This week, Justin Bieber posted a tribute to his wife, Hailey Bieber, on Instagram. This post comes not long after a disastrous celebration of her Vogue cover last week. In the caption, Justin recalled a fight he had with his wife, prompting outrage from fans. The caption is still on many people’s minds, as the comments on his recent post have proved.

Justin Bieber recently angered fans with an Instagram post about Hailey Bieber

Hailey appeared on the cover of Vogue’s summer edition this month. To celebrate his wife, Justin shared a photo of the cover with a caption recalling a fight they once had.

“Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight,” he wrote in the caption. “I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue. Yikes I know, so mean. For some reason because I felt so disrespected. I thought I gotta get even..”

Shocked fans swarmed the comments to express their disappointment. Within a few hours of posting, Justin changed the caption to four emojis. This did little to help him, though, as fans continued to flood that post and subsequent ones with comments.

Justin Bieber seemed aware of the criticism in a new post about Hailey Bieber

On May 28, Hailey announced that e.l.f. Cosmetics acquired her company, Rhode Beauty, for $1 billion. Justin shared a screenshot of Hailey’s post, but did not include a caption of his own. Fans were quick to notice. They joked that he was no longer allowed to write captions after the backlash. 

“Bros in caption jail,” wrote one person.

“Daddy’s not allowed to do captions anymore,” wrote another.

Some believed Hailey might have said something to her husband. He included a screenshot of her caption, instead.

“Not writing a caption but posting hers, she deff yelled at him lmao,” wrote one person.

While people joked about the lack of a caption, many thought it was a “smart move” on his part. 

“He learned his lesson with the caption…” wrote one person.

She spoke about her new roles after the deal

In Hailey’s Instagram post, she spoke about the pride she felt after the sale of her company.

“When I launched @rhode in 2022, I always had big dreams for the company, and the most important thing to me is to keep bringing rhode to more spaces, places, and faces globally,” she wrote. “So today I am so incredibly excited and proud to announce that we are partnering with e.l.f. Beauty as we step into this next chapter in the world of rhode. I found a like-minded disruptor with a vision to be a different kind of company that believes in big ideas and innovation in the same way that I do and will help us continue to grow the brand.”

Though she is selling the company, she said will remain heavily involved in its operations. She is taking on new roles.

“I feel invigorated, excited, and more ready than ever to step into an even bigger role as Chief Creative Officer, and Head of Innovation of rhode as well as strategic adviser to e.l.f. Beauty,” she wrote.
