After wife Hailey mysteriously unfollowed him on social media, Justin Bieber has seemingly attempted to squash all speculation of trouble in paradise.
Taking to Instagram last night (31 March), the Canadian singer appeared to brush off the hot gossip by sharing a particularly insightful snap on his Story. Justin's move came after Rhode boss Hailey responded to the 'controversy' herself.
For those out of the loop, just months after the couple were plagued speculation that their marriage was in trouble when Hailey firstly unfollowed her musician beau, fans noticed yesterday that she'd unfollowed him again.

It was revealed back in January that the first 'unfollowing spree' was caused by hacked accounts.
Following the latest controversy, some eagle-eyed followers spotted that mother-of-one Hailey - who shares seven-month-old son Jack with Justin - had re-posted a TikTok about a 'terrible therapist'.
The video was captioned: "I'd be a terrible therapist [because] I'd want to see a pic of the person you're crying about."

The move prompted some fans to freak out that the two had allegedly called it quits, while others suggested that a glitch could have shown Hailey unfollowing Justin, caused by the singer deactivating his personal Instagram account, before later restoring it.
One fan said on the video-sharing app: "She didn't, it looks like everyone unfollowed Justin because he deactivated [his account] for 7 mins, It's normal now."
Another added: "She didn't, when someone deactivates it takes a while for them to show up in someone's following."
28-year-old Hailey was forced to shut down talk of a break up behind the scenes, confirming in an Instagram comment: "It's a glitch. Didn't unfollow him."

"Hope this helps!" she added.
The 'Baby' hit-maker, has seemingly since responded as well, sharing a photo alongside his wife on his Instagram Story.
In the latest upload, the couple - who tied the knot in September 2018 - could be seen sitting side-by-side.

While 31-year-old Justin could be seen wearing a hoodie, the top of which obscured his face, Hailey appeared to go incognito by donning a navy cap.
The pair both rocked a pair of sunglasses, and held their middle fingers up on both hands.
Justin had shared the husband-wife snap with Jacquees' 'You' over the top.
The apparent need for the pair to constantly reassure their fans hasn't gone unnoticed by some, with one taking to Reddit to admit: "I feel bad for all this hate they keep getting.

"They have been married for half a decade, they have a young child. Haters need to leave them alone."
Someone else took a different look at the unfollowing spree, however, adding: "They clearly are trolling at this point and I love that for them - they don’t owe these people anything!!!"
