Why did Justin Bieber dump his wife Hailey after they both worked so hard to put divorce rumors to rest?
Many celebrity couples use this kind of action as a soft launch of a breakup.
Except, according to Biebs himself, that's not what it's about.
What's going on between Justin and Hailey and why did she suddenly disappear from his suite?

As you can see in the screenshot below, fans discovered that Justin was no longer following his wife on Instagram.
This can happen in two ways. The first occurs when the second person blocks the first, thereby removing them from follower status.
And the first is when the original user no longer follows the second. Did Justin unfollow Hailey? Why would anyone stop following their own wife?
Justin Bieber says he hasn't given up on Hailey, even though his account has
Fans noticed early Tuesday morning that Justin seemed to have given up on Hailey.
This type of activity often allows celebrities to allow their followers to infer relationship problems without confirming anything.
Sometimes a couple separates and reconciles quietly without making an official statement. Once you say something to the public about the breakup, it makes reconciliation even more difficult. Your statements will follow you. But that's not what happened here.
Take to his Instagram History, Justin shared a text message with his subscribers to clarify things.
“Someone logged into my account and unfollowed my wife,” he announced. “It’s shit here.”
Notably, Justin did not specifically claim to have been a victim of “hacking.” It's possible someone got their hands on his phone. Maybe even a so-called friend who decided to pull a weird and tasteless prank.
Is the marriage to Bieber going well?
According to the Biebs, everything is fine with Hailey. An alleged prankster simply decided to cause drama for no good reason. After all, the two are enjoying a getaway to Aspen.
However, fans couldn't help but notice that Justin seemed to share this post. Before follow Hailey again. Even Tuesday afternoon, his name did not appear among his followers. It's strange.
Plus, “I was hacked” is arguably the oldest celebrity social media excuse in the book. If Justin had impulsively dumped Hailey during a brief marital disagreement, would he have admitted it when fans noticed? Or would he blame an anonymous third party?
As he says, things are moving forward Suss.
