As his erratic behavior continues, Justin Bieber loses more of his inner circle. In recent months, fans have been crying out in concern over the singer, speculating he is getting hooked on drugs. However, Bieber has met their plea with trolling, continuing to share disturbing videos. Now, it seems those close to him can’t keep up anymore.
Justin Bieber’s longtime assistant Mateo Caldas has reportedly called it quits. He is the latest staff member in the Canadian singer to say goodbye. Cardas, who doubled as an estate agent, has been working with the Biebers since 2018, even winning awards for his exemplary work ethic. However, he is now changing direction and pursuing a career in acting, The Sun reports. An insider confirmed to the publication that Cardas’ exit comes at a dynamic time for the Never Say Never singer, who recently became a father.
“Justin’s life has changed a lot and he wants to be careful who he has around him on a day-to-day basis, he sometimes finds it hard to trust.”
The source continued, “He’s also working a lot less with bodyguards and drivers, preferring to drive him and Hailey himself on outings.” As part of this change, Justin has cut contact with his regular bodyguards, Keith Gibbs and Eric Johnson, in months.
Justin Bieber’s Assistant Called An ‘Active Facilitator’
The timing of Cardas’s resignation raises eyebrows. Weeks ago, Justin’s rep revealed he ended “several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him” as part of having a “transformative” year. Was Cardas part of those relationships?
While the representative’s statement rings true, he also denied the Peaches singer using drugs. He slammed reports of substance use as “exhausting and pitiful,” adding that “despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.” Unfortunately, Justin has done little to dispel the damaging narrative. In the space of a week, the 31-year-old was seen rapping about being high and smoking marijuana in a video. Earlier this week, the two-time Grammy winner posted photos of him smoking a bong while riding a bicycle. Fans are no longer sure what to believe. They don’t know who is good or bad for Justin’s mental health.
“Probably his most active facilitator. This circle of so-called friends needs to go,” one comment read.
“This guy is a total tool. I know someone who has worked with him on a short-term basis, and I’m told he is a REAL weirdo,” a second fan alleged.
“Smart move. He doesn’t want a dead body on his hands,” a third fan said of Cardas’ exit.
“Doesn’t want to defend him on the Ditty investigation coming his way soon,” a remark about Justin’s disgraced mentor, Diddy, read.
With each passing day, the optics continue to worsen for Justin Bieber. Losing a longtime personal assistant speaks to more.
