Justin’s followers speculated that he was experiencing trouble in his marriage to Hailey Bieber, 27.

However, a source has claimed that he simply wanted to share a “vulnerable” moment after “diving into his faith.”

“Justin wears his emotions on his sleeve and it is no secret that he is very religious,” an insider told the Daily Mail.

“The pictures he put up of him crying may have prompted fans to question his wellbeing, and whether his marriage is on the rocks – but it was about his love of Jesus.

“It is deep, but he prays and often sheds tears after diving into his faith and though he prays and gives thanks for all that he has in his life, he gets carried away and the emotions that come from it all are released through tears.”

“He is not ashamed or embarrassed as he wants people to see his emotions. It helps him out for all that he goes through.”

They added, “He feels that people should be vulnerable, and he is being vulnerable, and he believes it shows some maturity that he once didn’t have. In a word, he thinks it is beautiful.”

Justin shared the tearful photos among other snaps of him trying on sneakers, smoking, and performing with Tems at Coachella.

Hailey commented, “A pretty crier,” with a smiling cry emoji on the post.

Critics slammed her response and said it was a “weird” thing to comment on your husband’s emotional photos.

The Rhode Beauty founder shut down speculation that their marriage is on the rocks hours later by gushing over a shirtless photo of him during his Hawaii trip.

Hailey and Justin are devout Christians and have spoken in the past about how their religion keeps them together.

The Love Yourself singer was baptized by now-controversial pastor and his former friend, Carl Lentz, in 2014.

In 2020, Justin shared a lengthy post about religion and how Jesus “shows him I am enough.”

“Thank you Jesus for my life. Thank you for your forgiveness! Thank you for showing me I am enough!” he wrote.

“Thank you that I no longer have to carry shame but can walk with my chest up and head held high knowing I am loved, chosen, and forgiven! If you struggle with your past give it to Jesus!

“He isn’t burdened by it! He loves you and is honored to know all of little details good and bad in your life!

“He isn’t angry with you, he wants the best for you!”
