Hailey and Justin Bieber have sent a cease and desist letter to creator Julie Theis after she posted screenshots of the notice on her Instagram, sparking fresh buzz and debate online about what happened and why this particular video drew legal action. The move has drawn attention not just for the legal response but for the broader conversation around celebrity privacy and public commentary.
This isn’t the first time Hailey Bieber has been involved in legal threats over social media content. In the past, the couple’s team sent legal notices to a plastic surgeon whose video discussed claims about Hailey’s appearance, accusing him of spreading unsubstantiated claims and using her image without permission.
Supporters of Theis applauded her for standing by her opinions, while critics said the case highlights how quickly commentary can trigger legal warnings in the digital age. Whether the letter will escalate into a lawsuit or ultimately lead to the video being taken down remains to be seen, but for now the incident has renewed attention on how far creators can go when commenting on high‑profile relationships.
