Justin Bieber’s mother, Pattie Mallette, has shared a heartfelt prayer for her son on Instagram as he continues his musical comeback and prepares to headline Coachella in 2026.
The 50-year-old posted black-and-white photos of Bieber, 31, alongside a lengthy caption asking God to restore his “heart, mind, and body.” Mallette declared “freedom, strength, clarity, and healing” over her son, praying for protection, love, and comfort. She added that she hoped Bieber’s life would become a “bold witness” of God’s power and grace. The post, which included a photo of the pop star in a “Pray for Me” shirt, drew thousands of supportive comments from fans and fellow believers.
Bieber has previously spoken about his struggles with fame, mental health, and physical illness, including being diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome in 2022, which caused partial facial paralysis. Fans reassured others online that Mallette’s message was “just a mother’s prayer” rather than a sign of new health concerns.
The post coincided with reports confirming Bieber’s historic Coachella deal. According to Rolling Stone, the Grammy winner secured more than $10 million to headline the festival, making him the highest-paid performer in its history. Past headliners such as Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and The Weeknd were reportedly paid between $5 million and $12 million.
Sources say Bieber is already planning his setlist, which will blend tracks from his two-part Swag albums with earlier hits, and could include special guest appearances. With wife Hailey Bieber credited as a major influence behind his decision to return to the stage, insiders describe the performance as a chance for the singer to redefine himself in a “new era” of his career.
