Although being two of the most recognized names around the world, Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber have established a relationship with fans by sharing the unfiltered parts of their lives, leading them to feel more relatable.
Hailey is often open about her personal struggles with mental health as well as physical health and, most recently, Justin followed.
Last week Justin opened about a recent health condition that forced him to cancel two concerts he had scheduled in Toronto, Canada. The singer was set to perform at the Scotiobank Arena in downtown Toronto on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, after being diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, a virus that has left him with a form of facial paralysis, he had no choice but to reschedule the shows.
Still in recovery, Justin had to cancel shows in New York following his Canada and Washington DC cancellations. Hailey has been showing love and support for her husband and made an appearance on Good Morning America to talk about his progress.
The Road To Recovery
While many fans wish that Justin was on the road on tour, instead he's on the road to recovery, to then get back on tour. Hailey recently shared updates on her husbands conditions and where's at.
During her guest appearance on Good Morning America, the model shared, "He's doing really well. He is getting better every single day. He's feeling a lot better." Hailey continued, "Obviously it was just a very scary and random situation to happen. But he's gonna be totally okay. And, I'm just grateful that he's fine."

She also expressed her appreciation for everyone who has been sending love to the singer stating, "The support has been really amazing just from fans, friends family. Every single person has sent well wishes, advice, and recommendations. It's actually been really amazing."
Justin Shares His Condition On Instagram
Bieber's video on Instagram gave fans an obvious look at his inability to perform.
He stated in the clip, "As you can see, this eye is not blinking,” he said on Instagram. “I can't smile on this side of my face…there's full paralysis in the center of my face.”
He continued, "So for those frustrated by my cancellations of the next shows, I'm just physically, obviously, incapable of doing them.”
The singer explained that this is his body's reaction to stress and telling him to "slow down," hoping that fans can understand.
Bieber shared with his followers, "This is pretty serious as you can see. I wish this wasn't the case. It's time to just rest and relax and get back to 100 percent so that I can do what I was born to do.”
He is doing what he can to get back on stage as soon as possible such as facial exercises but, he's unsure how long it will take him to heal.
Hailey Stays Strong Throughout Her Own Health Battles
Back in April, Hailey opened up to her Instagram followers about an event that occurred while having breakfast with Justin. She began by saying, "I'm making this video because I wanted to tell the story in my own words of just where I've been at health-wise for the last month and kind of what I've gone through and what the story is."
The model shared, "I had a very scary incident on March 10th. Basically I was sitting at breakfast with my husband. Having a normal day, a normal conversation. We were in the middle of talking. And, all of the sudden I felt this really weird sensation that kind of like traveled down my arm from my shoulder all the way down to my fingertips and it made my fingertips feel really numb and weird."
She revealed that Justin noticed something was wrong and asked if she was okay, however, she was unable to respond. Hailey explained that everything occurring had her thinking that she was having a stroke – right side of face drooping, inability to speak.
The model said, "definitely the scariest moment of my life. I had so many things running through my head. The number one thing being 'I'm having a stroke. I'm really scared. I don't know what's going on. I don't know why this is happening. Am I gonna have permanent issues from this?'"
From breakfast, the model and the singer went back to their home and waited for an ambulance to come. She explained that within that time things began to improve. "By the time I got to the emergency room, I was pretty much back to normal. Wasn't having any issues with my face or my arm," shared Hailey.
After going through tests Hailey was told that she suffered a small blood clot in her brain which was labeled and categorized as a TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack). She shared that she had almost every possible test done to make sure things were okay.
Further tests were done later one at UCLA where they found a PFO (Patent Foramen Ovale), which basically means that she has a hole in her heart. "They actually found that I have a grade 5 PFO which is the highest grade that you can have. So mine was fairly large." She went on to share, "The conclusion was that I had a blood clot that traveled into my heart, " shared Hailey. She continued, "My blood clot actually escaped through the hole in my heart and it traveled to my brain and that is why I suffered a TIA."
Mrs. Bieber got a procedure done to close the hole and not have to worry about experiencing another scary situation like this. She's shared that it went well and she's been in good health since.
Both Bieber's have been on quite the journey with their physical health but it seems as though their support and love for one another is keeping them strong throughout the time of it all.
Wishing a well recovery for Justin now!
