Hailey Baldwin-Bieber, the celebrity daughter of Stephen Baldwin, rose to superstardom from mere fame when she married pop icon Justin Bieber in 2018.
The supermodel is the niece of Hollywood star Alec Baldwin, who made headlines after fatally shooting colleague and cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his new movie, Rust.
Hailey first appeared in the fashion circuit in 2014, featuring in magazines like I-D, Tattler and LOVE, before taking to the runway for then-mega-brand Topshop.
Since then she has modelled and worked with some of the globe’s top brands, magazines and fashion houses including, Coachella, ELLE, Harper’s Bazaar, Italian Vogue, Glamour Magazine, Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren, along with many more.

Who is Hailey Baldwin-Bieber?
In 2019 Hailey became the face of Levi’s.
In the past she has made an appearance alongside uncle Alec on Saturday Night Live, hosted a segment in the MTV Europe Music Awards in Milan and featured in a host of music videos.
However despite this glittering list of high profile achievements, her childhood ambition was to become a classical ballet dancer – she even performed for the Miami City Ballet.

Unfortunately her dancing dreams were dashed after she suffered a bad foot injury.
However all was not lost, with Bieber claiming that her ballet background helped her in her modelling career.
Speaking to V Magazine earlier this year she said: “I think watching ballet has totally shaped how I see and feel movement.
“It has inspired me so much.”
And she must be good at her job – as Celebrity Net Worth report that Hailey has a net worth of $20 million.
The Baldwin family
Bieber is daughter of Stephen Baldwin, one of the four Baldwin brothers.
Arguably the most famous of the brothers is her uncle Alec, known for his film career.
They are a family deeply embedded in the entertainment industry, but despite this, when speaking to Vogue India in 2020 Hailey said: “To be honest, I don’t really think I was ever famous.
“Of course, I knew my father was an actor and he was famous to an extent, but if I was to compare how I grew up to how Justin did, he’s had a way crazier ‘famous’ experience really young.”

The family have been in the headlines in the past for their differing political views, with father Stephen an avid Trump supporter and many of the rest avidly not.
In 2017 Hailey spoke to the Times about the political rift in the family, saying: I love my father, he’s an amazing dad, but we so strongly disagreed on [the election]. He and my sister strongly disagreed on it. My sister’s husband, like everyone on our side, just doesn’t agree with him. We don’t talk about it now. It’s not worth the argument.”
Hailey and Justin Bieber
News and speculation was flying around Hailey shortly before her marriage to the ‘Baby’ singer.
The couple had been dating between 2015 and 2016 but had broken up.
Instead, a media storm surrounding rumours she was dating another Canadian singer, Shawn Mendes, was dominating the headlines.

The pair denied it at the time, but it wasn’t until after Hailey had married Bieber that Mendes shed some light on what had gone on.
Speaking to Rolling Stone in 2018 he said: “I don’t even wanna put a title on it. I think it was more of a zone of limbo.”
Their involvement peaked when they appeared as each others’ dates at 2018’s Met Gala in May, but a month later she was back with Bieber and a month after they were engaged.
Speaking about the engagement with Rolling Stone, Mendes said: “I texted Hailey, ‘Congratulations,’ and I really am happy for them. She’s still one of the f*****g coolest people ever—she’s not just a beautiful person visually, but she’s one of the most beautiful hearts I’ve ever met.”
