Jessica Biel shined on the red carpet at the Academy Museum Gala over the weekend, wearing a breathtaking black one-sleeve gown from Balmain, crafted by Olivier Rousteing. The Candy star’s dress highlighted the French luxury brand’s signature pagoda shoulder design, dazzled with crystal rhinestones.
These sparkly pieces also emphasized the frock’s thigh-high slit, perfectly accentuating Biel’s toned, sculpted legs. Completing her look, the 7th Heaven actress, 42, wore black pointed-toe heels adorned with silver details and carried an elegant black clutch. The mom of two attended the event alone, without her husband, Justin Timberlake.

As for her glam for the October 19th event, the Sinner alum wore her chic chin-length bob down, parted in the center and styled sleek-straight. As she attended the soirée at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, Biel looked radiant. This comes amid rumors that she and hubby Timberlake, 43, are facing a rough patch.
According to a family insider who spoke with People, the "Selfish" singer has been doing "everything he can" to make amends with his wife, Biel, since his DWI arrest on June 18th. However, some fans think Biel (who shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4, with Timberlake) is requiring further efforts from the Grammy winner, as she attended this glamorous event solo.
The couple were "not happy about" Timberlake's headline-making arrest, the tipster noted, and they have "been very busy working" and prioritizing "family time when they're off." Biel and Timberlake tied the knot in 2012, as the source explained: "They've been married for a long time,"
They continued: "they have to work on their marriage like most couples." The informant mentioned that despite the chaotic period, Biel and Timberlake have remained engrossed in their professional lives.
The "Cry Me a River" crooner is advancing with his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, while Biel has been immersed in filming consecutive projects, including The Better Sister for Amazon.
The insider said that "being working parents is never easy," but "they're both relieved that it's in the past."
They also noted that Timberlake and Biel "are both committed to staying married." They went on: "Jess thinks he's a wonderful dad. They're a great team."
