The magazine adds that his parents weren’t married, and they broke up within months of Justin’s birth.

He went on to have more children – and eventually get married

While Justin’s mother didn’t have any other children after Justin, his father did. Per People, Jeremy had a daughter Jazmyn and son Jaxon with his ex Erin Wagner, and welcomed daughter Bay in 2018 with his wife Chelsey Rebelo. Rebelo also has a daughter named Allie from a previous relationship.

Jeremy married Rebelo in 2016, according to the magazine, and Justin, who is now her stepson, served as a groomsman at the pair’s nuptials.

He works out

Despite being nearly 50, Jeremy has proven that age really is just a number. A quick scroll through his Instagram shows how hard he’s worked to maintain his physique. He regularly shares photos of himself at the gym on the platform, where he boasts over two million followers. According to several Justin Bieber fan sites, Jeremy now works as a carpenter and handyman, which might also explain how he’s managed to stay in such good shape.

However, he’s no stranger to controversy …

Like many celebrity family members who get scrutinised by the media, Jeremy has had his fair share of controversies.

In June 2023, he caused a stir once more when he posted an “offensive” message about Pride Month on X, formerly Twitter, according to The Independent. “Don’t forget to thank a straight person this month for your existence,” it read.

He later attempted to clarify his post in another tweet, stating, “My post was to acknowledge families, that’s it! and before you say I abandoned my son, move on! that’s an old narrative pushed! its ridiculous and didn’t happen. Now my delivery may have been poor but it was not to be hateful or homophobic.”

Not all netizens were impressed by either tweet though, as TMZ reported at the time, sharing some of the public backlash on social media.

Does Justin Bieber have a good relationship with his dad?

Biebs has undoubtedly had his ups and downs with his father. The “Baby” singer previously told Billboard in 2015 that he believed his dad was “not in a place where he could raise a kid” in his younger years. “He was immature. He left for like a year when I was about four, went to British Columbia, came back on Father’s Day,” Justin recalled. “I remember my mum said, ‘If you’re going to be here, you have to be here.’ There’s a misconception that he’s this deadbeat dad, but he has been in my life since. I was with him on weekends and Wednesdays.”

It seems they’ve become closer over the years. In 2022, Justin wrote on Instagram, “Love you pops! Happy Father’s Day! So much to look forward to. Best is still ahead of us! Honoured to be your son.”
