It was never that crazed, screaming thing. I didn’t think about it in any kind of way except for the fact that he was cute. Everybody had a crush on him. But for the first few years we had a weird age gap.”

February 11, 2016: Justin and Hailey Bieber publicly acknowledge their relationship but deny exclusivity

In GQ’s March 2016 cover story, Justin addressed his relationship with Hailey, describing her as “someone I really love. We spend a lot of time together.” He explained that there was already “a lot that [he had] to commit to” and that adding a girlfriend to the mix felt like a recipe for disaster.

“I know that in the past I’ve hurt people and said things that I didn’t mean to make them happy in the moment. So now I’m just more so looking at the future, making sure I’m not damaging them,” he said, before noting that he was making decisions with his and Hailey’s potential future union in mind. “It’s really hard to fix wounds like that. It’s so hard … I just don’t want to hurt her.”

For her part, Hailey confirmed to E! News that the duo were “not an exclusive couple. He’s about to go on tour,” she said. “Relationships at this age are already complicated, but I don’t really like to talk about it because it’s between me and him.”

“Negative things happened that we still need to talk about and work through,” Hailey later told Vogue of their split.

“‘Fizzled’ would not be the right word — it was more like a very dramatic excommunication,” she explained. “There was a period where if I walked into a room, he would walk out.”

In May 2018, she also told The Times U.K. that the pair “went through a long period of time when we weren’t friends,” adding that “there was a lot of weirdness that went on.”

“The common denominator, I promise you, is always church,” Hailey told Vogue the following year of their reconciliation. “By then we were past the drama. I just gave him a hug. By the end of the conference, he was like, ‘We’re not going to be friends.’ I was like, ‘We’re not?’ “

The pair’s rekindled romance soared to new heights over the rest of the month, with a number of PDA-fueled public appearances, from toweling each other off in Miami to canoodling in Brooklyn and The Hamptons and attending a church service together in Washington.

“You want your wife to do something that you’re not doing and it’s like, it’s hard sometimes to look in the mirror and really have to realize, man, maybe you’re not the person that you necessarily thought that you were,” he continued. “And that’s just a result of trauma and life circumstances.”

Hailey opened up to Harper’s Bazaar about some of the challenges she faces in her marriage to Justin after four years and two serious health scares.

“I just think life is changing all the time,” she said. “Day to day, week to week, year to year. I think a perfect example of that is over the last six months, both of us have gone through very serious health issues. You have to figure out how to deal with this shit as it comes, you know? There’s a reason they say ‘for better or for worse.’ Like, that’s for real!”

Despite any obstacles, however, Hailey said Justin is “still the person that I wanna be rushing back to.”

She continued, “I might fly somewhere and go do a job, but I can’t wait to come back and hang out. And I feel like that’s because of the effort that’s been put in on both sides. At the end of the day, like, he’s my best friend, but it still does take a lot of work to make it work. And then I know eventually, when kids come in the picture, that’s going to be a whole other season of navigating how to make that work.”

“Even something like that, I’m just like, well we are married, and he’s a huge part of my life, and obviously people are very interested in our life together,” she added.

Hailey also discussed Internet trolls, explaining, “You’re not obligated to like me, but I believe that no matter what, there can always be mutual respect between people,” she said. “To me that means, you don’t have to say anything.
