Hailey Bieber Celebrates Fifth Anniversary With Justin Bieber By Posting Sweet Tribute to Late Designer Virgil Abloh: ‘We Miss You!’

Hailey Bieber celebrated her fifth wedding anniversary with Justin Bieber on Monday (Sept. 30) by posting a loving tribute to late fashion designer Virgil Abloh. She posted a picture of herself with the beloved fashion icon who created the custom Off-White gown and veil for the model’s wedding on what would have been Abloh’s 44th bday; he died from cardiac angiosarcoma in Nov. 2021 at age 41.

“Happy Birthday V, we miss you! Thank you for making me the most magical wedding dress. 🤍🪽,” the model wrote on her Instagram Stories alongside a photo of her walking with Abloh in her lace wedding gown. A second image captured the happy couple at their Sept. 2019 wedding in South Carolina, showing the Biebers are kissing at night on a lawn with Hailey’s voluminous train spread out on the grass to reveal the secret embroidered message on its hem: “Till Death Do Us Part.” The post was accompanied by the number five and a three-star emoji.

The final slide featured Hailey posing in the dress in profile, a sly smile on her face.

In August, the Biebers welcomed their first child, Jack Blue Bieber. They shared the news in an Instagram post in which Hailey was pictured holding her baby’s tiny foot. As the couple nest with their newborn, indie singer-songwriter Mk.gee recently revealed in an interview that he’s been in the studio with Bieber working on the singer’s first new album since 2021 Justice album.

“He’s searching,” Mk.gee told the New York Times. “Anything that comes out of his mouth: That’s pop music. You can really do pretty wild stuff behind that, just because it represents something.” Bieber has been mostly off the musical radar since cancelling the 2023-2024 world tour in support of Justice after getting diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which resulted in “full paralysis” on one side of his face.
