"Jack Blues is Justin's literal twin omg," wrote one fan, while another added, "Mini Bieber."
Other fans commented on how big Jack was ahead of his first birthday. "Omg he's already standing cutie," exclaimed one user, while another declared, "Jack is getting soooo big Justin."
A rocky road

"Giving birth was the hardest thing I've ever done," Hailey told the publication, explaining that she had started leaking amniotic fluid at 39 weeks which led the doctors to induce labor.
"[It] was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing," she continued.

She added that the doctors took Jack away while they were treating her for haemorrhaging, causing more anxiety for the new mother. "You start to get a little freaked out. I wanted to hold my baby. I wanted to be with him," she said.
The couple, who married in 2018, have chosen to keep Jack out of the public eye as much as possible to protect his privacy. "We don't take him to a lot of places. We don't want anyone to…I mean, you've just got to see how invasive it all is. It feels mean to put a baby into that," she added.
Justin's unusual reaction

"Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight," he wrote in the caption after resharing her Vogue cover on Instagram. "I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue. Yikes I know, so mean."
"For some reason because I felt so disrespected. I thought I gotta get even," he continued.

"So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn't get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken," he concluded. Following the backlash from this post, he edited the caption to showcase a series of emojis instead.
