It’s no surprise that Hailey Bieber went all out for her Vogue cover and interview for its June 2025 issue, including sharing intimate details about her birth story. The model and her husband, Justin Bieber, welcomed their first child last August, and the world has since been raving about their little boy. But Hailey only now shared her “difficult” experience with giving birth to Jack Blues Bieber, which was “the hardest thing” she has ever done. The mom recalled going into an 18-hour-long labor, “bleeding really badly,” and her “scary” postpartum journey.
Hailey Bieber tells Vogue all about ‘scary’ post-birth experience
Sharing her son’s birth story with Vogue in her cover star interview, Hailey Bieber recalled prepping for it for months, revealing that things didn’t go as planned. “Giving birth was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” she claimed, looking back at her 18-hour-long labor following which she finally got to meet Jack Blues. However, the “scary” part was yet to come. Post-birth, Bieber experienced postpartum hemorrhage.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, postpartum hemorrhage causes “severe or excessive bleeding after childbirth” and is a “serious, potentially life-threatening condition. Signs are dizziness, feeling faint and an increase in heart rate.” The fashion magazine noted that it occurs in “1 to 5 percent of deliveries” and can result in “hypovolemic shock (where the volume of blood decreases so much that your body can’t get sufficient oxygen), organ failure, and death,” if not treated promptly.
Bieber called her experience with postpartum hemorrhage “a little bit scary” as she calmly recounted her birth story. “I trust my doctor with my life,” the mom of one declared as she detailed tackling her postpartum scare. She further claimed she was at peace knowing her doctor “would never let anything happen to me.” However, despite their efforts, she remembered “bleeding really badly, and people die,” so the thought did cross her mind.
Nevertheless, the cover star’s challenges didn’t end there. She called being in postpartum the “most sensitive time” she has “ever gone through,” and how the internet made it more difficult for her. “And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day…I cannot even begin to explain it,” she said.
