Hailey Bieber is Vogue‘s summer cover star, despite what Justin Bieber once told her during a heated moment that he now regrets.
Following the publication of the model’s big feature in the fashion magazine Tuesday (May 20), the pop star congratulated his wife by posting photos of the shoot on Instagram and proudly revealing that her achievement had caused him to eat his words from a long time ago. “Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight,” he wrote in his caption. “I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue.”
“Yikes I know, so mean,” he continued. “For some reason because I felt so disrespected I thought I gotta get even.. I think as we mature we realize that we’re not helping anything by getting even … So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn’t get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken.”
The Biebers have certainly come a long way since the fight in question, with the couple getting married in 2018. Last August, they became parents when they welcomed son Jack Blues, about which Hailey told Vogue: “Giving birth was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. … That s–t was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing.”
The pop star also gushed about his marriage to the Rhode founder in the piece. “I’ve done a lot of dumb things in my life,” he told the publication, “but the smartest thing I’ve ever done was marry Hailey.”
“She’s in the spotlight, and has the attention because of her effortless knack for style, business, art and fashion,” he added when sharing his thoughts on why his partner attracts so much hate online. “And the way she makes being a mom and wife look easy.”
Hailey’s Vogue cover comes just two days after she and Justin attended the Stanley Cup playoffs together to cheer on the Toronto Maple Leafs, cuddling up in their seats as the “Peaches” artist fawned over the players. A week prior, Justin celebrated his spouse by throwing a lavish Mother’s Day celebration for her, complete with a candlelit dinner and Mariachi band.
With four years passing since Justin last released an album — 2021’s Justice, which spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 — fans are eager to hear new music from the star. Luckily for them, Hailey confirmed that her husband is working on something new. While welcoming Vogue into her home, she said as the sounds of him singing bled through the walls: “I forgot Justin is recording, otherwise I’d say let’s get cozy.”
