Justin was pictured looking gaunt wearing a baggy yellow hoodie and ill-fitting beige trousers during an outing in New York.
The sighting came after insiders told DailyMail.com that Justin’s wife Hailey’s friends are growing increasingly concerned about Justin’s actions.
According to the source, some of her inner circle are encouraging Hailey to leave the musician after ‘putting up with a lot’ since their marriage began.
Fears for the hitmaker have increased in recent months, following a string of sombre appearances and claims about his strained marriage.

While Hailey and her friends are reportedly worried for the star, their concerns are echoed by Justin’s huge fanbase, who have also aired their fears.
Following the publication of new images of Justin, many commented that they were worried he had gone into ‘self-destruct’ mode.
Sharing their thoughts on the photographs, they said: ‘Whatever is going on with him, she needs to put their son first and foremost whatever she has to do…
‘Not about her and her feelings about him anymore. Hopefully he can get the help he needs. Wish this family all the best’; There were several times I’ve poked fun at this guy along the way. For someone I’ve never met and I’m not a fan of, I now have deep empathy for’;
‘He looks 40 years old. This young man needs help. Serious help. Something is eating at him. It’s not a sign of weakness to ask for help. He has a son to raise’; ‘Too much baggage from his past, too many wolves around him when he was young.. We all know, and I hope he can make it through’
‘My heart break for Justin…. He is truly self destructing in front of our eyes. He has had so many sinister, horrific things happen to him in his youth that it’s most likely extremely difficult to navigate the pain. I truly hope he is ok’; ‘This young man looks decidedly unwell. I hope he gets the help he appears to desperately need’
‘Seems to be going the way of Britney Spears and other child stars. Very sad. Hope things turn around for him. Exploitation takes its toll’.

Justin and Hailey can reportedly go days at a time without talking due to his refusal to listen to her concerns about his wellbeing, insiders have told DailyMail.com
Justin appeared to debunk rumours of marital woes when he shared a black and white picture of his wife Hailey, hours after his Instagram account briefly unfollowed her, before stepping out on a joint comedy show trip at the weekend.
But their marriage is seemingly far from idyllic, with the pair apparently going days at a time without talking due to his refusal to listen to her concerns about his well being.
The tensions are believed to have prompted calls from Hailey’s friends to leave the musician, with his behaviour raising concern.
‘Hailey’s been struggling with Justin almost since the start of the marriage,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively.
‘She loves him madly but he’s a loose cannon. Some of her friends have advised her to go it alone and leave him.
‘His behavior is sometimes unacceptable. She’s put up with a lot.’
The insider said Hailey, 28, and those close to her were hopeful that he would change after the arrival of their first child, son Jack Blues, in August 2024, but despite being there for her, little has changed.
‘When the baby was born he was there for her and she thought being a father would change him for the better, but it hasn’t stuck,’ they added.

Speculation about Justin’s well being gained traction in the wake of Diddy’s arrest last year. His formerly close bond with the disgraced rapper, real name Sean Combs, came under intense scrutiny.
Sources at the time told DailyMail.com that the combination of the fallout from Diddy’s arrest and Justin’s new role as a first-time dad had left him ‘stressed.’
Soon followed speculation of turmoil between Justin and Hailey, which was further fuelled this month when fans noticed he was no longer following his father-in-law Stephen Baldwin on Instagram.
Days later he prompted concern for his marijuana use when he shared a picture of himself using a bong, shortly before apparently unfollowing Hailey on social media.
He quickly claimed he had been ‘hacked’ and set about dismissing claims of troubles by posting an image of his super model wife from their current holiday in Aspen, Colorado, where he appears to be recording new music.
‘Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife,’ he wrote in a statement shared to his Stories. ‘S*** getting suss out here.’
Rhode Beauty founder Hailey also appeared to do damage control by sharing a picture of a sleeping Justin.

But the insider added: ‘Hailey has been trying to give Justin the help he needs, but he doesn’t appreciate being told what to do and sometimes shuts her down and refuses to talk to her for days.’
A second source claimed Hailey, who tied the knot with Justin in 2018, puts up with his ‘baggage’ as she is desperate for them to be a ‘complete family unit.’
‘Living with Justin is a stressful experience because he often likes his own way,’ they added. ‘Sometimes he can be an unpleasant person to be around, and that’s when she lets him do what he wants as she knows it will be resolved a few days later.’
Justin’s social media activity has sent fans into overdrive in recent weeks.
The musician raised eyebrows when he unfollowed a number of notable names including his mentor Usher, his former manager Scooter Braun and Ryan Good, who was the best man at his wedding, prompting speculation he was trying to shed people from his past.
But he is still following Diddy, despite sources previously telling DailyMail.com that he was ‘so disturbed’ by the news of his arrest back in September when he was indicted on racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
The fallen mogul, 55, who remains locked up at Brooklyn’s infamous Metropolitan Detention Center in New York, has pleaded not guilty to the charges. He is facing life in prison of he is found guilty of the racketeering charges.

Following Diddy’s arrest, troubling videos resurfaced of the Bad Boy Records founder and a young Justin on the cusp of superstardom.
‘Bieber is so disturbed by the Diddy news and is unwilling to process it or discuss it so he has shut off,’ a source said at the time.
‘So many people who helped to make him who he is were very close to Diddy and it has completely thrown him.
‘Justin hasn’t been responding on this since the home raids. He’s not going to.’
Back in October, Justin was pushed back onto the stage by his wife Hailey who was said to be desperate for the world to see that he is ‘okay’ in the wake of increased speculation over his health and his past relationship with Diddy.
The Believe singer joined Don Toliver, 30, on stage for a surprise appearance at the rapper’s Los Angeles concert, after Justin made an impromptu appearance for Private Landing – Don’s 2023 track that he featured on.
Justin did not sing despite holding a mic in his hand the entire time.
Insiders claim that those close to the troubled singer were left confused by the decision to put him on stage and feel it did little to dispel the growing concerns.

‘It wasn’t Justin’s idea to take the stage,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Hailey has been pushing Justin to get out there and show he is okay – but this didn’t show that at all.
‘What people say about Justin is more important to Hailey than it is to Justin. Those who have worked with Justin think that this did more harm than good.
‘He went on stage looking disheveled and unkempt and didn’t sing a single note. He didn’t even try to sing which left everyone more confused as to what his purpose was in being there at all.’
Around the same time as the concert, it was reported Hailey is choosing to keep her parents away from her baby son Jack amid her ongoing tensions with the pair, according to sources who say she has long clashed with Stephen and Kennya Baldwin over religious and political beliefs.
The Rhode beauty founder gave birth to her first child with her husband Justin Bieber, 30, in August – and while many new mothers would welcome the help of their parents at this time, Hailey is determined to keep a distance.
Though her father, 58, celebrated the birth of his grandson with a post on Instagram, which Hailey did not like from her own account, the model’s mother raised eyebrows after choosing not to mark the moment on her own social media feed.
It highlights Hailey’s strained relationship with her parents, which reportedly started to ‘break down’ further when the beauty mogul fell pregnant.
‘Hailey’s relationship with her family has been eroding for some time now,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively.
‘She was closer with her mom, but that started to break down when she fell pregnant because she didn’t want to tell her family for months.’

The insider explained that the situation that ultimately pushed Hailey over the edge was when her father shared a post asking fans to pray for Hailey and Justin, something which sparked concern for the couple.
The Usual Suspects alum reposted a video of Justin singing, which was shared by All Things Possible Ministries founder Victor Marx and captioned: ‘Christians please when you think of Justin & Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection, and draw close to the Lord.’
‘Hailey had a blowout with her family when her dad asked for prayers for Hailey and Justin, and she told him that she did not want him meddling in her life,’ the source said.
‘Stephen told Hailey that she wouldn’t even know Justin if it were not for him making the introduction. Hailey was not happy about this at all.’
