Hailey Bieber honors a significant outing with her husband Justin Bieber, opting for an outfit that drew attention to her post-baby body weeks after welcoming her son Jack Blues. The model and her husband became first-time parents in August 2024, taking to Instagram to reveal the big news with the traditional shot of their baby’s fingers. Since then, the two have aced the parenting game, being hands-on with their son, mostly at the expense of their social lives. In recent weeks, Justin and Hailey have gradually embraced normalcy, making more public appearances and becoming more active on social media.
Their latest outing saw the couple attend church service in Los Angeles, attracting a slew of paparazzi. Hailey and Justin Bieber were photographed arriving at the church in their usual fashionable way. While the Baby crooner went shirtless wearing only an unzipped red hoodie and black pants paired with his furry Louis Vuitton boots, Hailey opted for a more conventional look. The model looked chic in her black t-shirt worn over blue baggy pants reminiscent of the iconic mom jeans known to conceal lower belly pooch. She threw on a long leopard-print jacket for added protection, holding a matching bag as she made her way through the awaiting paps.
While fashionable, Hailey Bieber’s multi-layered ensemble appeared like an obvious attempt to conceal her post-baby body. Celebrities have adopted similar getups for ages during their post-natal phase, so much so that it has become a mainstay in the world of female celebrity fashion. Justin Bieber’s wife, like most, embraced the mom jeans as a wardrobe staple long before having a baby. However, snaps from her recent LA outing suggest this time, the outfit choice was more about functionality than style.
In most of the photos, Hailey Bieber looked self-conscious as she alighted from her vehicle and strolled into the LA church, paces ahead of her husband. While her high-waisted mom jeans did a good job of concealing any potential tummy bulge below her belt line, Hailey proudly flaunted her post-baby body in a shot capturing her front view. Some photos captured Hailey from other angles, with her oversized jacket, giant shoulder bag, and hands keeping her postpartum tummy away from prying eyes.
According to Web MD, Postpartum belly is a normal occurrence among all moms resulting from stretched abdominal muscles during pregnancy. This tummy bulge often requires up to six weeks or longer to disappear, depending on how long it takes the uterus to fully contract.
However, unrealistic body standards set by modern celebrities often place new moms under pressure to achieve their post-pregnancy body within shorter periods. While most celebs have been criticized for portraying unrealistic bikini bodies soon after birth, stars like Jenna Dewan, Ashley Graham, Chrissy Teigen, and Halsey have openly celebrated their post-pregnancy transformation, dispelling the misguided myth that a woman’s body bounces back right after birth.
