Justin Bieber has come under fire for his latest Instagram post shared on Thursday that featured his baby boy Jack Blues.

The Peaches hitmaker, 31 – who recently put on a racy display with wife Hailey to celebrate her $1 billion Rhode deal – could be seen spending quality time with his infant son on a mountain getaway with a group of male friends.

In one frame, he gazed down adoringly at his son while relaxing on a porch.

In the following snap, he was in the same spot, smoking a roll-up with his friend but Jack was not pictured.

Still, the images sparked heated debate from his many followers, with some fearing he may have been smoking in the same vicinity as his son. 

Other fans were quick to jump to his defense, noting the baby was not pictured near him while he was smoking. 

One penned, ‘Don’t smoke in front of your kid,’ but fans replied by pointing out, ‘He wasn’t he was before the baby came outside’ and another added, ‘He’s not, it’s different moments clearly.’

An Instagram user also typed, ‘I hope you’re not smoking around Jack, Justin…,’ and one wrote, ‘Dude there is no way you have the baby around that smoke… be better like we know you can be.’ 

But another fan expressed, ‘Guys, the picture with the baby you can see Jacks feet on his leg. The picture of him smoking the baby is clearly NOT there.’ 

Another added, ‘Everyone in the comment section lets use our brains now, jack isn’t even pictured in the pH๏τos where he’s smoking. He didn’t smoke in front of Jack.’ 

‘You don’t see that man Smoking with his baby in NONE OF THESE PICS! y’all say anything for attention,’ one follower penned in the singer’s defense. 

In another picture, his son Jack was perched on top of his father’s shoulders as they grabbed a bit of fresh air outdoors. 

The performer kept it casual wearing a pair of loose-fitting black trousers as well as a comfy black hoodie. 

Another picture showed Bieber going shirtless and only donning a pair of blue shorts as his baby boy laid next to him. The little one’s tiny feet could be seen resting on Justin’s right leg.

A few candid snaps were taken of the singer and his friends as they ventured inside the establishment. At one point, the group shared a laugh while near an ᴀssortment of snacks. 

The star and his pals spent time outside as they took in the scenic setting and posed for a pH๏τo next to a golf cart – which was parked on a patch of grᴀss next to a barn.

Lastly, Justin was seen taking a stroll through some of the forest as blue sky stretched out above them. 

In the caption of the post, the music artist penned to his 294 million followers, ‘Gonna be a good summer.’ 

The Baby hitmaker welcomed Jack Blues last year in August with wife Hailey – although the model was not included in his Instagram carousel. 

It comes just one week after Justin faced backlash for his comments over Hailey’s recent Vogue cover in a shocking tirade. He claimed that he had cruelly told her once that she would never grace the cover of Vogue during a heated argument.

In a since-deleted caption, the singer had written: ‘Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight, I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue, Yikes I know, so mean, For some reason because I felt so disrespected I thought I gotta get even. 

‘Think as we mature we realize that we’re not helping anything by getting even, we’re honestly just prolonging what we really want which is intimacy and connection.’

Bieber continued, ‘So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn’t get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken.’ 

Justin has since taken down the original caption and instead replaced it with a shrugging emoji.

Earlier this week on Wednesday, he helped his wife celebrate her $1 billion Rhode deal with E.l.f Cosmetics. 

It was revealed that her skincare brand is being acquired by E.l.f. Cosmetics, but the mom-of-one will still serve as founder of the brand as well as Chief Creative Officer and Head of Innovation. 

He reposted the announcement to his main Instagram page and additionally uploaded a separate carousel of images which showed the couple cozying up together. 

Hailey was pictured flashing a big smile on her face as she leaned into her husband who placed his hands on her chest and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek.

That same day, the beauty was seen stepping out for a celebratory dinner in West Hollywood – but Justin noticeably did not join her.

Amin added, ‘We are excited by Rhode’s ability to break beauty barriers, fully aligning with e.l.f. Beauty’s vision to create a different kind of company. Rhode is a beautiful brand that we believe is ready for rocketship growth.’

Hailey also took to her own Instagram page to reflect on the business partnership and also gave a shout for the ‘support’ given to Rhode.

‘When I launched @rhode in 2022, I always had big dreams for the company, and the most important thing to me is to keep bringing rhode to more spaces, places, and faces globally.’

She continued, ‘So today I am so incredibly excited and proud to announce that we are partnering with e.l.f. Beauty as we step into this next chapter in the world of rhode.

‘I found a like-minded disruptor with a vision to be a different kind of company that believes in big ideas and innovation in the same way that I do and will help us continue to grow the brand.’
