Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel‘s marriage has reportedly reached a critical crossroads. The Cry Me A River singer may have finally pushed his wife to her breaking point. New split rumors are heating up, suggesting Jessica and Justin are on a break.
Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake celebrated 12 years of marriage in October. The former NSYNC star’s actions have tested his wife’s patience, but the couple has weathered the storms of drama and scandal that have plagued their relationship from the start.
Despite the challenges, the singer’s commitment to his marriage is evident. He admits that, at times, his eye has wandered, but his love of socializing and partying has led to poor decisions. However, since his arrest, he has promised Jessica he is a changed man. His transformation has not been easy, but he knows he is on thin ice with Jessica Biel and has a lot riding on his promise.
Justin has not had a great year, and it doesn’t look like things will change anytime soon. The singer’s luck has been on a downhill run since his June DWI arrest. Since then, he has been plagued with marital issues and injuries, resulting in cancelations of some of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour concert dates.
However, now it seems as if Justin Timberlake is facing more struggles, this time involving his personal life and marriage. Sources tell Radar Online that Justin’s arrest took a toll on his already fragile marriage with Jessica Biel. Now, it looks like the couple has made a huge decision regarding their relationship.
Jessica Biel & Justin Timberlake Take Time Apart
The Biel/Timberlake informant reveals that Justin has a full tour schedule for December, which will give Jessica a much-needed break from her troubled husband’s ongoing drama. The source claims that the busy actress and mother of two plans to take the time apart to reflect and focus on herself.
“She might go to one or two of his concerts to show she’s willing to support him, but privately, she’s relieved to have some space so she can take stock, catch up on her own projects, and see friends,” shared an insider. “Emotionally, it’ll be a relief for her to get away from all the drama.”
Those close to the couple feel they need this time apart and the space to work through their issues. The last year has been a real challenge. “Jessica actually needs some space right now for her own mental health,” stated the insider.
“She doesn’t want to divorce Justin, but she isn’t about to follow him around like a puppy dog, either. Meanwhile, Justin’s checking in with her daily, but it’s safe to say he’s feeling like he could use the time away, too.”
Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake hope to have some clarity as to where their relationship stands following the singer’s December tour schedule. The singer will wrap up the month on the 20th and likely head home to spend Christmas with Jessica and her sons, Silas and Phineas, before heading back out in 2025.
Most of the couple’s friends believe the time apart will do them good as long as Justin Timberlake controls the drama. Jessica has been more than patient and understanding. However, she has her limits. If any more issues with Justin erupt, it could be game over for the pair.
