Justin Bieber marked his first Father’s Day with a bold statement that got a playful jab from his wife, Hailey Bieber.
On Sunday, June 15, the 31-year-old pop star posted a black-and-white photo on Instagram, complete with a flipping-off emoji and a fiery caption: “I’m a dad that’s not to be fucked with.” It was one of several posts he shared to celebrate his first Father’s Day since he and Hailey welcomed their son, Jack Blues Bieber, in August last year.
Bieber’s post followed another tense moment with paparazzi, who tried to wish him a happy Father’s Day but got an entirely different response.
“Stop that,” he snapped at one of them. “I’m a real dad with a real family, and you’re really in front of my face. … We’re going to set boundaries with you today. … I’m not to be fucked with by any of you. … You don’t get to ask me questions.”
Bieber then told them to leave his private property and quickly exited the scene, making it clear he wasn’t in the mood for games.
Hailey Bieber couldn’t resist poking fun at her husband in the comments of his bold Father’s Day post, serving up a little payback for his Mother’s Day message.
Back in May, Justin stirred reactions by writing, “Love u moms but mothers day sucks ass” via Instagram’s notes feature. Hailey clapped back in the comment section of his latest post with a cheeky response of her own: “Father’s Day sucks ass.”
Justin Bieber also shared more moments from his first Father’s Day celebration, including a shot of himself posing with some of his gifts—one of which was a luxury Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch, valued at $38,000.
Another heartwarming post featured his wife, Hailey, and their son, Jack Blues Bieber, sitting together at a piano, capturing a sweet family moment.
Justin Bieber has been notably active on Instagram lately, but some of his recent behavior has raised eyebrows among fans concerned about his mental health.
He’s had several run-ins with paparazzi, visibly frustrated with their constant presence and intrusion. In one recent encounter, he told photographers he was tired of them crossing boundaries and invading his personal space.
Bieber also made headlines after posting a series of screenshots from a tense text exchange with a former friend, calling the person a “weirdo” and cutting ties over what he described as a lack of respect for his boundaries.
