Hailey Bieber may have hid her pregnancy for six months before announcing it to the world, a source has claimed.
On Thursday, Justin Bieber and his wife shared the exciting news on Instagram by posting a sweet video and some photos shot during their vow renewal in Hawaii. Hundreds of thousands of people congratulated the couple, who tied the knot in 2018.
