Justin Timberlake’s DWI Arrest Takes a Toll on Jessica Biel
(Matt Winkelmeyer)
Justin Timberlake’s recent DWI arrest has reportedly had a significant emotional impact on his wife, Jessica Biel. According to a source who spoke with Life & Style magazine, “The situation’s been a lot to deal with.”
While Timberlake has been touring and seemingly brushing off the arrest, Biel has been managing the household. “Jessica has always been the heart of their family, and she loves being a mom,” the insider shared.
However, the source noted that Biel’s friends are concerned about her. “Her friends hate seeing her bogged down by all of this, especially when she has her own projects to focus on. They feel like Justin has been weighing Jessica down for years, honestly,” the source added.
Timberlake’s arrest, which involved him being handcuffed in the Hamptons, has been particularly embarrassing for Biel. “She’s stood by him for so long. It’s one thing to sit back with friends over a drink, but it’s another to consume so much alcohol that you’re DWI bait,” the insider explained.
The couple’s marriage has already been under strain, with Timberlake’s touring schedule necessitating reliance on FaceTime to stay connected. “The fear is that more tough times are in store,” the source remarked. “If Justin isn’t worried about losing Jessica, he should be.”
Despite the severity of the situation, another source claimed that the DWI would not end the couple’s 12-year marriage. “Even though getting a DWI is very serious, she was in the Hamptons over the weekend [of July 5] acting like she didn’t have a care in the world. She’s clearly moved on from everything that has happened. Justin screwed up again, yet she didn’t seem to be fazed by it.”
Reflecting on their relationship, the source added, “Jessica is still very upset by Justin’s recent actions, but she has agreed to work through it. Jessica is worried about him, but Justin has promised her he will make things right.” The couple continues to navigate this challenging period, with Biel’s support and Timberlake’s commitment to making amends playing crucial roles in their ongoing journey together.
