Justin Bieber unleashed a tidal wave of love (and maybe a touch of sappiness) to celebrate his better half, Hailey Bieber, hitting the grand old age of 27 on Wednesday, November 22. The maestro of Justice, at the ripe age of 29 himself, didn’t opt for a traditional birthday card or a cake with too many candles. No, he went for a short, sweet video featuring Hailey’s head comfortably parked in his lap, topped off with a smooch for good measure. A modern-day Shakespeare, this guy.
In the heartfelt caption accompanying the intimate video, Justin spilled his emotions like a toppled smoothie. “Happy birthday baby. You make life wonderful,” he professed. “And I’m the lucky one that gets all of you.” Cue the collective “awws” from the internet. To sprinkle a bit of emoji magic on top, he threw in a heart-eyes emoji, because nothing says love like tiny digital hearts for eyes.
The video, a masterpiece of romance in the digital age, found its way to Hailey’s Instagram Story, adorned with a teary-eyed emoji and a pair of hands forming a heart. It’s like a modern art piece, but in the form of social media posts.
Not content with just soaking in the love from her hubby, Hailey took a moment to thank the fan army that bombarded her with birthday wishes. She even treated them to a snapshot of her stargazing adventure and a video of the night sky. “Thank you for all of the birthday wishes. 27 is feeling so cozy,” she shared, accompanied by a generous serving of heart emojis. The cozy feeling might just be the warmth from all that virtual love.
The floodgates of affection burst wide open, and fans couldn’t help but dive into the comment section to express their own feels. One ardent supporter declared, “IDC what ANYONE says they’re the definition of SOULMATES.” Another fan, clearly moved by the spectacle, proclaimed, “You two deserve nothing but all the love and happiness! Happy birthday Hails.” It’s like the internet turned into a virtual love fest, complete with confetti and heart emojis galore.
Married since 2018, Justin and Hailey have managed to keep some aspects of their relationship under wraps, throwing fans into a frenzy of speculation. In October, the model had to set the record straight about baby rumors, firing back in an interview with GQ, “There is something that’s disheartening about, ‘Damn, I can’t be bloated one time and not be pregnant?’ It would be a lie if I was like, ‘Oh, yeah, I don’t give a s**t.’ When there comes a day that that is true, you, as in the internet, will be the last to know.” So, in case you were wondering, the internet is not on the VIP list for baby news. They’ll get their invitation when the storks are ready to make the announcement.
