Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin attend the 2021 Met Gala Celebrating in America: A Lexicon of Fashion at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Sept. 13, 2021 in New York City.
Ray Tamarra/GC ImagesThat’s what love is! Justin Bieber marked wife Hailey Bieber’s 25th birthday on Monday (Nov. 25) with a series of touching posts on social media.
“To my beloved birthday squish. My heart belongs to you. My eyes belong to you, my lips belong to you. I am yours. I am so blessed to be yours,” the pop star tweeted alongside a number of adorably PDA-filled photos of the couple scuba diving on a tropical getaway.
He added: “You are my forever. Life has never made more sense until you became my wife. I will never stop loving you, I will never stop holding you, and I will never stop protecting you. You my queen are more than enough for me and I will spend everyday making you feel like the queen that you are. As your grandma would say in her Portuguese accent ‘happy bursday baby’ love you until the end of time and then after that. :).”
Both of Bieber’s most recent studio efforts – 2020’s Changes and 2021’s Justice – have spelled out his devotion to his model wife, including on lovestruck singles like “Yummy,” “Intentions,” “Holy,” “Anyone” and more.
While the singer is busy prepping for his upcoming Justice World Tour, he most recently teamed up with Bryson Tiller and Poo Bear for the former’s new holiday single “Lonely Christmas.”
Bieber also dipped into his Canadian roots earlier this month thanks to a delicious partnership with Tim Hortons on his new Timbiebs Timbits donut holes, which will hit locations throughout the U.S. and Canada beginning Nov. 29.

Fontaines D.C. have teamed up with Rosalía for their new collaboration, Where Is Gone?.
The song features on the Irish rock band's forthcoming album, Dopamine Chamber, which arrives on Friday (16.10.26). For guitarist Carlos O’Connell, working with the Spanish superstar is particularly special because of his own Spanish roots.
He explained: “I’ve admired Rosalía ever since her debut album, which I thought was absolutely beautiful.
“What excited me most was the way she continued to preserve Spain's musical traditions, something that felt spiritually connected to what we've been trying to achieve with Irish music. Having roots in both countries, it's been really special to witness. "She's an artist who has continued to amaze me at every point in her career.”
Frontman Grian Chatten has also described the collaboration with Rosalía as one of the most memorable achievements of his career.
He revealed that he felt "humbled" when she agreed to lend her voice to the band's album.
Speaking to NPR, Grian said: “I've always felt there's something almost like a single big idea that I'm personally trying to communicate to the world before I get old and die, if that makes sense. There's one thing I think I'll spend my life trying to express. I have a feeling she has a similar outlook. … I mean, she's an amazing arranger, composer and lyricist. It means so much that she wanted to sing on something we'd put together. It's definitely one of the highlights of my career.”
Rosalía's links to Irish rock music extend beyond Fontaines D.C. She also offered inspiration and helped develop the Spanish lyrics for U2's The Mirror Maker (Rosalía), a track from their forthcoming album, Carnaval de Luz.
During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last week, she spoke about frontman Bono, saying: “I don't know him personally, but he sent me a text explaining that he was working on a new project and had written a song called The Mirror Maker."
Rosalía joked that Bono had invented a few words of his own.
She recalled telling him: “I wasn't sure what to make of it, but I told him he could create his own language if he wanted to.”
She described the opportunity to collaborate with the 66 year old music veteran as a real privilege.
She added: “Bono is a legend.
“It's amazing.”
Bono recently revealed that he was worried about seeming like a stalker when he reached out to Rosalía to ask whether he could name the song after her.
