Hailey Bieber may be weighing in on her husband’s recent spree of alarming behavior.
We say “may be” because her message is veiled at best.
The cryptic post begins with “cry me a river” and becomes even less sympathetic as it continues.
After Justin’s recent outbursts and his apparent Mother’s Day shade, who could blame her?

On Tuesday, May 13, Hailey Bieber took to her Instagram Story to share a note — one seemingly from her childhood.
The message, scrawled across a page of a notebook, reads: “Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over it.”
Despite the lack of a serial comma, that is a good line! And she had a little modern addition to add.

Some outlets have inexplicably reported Hailey as having written “relatable” in text atop the photo of her old notebook.
(She also showed the cover of the notebook, which she had labeled as “Hailey Baldwin” and apparently “subject vary”)
However, what she actually wrote in the text was the word “relevant.”

Though Hailey met Justin Bieber when she was just a tween, the notebook likely dates back even further.
She could not possibly be talking about her now-husband in the notebook that, if we had to hazard a guess, is in the ballpark of 20 years old.
But by writing that it is “relevant” today, she has many people speculating that Hailey intends for this old message to be a veiled reference to her husband’s recent string of behavior.

In recent months, Justin was seemingly unfollowed by his wife on Instagram.
He has repeatedly, in his own media and in posts by others, appeared to smoke from a bong. While there is no moral issue with this, his own history of substance abuse has fans concerned.
The fact that he’s posting these videos like an edgy 20-year-old with something to prove when he’s a grown father in his 30s isn’t exactly reassuring people, either.

To top it all off, Justin has posted multiple bizarre statements and has reportedly shuffled his social circle around. (According to one former friend, he is in a cult)
How does Hailey Bieber feel about all of this?
Maybe her cryptic message is about exactly this? But it’s also possible that she’s not addressing fan worries about her husband — not directly or indirectly. She sees more of him than the rest of us do, after all.

How is the message ‘relevant’ now, and to whom?
