Hailey Bieber gave her husband, Justin Bieber, a rare shout-out while accepting an award for her Rhode beauty line.

On Thursday, Hailey, 28, was named beauty innovator of the year at the 2025 Daily Front Row Fashion Los Angeles Awards.

Donning a strapless blue dress and black pumps, the model walked up to the podium and spoke for several minutes about her brand, which she described as “a feeling,” “a lifestyle,” “a place” and “a world that is open to everyone and anyone that identifies with it.”

After thanking several industry folks, Hailey concluded her speech, “And lastly, I wanna thank my husband for supporting this dream of mine from the beginning and for always cheering me on.”

Notably, Justin — with whom she shares 8-month-old son Jack — was not at the event. However, the couple was photographed having breakfast together in Venice Beach, Calif., earlier in the day.

Just before Hailey thanked Justin in her speech, the pop superstar, 31, gave his wife a shout-out on Instagram while attempting to silence split speculation.

“Honestly if I was u, it would be hard not to be jealous of me and Hailey going brazzzzyy,” he wrote on his Instagram Story.

“It’s really up for us and that’s understandable why people can’t stand it.”

Justin has sparked concern amongst his fans with bizarre behavior that seemed to start after Jack was born last fall.

The “Baby” singer’s name has also been brought up numerous times in relation to Sean “Diddy” Combs, whose sex trafficking trial is set to begin in just over a week.

Several videos have resurfaced of a young Justin hanging out with Combs in the early days of his career, with many fans online arguing that the rapper taking him under his wing was “inappropriate.” The “Sorry” singer has yet to publicly comment on the allegations made against Combs.

“Justin is in a hard place mentally right now,” a source shared in October 2024. “He has such a history with Diddy, and the allegations against him have been hard to process.”
