Hailey Bieber has admitted she thought she might ‘die’ as she opened up about her son Jack Blues’ traumatic labour last year.

The model, 28, welcomed her only child with husband Justin Bieber, 31, in August 2024, but experienced some ‘scary’ complications during the birth.

Despite prepping for nine months in which she exercised, worked on her pelvic floor and felt ‘physically stronger’ than ever before, Hailey found herself going through a very tough labour, with the stunner admitting in a candid new interview that giving birth was ‘the hardest thing I’ve ever done’.  

Speaking for the first time about the birth, Hailey told Vogue: ‘That s**t was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing.’

Hailey began leaking amniotic fluid at 39 weeks and had to be induced, with the star given medication to bring on contractions while a special balloon was placed inside her uterus to help dilate her.

However, while she eventually welcomed her boy after 18 hours, her troubles continued as she then experienced a postpartum hemorrhage, with Hailey sadly admitting that the thought had crossed her mind that she wouldn’t survive the ordeal.

Hailey found herself going through a very tough labour, with the stunner admitting in a candid new interview that giving birth was ‘the hardest thing I’ve ever done’

On the fact that death could be a result of this complication if not treated quickly, which she told was ‘a little bit scary’, Hailey shared: ‘I trust my doctor with my life. And so I had peace that I knew she would never let anything happen to me. But I was bleeding really badly, and people die, and the thought crosses your mind.’

While she was overjoyed to finally bring her baby home safe and sound, Hailey told how she had to get used to her postpartum figure, admitting that she had to ‘give herself some grace’ over her body not ‘bouncing back’.

She noted how her hips are wider and her boob were bigger but has since accepted that her body is ‘not the same body that it was before’.

Meanwhile, during the candid interview, Hailey told of her ‘difficulty’ at coping with the ‘new version of herself’, while facing rumours surrounding her marriage to singer Justin.

Fans have expressed concern for the couple due to their stony-faced public appearances, and Hailey’s famous friends have allegedly urged her to leave the singer due to his ‘unacceptable’ behavior.

Addressing the difficulty, she shared: ‘Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I’ve ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult… And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, “They’re getting divorced” and “They’re this” and “They’re not happy”: It is such a mindf**k. I cannot even begin to explain it. It’s a crazy life to live.’

Hailey’s words comes after she didn’t look at all pleased by her husband Justin’s outburst when they cheered on his Toronto Maple Leafs as they battled the Florida Panthers in Game 7 of the NHL Eastern Conference Semifinals.  

Her husband Justin, whom fans noted looked particularly gaunt on social media, gushed about his love for the Maple Leafs on social media, but his team ended up losing the game on Sunday night in a disappointing 6–1 result.

The agitated singer could be seen banging on the tempered glᴀss separating his and Hailey’s front-row seats from the ice as he appeared to try to get the attention of the Maple Leafs and their coaching staff.

Hailey looked particularly upset by the shocking outburst from her vantage point next to the 31-year-old pop superstar.

She gazed forward awkwardly, rather than looking over at her overheated husband, though she raised a hand in midair as if to try to comfort or shush Justin.

The mortifying display was glimpsed by others in their vicinity, including spectators sitting next to them and members of the team and staff, who gazed back at Justin from the other side of the protective barrier. 

In another pH๏τo, Justin tensely leaned forward with his sunglᴀsses covering his eyes while Hailey displayed a stone-faced expression.

Despite the couple’s awkward interactions at the hockey game, they managed to put on sweet displays at other times.

In pH๏τos posted to the National Hockey League’s Instagram account, Justin — who was reportedly ‘on the verge of financial collapse’ before selling his song catalogue in recent years — could be seen sitting in the front row at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena as he wrapped an arm around Hailey while showing off an extreme smile.

‘@haileybieber & @justinbieber are in the house tonight cheering on the @mapleleafs!🙌🏼 #StanleyCup #Game7,’ read the NHL’s Instagram caption.

Justin was unmissable in a bright jacket with vertical stripes of velvet coral and ribbed orange fabric.

He paired the zip-up item with a furry beige hat featuring a quilted pattern, and he covered his eyes with a shiny pair of slim black sunglᴀsses.

The Sorry singer appeared to be particularly gaunt and showed the heavy lines of his face as he bared his teeth in a smile for the camera.

Justin’s wife Hailey sat just behind the tempered glᴀss protecting fans from flying pucks (and hockey players), and Justin appeared to be gesturing down at the players on the bench just in front of them. 

His wife also supported the Maple Leafs by cutting a striking figure in an oversize blue, black and white Maple Leafs jacket.

She appeared to wear a black low-cut tank top that highlighted her cleavage under her jacket, and she paired it with black pants 

Hailey could be see facing forward awkwardly as Justin began banging on the glᴀss at one point to get the team’s attention.
