Justin Bieber's mental health was allegedly a factor that his wife, Hailey Bieber, had considered before having children.

An OK Magazine source has revealed that Justin's mental health struggles were difficult for Hailey - which is why she had to wait for her partner to be in a better condition before they tried to be pregnant.

"He's a lot clingier, while she's always been more emotionally mature and able to see things in a clearer way," the source divulged. The insider also noted that things got difficult after rumors of their divorce emerged.

"They got married so young and weren't emotionally equipped to deal with it," the source explained. "It was hard. Divorce seemed to be their only way out. Hailey didn't want to bring a child into their world until things were more stable."

Things didn't fare well for the couple in 2022 when Hailey suffered a ministroke, and Justin was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome.

According to the source, Justin had wanted kids from the beginning of their marriage. However, he stopped pushing Hailey and making her feel guilty, noting that Justin's realizations prompted things to turn around. The source also added that they relied on their faith during this stressful period.

"They sought the advice of their pastor and got some much-needed therapy," the source confirmed. Since announcing their pregnancy on Instagram, the power couple are in a better place.

"Now that Hailey is pregnant with their first child and their marriage is in good shape, the lovebirds are overjoyed," the insider added. "They're having so much fun. Everything revolves around Hailey. Justin's finally getting the family he always wanted."

Hailey and Justin have since expressed their desire to have children and to start their own family. Speaking to The Sunday Times in May 2023, Hailey revealed that she wants kids so "bad," but she's "scared."

"It's enough that people say things about my husband or my friends. I can't imagine having to confront people saying things about a child," she added. "We can only do the best we can to raise them. As long as they feel loved and safe."

Conversely, Justin spoke about having a "tribe" in a 2020 interview at The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

"I am going to have as many as Hailey is wishing to push out," Justin said about having children at the time. "I'd love to have myself a little tribe, but yeah, it's her body and whatever she wants to do."
