Before the recent incident of Justin Timberlake being arrested for drunk driving in Sag Harbor, reports suggest that he and Jessica Biel were already facing challenges in their marriage.

A source revealed that the couple, who tied the knot in 2012, had sought marriage counseling on three separate occasions over five years due to continuous relationship issues and a previous cheating scandal.

A source close to the couple revealed Biel's belief that they are now facing a setback in their progress.

"They're right back where they started," an insider told Radar Online.

Close pals have brutally hinted that the A Kind of Murder actress could be contemplating a future without the father of her two children if he doesn't make some changes.

"Her friends think she's married to a loser and hate that so much of her life is taken up with trying to get [Timberlake] to stay on the straight and narrow."

"But the arrest was a wake-up call: It's time for her to realize she can't do it alone. If he keeps going down this path, their marriage will be over."

Reportedly, a cloud of speculation surrounds Timberlake about his past infidelity, causing Biel's circle of friends to express their apprehensions.

A source told In Touch, "He just can't escape this 'cheater' label, and it upset [Biel] every time. Her friends fear he'll break her heart again: Do cheaters ever change?"

It was also indicated that the recent series of events could serve as a pivotal moment for the "Cry Me A River" singer.

"Those close to her feel like she's stuck in a dead-end relationship and are concerned about how much energy she's devoting to keeping Justin on the right path."

"But the arrest was a wake-up call: It's time for her to realize she can't do it alone. If he keeps going down this path, their marriage will be over."

Despite facing accusations, Timberlake adamantly refutes the claims of being drunk, insisting that he consumed only a single martini before departing the bar that evening. This claim is supported by a bartender who attested to serving him. The employee informed People magazine that the "SexyBack" singer was served one drink, emphasizing that if he did get more than one drink, it wasn't at The American Hotel.

Following his arrest, speculation arose when Biel appeared in public without her wedding ring, leading to gossip about the state of her marriage. Despite this, she surprised everyone by appearing at one of her husband's performances, enthusiastically singing along with the audience.
