While much of Hollywood spent Sunday penning sweet odes to the dads in their lives, Hailey Bieber was notably silent on Instagram about her husband, Justin Bieber. The couple, who welcomed their first child, Jack Blues Bieber, last August, is experiencing what looks a lot like a social media cold war.
On what should've been Justin's first Father's Day as a dad, Hailey chose not to share a public tribute, even though she was clearly scrolling and posting. Instead of a heartwarming "Happy Father's Day" message, Hailey reposted several updates for her skincare brand, Rhode. Great for dewy skin, not so much for marital optics.
The Silent Treatment (In Feed Form)
Now, it's worth noting that not every couple needs to gush publicly. But in the hyper-curated world of celebrity Instagrams, silence is rarely just silence. It's often a message dressed in ghost mode.
Fans were quick to connect the dots, or more accurately, the lack of them. Especially considering what happened just one month ago, when Justin used Mother's Day as a soapbox for what might be the most eyebrow-raising statement of the year: "Mother's Day sucks a**."
It was Hailey She'd just stepped into the mom role, one of the most hyped milestones in both life and lifestyle branding. Instead of celebrating her, Justin dropped that line on social, which was widely slammed and later deleted. But the Internet forgets nothing.
Tension in the Timeline
Fans and followers have speculated that the couple, once Insta's golden pair, might be going through something. And lately, Justin's online presence has only added fuel to the fire.
Earlier this month, he posted a cryptic message over a pink background that read like a cosmic riddle wrapped in a passive-aggressive blanket: "Telling other humans they deserve something is like raising someone else's kids… God decides what we deserve."
One fan replied brutally honestly: "God told me you need a social media break." Fans have described Justin's posts as erratic, philosophical, and sometimes downright incoherent. Combine that with the Mother's Day misstep and now a Father's Day snub from Hailey, and the public is left wondering: Are things okay in Bieberland?
Where They Were vs. Where They Are
It wasn't that long ago, August 2024, to be exact, when the couple shared their baby news with all the joy you'd expect from two A-listers entering parenthood. Justin posted a black-and-white snap of baby Jack's foot with the caption: "Welcome home Jack Blues Bieber."
It was tender, wholesome, and the kind of moment that breaks the Internet in a good way. But fast-forward to summer 2025, and the vibe is off. There's no joint post, no matching captions, not even a blurry picture of Jack's onesie. Instead, Hailey focused on business, and Justin doubled down on the cryptic quotes.
To be fair, social media isn't everything. Not every couple lives online, and not every holiday needs a digital declaration of love. But when you're a celebrity power couple who's made a brand out of being, public silence tends to speak louder than words.
