Tensions between Justin Bieber and his mother appeared to flare last month – very publicly.
After Justin Bieber announced he was pausing his tour to prioritize his well-being, his mother, Pattie Mallette, 50, posted a touching prayer for him on Instagram.
While Mallette’s message seemed born out of love and concern, Bieber’s reply left fans stunned.
The 31-year-old singer jokingly commented on his mom’s post that his only injury was a stubbed pinky toe from playing ping pong.
People reacted negatively to the comment, seeing it as disrespectful. This added to concerns about his recent unusual behavior in public and his puzzling posts online.
This also fueled rumors about Justin Bieber’s often difficult relationship with his parents, which he’s talked about before.
However, a source close to Justin Bieber told the Daily Mail there wasn’t any real conflict behind the interaction, and explained that the playful comment actually shows how close they are.
Our source said Bieber was simply joking, and understood his mother’s gesture.
The source explained to the Daily Mail that while the comment might have seemed disrespectful, it was meant playfully, not angrily. He understood her point and simply responded with a joke, and he is grateful for her well wishes.
In a heartfelt prayer, Mallette wrote that she was praying for Justin to be freed from fear, confusion, and pain, and to find strength and healing. She asked for God’s protection and clarity, and that any emotional or physical wounds be healed, and anything lost be restored, ultimately covering him with complete well-being.
She went on to pray that her son would be filled with love and peace, and that his life would demonstrate God’s strength.
Shower him with your boundless love and comfort. Continue to empower him to be a strong and passionate advocate for your purpose, unwavering in his faith. Block out any distractions or influences that aren’t from you, and let his life clearly demonstrate your power, love, and ability to heal.
The interaction sparked rumors among fans about why Bieber seemed upset, with many believing he was frustrated with his mother for revealing private details.
According to a source close to Justin Bieber, although he and his mother aren’t in frequent contact, people are overthinking their recent interaction involving a prayer and a reply.
According to a source who spoke with the Daily Mail, the recent event felt like a prayer for safety and well-being. It was a broad prayer covering everyone involved, with a focus not just on recovery, but also on preventing further harm and restoring things to how they should be.
She was essentially praying for God to relieve Justin of all his troubles, whether she was aware of them or not.
‘It’s a stretch to say that she was talking about anything specific.
She likely doesn’t know the full story – Justin doesn’t share those personal details with her. Plus, she was more interested in talking about her beliefs than in revealing any difficulties he might be facing. She’s too savvy to do that.
The post, showing Justin Bieber in a ‘Pray for Me’ t-shirt, received thousands of positive comments.
One person asked Amen Pattie to remind someone that they’re supporting each other through a difficult time, and to trust that things will work out according to God’s plan.
Someone else shared, ‘He saved my life… and I’ll do whatever it takes to repay him. #BelieberForever.’
Others reassured concerned fans that nothing was ‘wrong’ with Bieber.
‘It’s just a mother’s prayer,’ one comment read.
In recent years, Justin Bieber has publicly shared his challenges with fame, his mental health, and health issues, including a 2022 diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which temporarily paralyzed part of his face.
He caught people’s attention last week at a private sports event in Los Angeles, though his appearance was a bit messy.
Despite recent challenges, things are looking up for Justin Bieber. He’s experiencing a career revival and is set to be a headliner at the 2026 Coachella festival.
Sources told Rolling Stone that after booking the performance, he earned over $10 million for the festival – a record-breaking amount.
‘Justin is doing okay,’ our source told the Daily Mail.
He’s been going through a difficult time, and there are things he prefers to keep private. He’s finding strength through prayer and studying the Bible, and he’s grateful to be surrounded by supportive friends and family who care about him as a person, not just for his public image.
‘Justin has really shed himself of hangers-on who want to be with him because he’s Justin Bieber.
He and Hailey have gone through some difficult times, but he’s expressed deep love for both her and their son, Jack. He’s dedicated to being the best possible partner and father to them.
The Daily Mail reached out to Bieber’s representatives for comment, but has not heard back.
