“Marriage was supposed to fix all my problems, or so I thought,” Justin confessed on The Ebro Show, spring 2022. He had a bit of an emotional meltdown after tying the knot. But it didn’t.
It was like looking in a mirror. A harsh, unforgiving mirror. “You’re a bit of a hypocrite, man,” it seemed to say. “Expecting your wife to do something you’re not doing yourself.”

Meanwhile, Hailey was on her own journey. She was striving to be more in touch with her emotions. An Instagram post from January that year revealed her efforts to be “more vulnerable.”
She penned, “Life may look amazing from the outside, but the truth is, I struggle…” She admitted to being insecure, fragile, and hurting. She had fears, doubts, anxiety. She got sad, she got angry.
