Justin and Hailey Bieber continue to be devoted to each other in their marriage. Speaking on In Good Faith With Chelsea & Judah Smith on Monday (Nov. 1), the couple discussed standing by each other through tough times, which saw Hailey talking about her determination to support Justin while he was struggling with his mental health.
"I had experienced so many things in my life," Justin shared on the podcast. "So many milestones and traveled the world and seen everywhere in the world. And I just got to a place where I was lonely, and I just didn't want to do it all alone. I realized there was some serious healing I needed to go through in order to get to a place where I could be in a healthy, serious relationship because I had a lot of trauma and scars. So I just committed to working on those things and getting healthy."
Though Hailey accepted Justin amongst his personal struggles, there was still work he needed to do for himself. "Even when we got married, there was still a lot of damage and hurt that I still needed to work through, but you've seen my heart through it all," he added.
Hailey then chimed in and said that she never had any intention of leaving Justin to deal with his mental health and trauma on his own. "I was in it. I made a decision," she said. "I know for a fact that I've loved this person for a very long time and now would not be the time to give up on him. I just wouldn't do that to him. Imagine abandoning somebody in the middle of the worst time of their life, potentially. I'm not that type of a person. So I was going to stick it out no matter what the outcome was going to be."
Justin and Hailey tied the knot in 2018, but before then, the couple discussed their major life decisions. "We always had so many conversations about, 'What were our goals? Where did we want to end up at a certain age?'" Hailey added. "We always talked about wanting to be married and be young, and have a young family, and have kids young."
Babies appear to be on the brain for the Biebers -- in his Amazon Prime documentary, Justin Bieber: Our World, which premiered in October, Justin said he ideally wanted a bundle of joy by the end of the year. "My intention for 2021 is to continue to set goals and have fun while doing them," he said. "Make sure I put my family first. And, hopefully, we squish out a little nugget." Hailey didn't oppose the idea, but Justin made sure to let his wife know the timing of it is in her hands: "It's up to you, babe," he added.
The singer recently sang about the impact Hailey has had on him on Justice (The Complete Edition) in a track titled "Hailey." Justin sings "Had a dream, I was high/ Holdin' on to the sky/ But I heard your voice and stopped myself from fallin"' on the first verse. The original version of Justice charted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
