Bieber shared an Instagram story where he said that someone had managed to gain access to his account and unfollow Hailey. “Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife," he wrote over a white background. 

"S--- is getting suss out here."

The story was shared earlier today and has now been deleted. It follows various photos shared on his stories that celebrated his winter with Hailey, with the two sharing a look at their snowy vacation. 

The posts follow various months where the couple has been avoiding rumors of a split or divorce, with the two decrying them at every opportunity. “They laugh at the constant divorce rumors,” said an insider to PEOPLE. “It’s annoying but just noise.”

The pair welcomed their first son in the summer of last year, named Jack Blues. Bieber shared a photo of his baby's foot at the time, writing, "WELCOME HOME JACK BLUES BIEBER."
