on their recent European getaway and some cozy yacht selfies, but it suggests they’re continuing to show up for each other even amid private challenges.

Meanwhile, Justin Bieber made a surprise drop of his 7th album, Swag, on July 11. The new project contains 21 tracks, such as "All I Can Take," "Daisies," "Go Baby," and "Butterflies," among others.

Hailey has supported Swag by appearing in promo shots alongside Justin and their 10-month-old son, Jack Blues.
