Justin Timberlake's recent DWI arrest may have jeopardized his and Jessica Biel's efforts to save their marriage. The two are already in a rocky place, even before the arrest. They were striving so hard to fix their issues, but Timberlake's drinking might have put all their progress to waste.
The couple reportedly underwent multiple rounds of counseling over the past five years to address ongoing relationship challenges exacerbated by a cheating scandal and other issues.
According to a source from RadarOnline.com, Biel feels they have made little progress despite their efforts. "They're right back where they started," the insider shared, reflecting on the strain caused by past infidelities and recent events.
Friends close to the couple have expressed concern that Biel may be reaching her breaking point. "Her friends think she's married to a loser," one insider remarked, noting their frustration with Justin's recurring struggles.
The source cited Timberlake's past cheating rumors, including a 2019 incident with co-star Alisha Wainwright, as ongoing points of contention.
Despite Timberlake's public apologies and attempts to mend their relationship, his recent arrest has served as a stark wake-up call.
"But the arrest was a wake-up call: It's time for her to realize she can't do it alone," the source claimed, adding, "If he keeps going down this path, their marriage will be over."
Recently, Biel demonstrated support by attending Justin's concert at Madison Square Garden just a week after his arrest.
The 42-year-old actress was spotted enjoying the music while dancing in a gray top, black jeans, and a black baseball cap.
In May, Biel acknowledged that their relationship remains a "work in progress," especially with their hectic schedules.
Speaking on The View, she highlighted the challenges of balancing their careers while staying connected with their sons, Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4, through virtual means when apart.
In other news, Justin Timberlake appears ready to move past his recent legal troubles, as he addressed the incident onstage again and injected humor into the situation.
During a concert in Boston on Saturday night, the singer-songwriter seemed to poke fun at his recent DWI arrest. Video footage capturing the moment shows JT engaging with the audience, initially setting up a question about attendees' concert experience. However, as reported by TMZ, he quickly shifted gears, asking humorously if there was "anyone here tonight that is driving."
The remark elicited an enthusiastic response from the crowd, with laughter and cheers indicating they appreciated the lighthearted approach. Justin clarified that he was joking before continuing to interact with fans, inquiring who was attending his show for the first time and who were longtime Timberlake fans.
While the audience appreciated the joke, some netizens did not, claiming it was just done in poor taste and uncaring of DWI victims.
