Justin Bieber trended on the internet after reportedly going on an unfollowing spree on Instagram, unfollowing even his wife Hailey Baldwin-Beiber, stoking split rumors between the new parents.
The Canadian pop artist and the American model-entrepreneur had just recently welcomed their first baby last August, an event that many believed cemented their relationship.
Many were shocked on Monday (US time) when Bieber stopped following most of his close friends and affiliates, among them record producer Scooter Braun, who discovered him in 2008, and singer-songwriter Usher, who mentored him.
But the biggest shock came when it was found out that Bieber also unfollowed his wife and father-in-law, Stephen Baldwin, who had been vocal about lending support to the troubled singer.

Aside from his unfollowing binge, Bieber is also under fire for posting pictures of himself on Instagram hitting what appeared to be marijuana.

The incident was believed to have happened also in Aspen where the “Peaches” singer was vacationing with his family and friends.
This post prompted concerns that the singer may be spiraling out of control.
