Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber are showing off their future parenting skills.
On Monday, October 16, Justin, 29, and Hailey, 26, both shared adorable pictures on Instagram. The photos featured them holding Poppy, the newborn daughter of Jason and Lauren Kennedy. Justin lovingly held Poppy in one arm as he fed her a bottle. Hailey also had a turn holding Poppy, gently cuddling with her while admiring the little foot that peeked out from under the blanket.
Introducing the carousel of photos, Justin captioned them, "Meet my niece Poppy Ford Kennedy." He went on to express his knowledge of Jason and Lauren Kennedy's journey and struggles in having children. He expressed his obsession with their two beautiful babies.
Jason, who is 41 years old, shared a photo of Justin holding Poppy. He expressed his special bond with Justin, referring to him as uncle Justin and appreciating his care for his children. Lauren, aged 35, also posted additional pictures of Hailey happily spending time with both Poppy and her 14-month-old son Ryver, while feeding him fruit. Fans promptly reacted to these photos and shared their thoughts in the comments section of Lauren's post.
“Hailey is destined to become an exceptional mother in the future ️,” praised one individual, while another admirer commented on Hailey and Justin's evident happiness. A different follower expressed their belief that the Biebers are fully prepared for this next chapter.

Hailey, in an interview with the Sunday Times in May, shared her deep longing for children, although she admitted to feeling apprehensive. The thought of potentially having to deal with negative comments about her spouse or loved ones is already overwhelming, and Hailey finds it difficult to imagine facing similar criticism directed towards a child.
She expressed that despite her reservations, they would still be open to welcoming children, emphasizing the importance of providing them with love and safety.
In a December 2020 episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Justin also discussed the topic. He acknowledged that Hailey still has personal aspirations to achieve as a woman, stating that she is simply not ready for children yet, which he fully supports. He shared his desire to have as many children as Hailey is willing to have, expressing his longing for a small family. Justin emphasized that it is ultimately Hailey's decision and he will respect whatever choices she makes regarding her body.
