Hailey Bieber surprised fans with a risqué post featuring her husband Justin Bieber, as speculation mounts about his relationship with controversial rap mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
The 27-year-old model, who welcomed their son Jack Blues with Justin in August, shared on Instagram a throwback photo of the 30-year-old pop star sticking both middle fingers in the air.
Justin was shirtless and wearing board shorts, as Hailey captioned the playful photo, “mood.”
His past relationship with Diddy has come under scrutiny in recent weeks, with resurfaced videos showing a then 15-year-old Bieber spending “48 hours with Diddy,” while disturbing allegations against the Bad Boy Records founder continue to surface.
Hailey’s post comes just days after she stepped out in Hollywood with her best friend, Kendall Jenner, taking a break from recent criticism and adjusting to her new role as a mother.

She appeared in good spirits as she and the 28-year-old reality star headed to a sushi restaurant for a relaxing getaway.
Dressed in a cozy gray cardigan, the beauty pulled her sandy blonde hair back into a sleek bun and accessorized with Le Specs sunglasses as she walked into Sushi Park in West Hollywood.
Kendall followed closely behind in a black trench coat and showed off her freshly dyed platinum hair. Both friends kept a low profile and wore sunglasses as they walked inside.
The outing comes amid reports that Justin is determined to block growing rumors about his connection to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, choosing to focus on his role as a new father.
Combs, 54, was arrested in New York last month on charges of coercion and abuse.
Following the charges, Justin’s close relationship with the rapper has come under scrutiny in the past, with videos resurfacing showing a 15-year-old Bieber spending “48 hours with Diddy” and partying together.
Bieber has not publicly addressed the situation, but fans have expressed concern about his noticeably “skinny” appearance.
Sources now tell DailyMail.com that the singer feels he has no one to talk to Diddy Revelations and ‘sail these waters alone’.

“Justin feels like there’s no one he can talk to who understands, and honestly, he doesn’t even fully understand,” the insider explained. “He was a child.”
The source added that the fallout has to do with his current struggle to be a good parent, not having had the best example from his own father, Jeremy Bieber.
“Justin is stressed out right now,” the insider continued. “He has a son and is trying to be a good father without having anything to indicate what a good father is.”
Speaking about the vulnerable singer’s emotional state, the source added: ‘He’s navigating these waters alone and everyone is worried that if Hailey shows any effort in becoming a mother for the first time, it will be incredibly difficult for Justin.
“Diddy couldn’t have happened at a worse time, as he tries to experience the joy of fatherhood, with the pain of having to deal with it all.”
It was only weeks before Combs was accused of directing female victims and male sex workers to perform drugged, sometimes days-long sexual performances called “Freak Offs.”
According to the indictment, he allegedly used violence, threats and coercion to get the women to interact with male sex workers in the “Freak Offs,” described as “elaborate and produced sex performances” arranged and directed by Combs while he masturbated and often I recorded them.
The indictment further stated that some “Freak Offs” would last for days, requiring Combs and victims to be given IV fluids to recover from the exertion and drug use.
Diddy pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and was denied bail, despite his legal team’s request that he be released on $50 million and be electronically monitored.
Bieber was just a kid when he struck up a friendship with Combs, and the singer recently featured on the rapper’s song Moment, which appeared on his 2023 album The Love Album: Off the Grid.
After the album’s release last October, Bieber reflected on his first meeting with Combs.
“I remember going to my brother Diddy’s office to pitch him a song I wrote for him when I was 14,” he wrote on Instagram. “Unfortunately the song was crap haha and it would be a hard no from him.”
He continued, “Fast forward to a few years ago, Puff asked if I wanted to freestyle something for his upcoming love album. Wild full circle moment, I love you @diddy.”

An insider previously revealed to DailyMail.com that Bieber deeply regrets working with the disgraced mogul last year, and would never have done so had he known about the allegations that have since come to light have come.
They continued, “He was on a long break from Diddy when he believed most of this was happening and he had distanced himself from him.
“He was on Diddy’s most recent album, and if he had known all this, there’s no way he would have done it.”
In March, old clips of Bieber and Combs resurfaced shortly after Homeland Security raided the music mogul’s properties in Miami and Los Angeles.
In one video, Combs stood next to the young pop sensation, 15, as he told the camera, “He has 48 hours with Diddy, where we hang out and what we do we can’t really reveal.
“But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream.”
The hip-hop star added, “I got custody of him. He signed with Usher and I had legal custody of Usher when he made his first album.
“I have no legal custody of him [Bieber] but for the next forty-eight hours he’s with me and we’re going crazy.’
Creepy images of Combs and Bieber reappeared online for the first time after the rapper’s properties were raided earlier this year as part of the ongoing sex trafficking investigation
Bieber, wearing a black baseball cap and purple shirt, smiles and looks up at Combs throughout the video, making little comments like “yeah” and “totally crazy.”
The video was posted on social media and sparked an outpouring of criticism and concern.
In another resurfaced clip, the rapper was seen asking a 16-year-old Bieber why he hadn’t talked to him as much.
‘What’s up man, are you okay? Selling out arenas and stuff?’ Combs asked the youngster.
“You’re starting to act different, aren’t you?” You haven’t called me or hung out like you used to.”
Bieber seemed concerned as he responded to his musical colleague.
“I mean, you’ve been trying to contact me this whole time… and what not… but you never got my number,” he said. “I’m going to tell you my number.”

Another insider previously revealed to DailyMail.com that Bieber is completely “overwhelmed” by the harrowing allegations and is struggling to understand them – especially considering he worked with Combs less than a year ago.
The source said of the fragile singer: ‘Bieber is so disturbed by the Diddy news and doesn’t want to process or discuss it, so he has shut down.
“So many of the people who helped make him who he is were very close to Diddy and it completely messed him up.
“Justin hasn’t responded to this since the home invasions. He’s not going to do that.’
