Justin Timberlake faced a tumultuous summer, leading to a frosty atmosphere in his relationship with his wife, Jessica Biel.
In early June, Justin Timberlake was caught in an embarrassing situation. The singer’s reputation took a hit when he was arrested for a DWI in New York.
The songwriter was busted while driving intoxicated in Sag Harbor. The humiliation grew more significant when the authorities failed to recognize the superstar of NSYNC, Mr SexyBack, during the arrest.
Timberlake and his wife, Jessica Biel, have been married for 12 years and have been together for 17 years. Some of these have been challenging for the couple.
There were the Britney Spears and Janet Jackson-related documentaries that dragged Timberlake’s name in the mud.
The artist landed in trouble for getting too close and cozy to his co-star Alisha Wainwright at a bar in New Orleans because he was drunk and had a “lapse of judgment.”
And now this head-scratching and humiliating arrest. Biel has set strict guidelines for Timberlake to follow to salvage their relationship and protect their family.
These rules are aimed at helping the dancer overcome his bad habits and regain control over his life. Biel’s patience is running thin, and the singer knows it, so he has agreed to his spouse’s new terms and conditions.
A source explained to In Touch that the “Cry Me a River” singer decided to pour out his heart to his fed-up wife and apologize for his shameful behavior.
As part of his apology, Timberlake also made the vexing confession to Biel that he had developed some unhealthy habits, including excessive drinking and smoking.
Timberlake was not only drunk when he was arrested; he had a vape pen, Rolex, and a wallet that contained $306 on him. The person in the know stated: “Part of Justin’s mea culpa to Jessica was to admit that he’d gotten into some bad habits and that he needs to dial everything way back.”
Timberlake was forced to confront that his actions jeopardized his marriage and health and agreed that he needed to change his lifestyle significantly.
The insider claimed: “He was busted with a vape pen, which is a big worry because of the effect it can have on his lungs. So he’s now agreed to totally ditch that for good, and he’s gone pretty much cold turkey on the booze, too.”
Timberlake finds the rules boring and believes they have affected his social life, but he will do what it takes for his wife and children.
The family friend claimed: “He’s admitted to his friends that it’s very boring because there’s nothing to take the edge off, especially when he’s out on the road.”
According to the source, Timberlake is blowing off steam by “trying his best to sweat it out in the gym when he’s feeling antsy.”
The insider concluded by revealing it is a challenging adjustment period for the performer and added: “He’s still got his computer games to zone out with, but as far as vices go, they’re all gone — and, as anyone knows, it can be a big adjustment period. But he’s promised his wife to clean up his act, and he’s sticking to it, no matter how tough it gets.”
Time will tell if the music sensation can get the best of his demons.
