Justin Bieber, a 30-year-old pop star, has been absent from the spotlight, for the most part, over recent months, leading to worry within his inner circles. His noticeable lack of socializing and public appearances has prompted friends to suspect deeper problems.
A Shift in Behavior
Bieber has scaled back his public appearances in recent months. His friends initially made allowances for this because he was a new father. But insiders now suggest that there could be more behind his staying out of the public eye. According to an insider, “Everyone thought his lack of socializing was because he was embracing being a dad, but now those close to him are concerned it’s a deeper issue.”
Impact of External Factors
Bieber’s exit comes amid a number of other external stress-related factors. His former mentor, Sean “Diddy” Combs, has bigger issues as he is now facing racketeering and sex trafficking charges. This situation has reportedly shaken Bieber and left him more isolated. At the same time, it has faced financial difficulties. Bieber is rumored to be taking legal action against former managers who mismanaged his $300 million fortune.
Mental Health Concerns
Justin has previously spoken out about his mental health, grappling with depression and anxiety. Concerns had been rekindled among his inner circle recently due to his behavior. A separate source added, “He seems to be more troubled than ever.” Friends are concerned his isolation now could be a sign of a relapse.
Family Life and Public Perception
But aside from those issues, Bieber and his wife Hailey were busy celebrating their son Jack’s first Halloween in a family costume inspired by Disney’s Kim Possible just a few days prior. This event, at least in public, was a nice family moment. But behind closed doors, insiders say Bieber’s inability to socialize is still a major issue.
