HuffPost
As the couple prepare to welcome their first child, Hailey says they’ve been facing rumors “since day one.”
As Justin and Hailey Bieber prepare to welcome their first child, the media speculation over the state of their six-year marriage remains just as intense as ever.
In a candid interview with W Magazine, Hailey Bieber hits back at some of the scrutiny, telling the publication that while she’s accustomed to living her life in the spotlight, dealing with the rumor mill hasn’t gotten easier with time.
“People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced,’” the model said. “It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy.”
She went on to note, “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.”
Hailey Bieber, who is the daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and designer Kennya Baldwin, was first romantically linked with Justin Bieber in 2015.
