It might seem like Justin Bieber had the perfect childhood as a rising star.
However, according to Hailey Bieber, the truth is less straightforward. During her Vogue India interview, Hailey talked about her husband, specifically mentioning how their childhoods compared. And, according to her, there are some definite downsides to growing up in the spotlight.

The Vogue India cover star explained that the "Sorry" singer had a much "crazier" childhood than she ever did despite her early experiences with fame.
She told the outlet, "Of course, I knew my father was an actor and he was famous to an extent, but if I was to compare how I grew up to how Justin did, he’s had a way crazier 'famous' experience really young."
She continued, "I got to grow up and get my driver’s license and really be normal until the past three years of my life."
Bieber himself has spoken about the challenges of being in the spotlight from such a young age.
In September 2019, he wrote a candid Instagram post. In it, he wrote, "Have u [sic] noticed the statistics of child stars and the outcome of their life?"
"There is an insane pressure and responsibility put on a child who’s [sic] brain, emotions, frontal lobes (decision making) aren’t developed yet..."
Despite their very different upbringings and adolescent experiences, the couple seems stronger than ever with their two year anniversary coming up in September.
In one of Justin's recent Instagram posts, he practically gushed over his wife, writing, "so grateful to be making these memories with the love of my life."
Hailey seems to be just as happy and loved up. For Justin's March birthday, the model wrote, "happy birthday best friend. thank you for putting a smile on my face every single day. I love you."
