Hailey Bieber opened up about hiding her first pregnancy for so long.
"I probably could have hid it until the end," she explained. "But I didn’t enjoy the stress of not being able to enjoy my pregnancy outwardly. I felt like I was hiding this big secret, and it didn’t feel good. I wanted the freedom to go out and live my life."
Keeping their exciting news under wraps wouldn't be shocking as the power couple has faced their fair share of criticism in the public eye. "People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced.’ It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy," Hailey noted.

Hailey Bieber admitted criticism from the public still deeply affects her.
"I used to try to act like it hurts less and less. I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less," the mother-to-be explained.
All drama aside, the duo has been focused on enjoying each other before their new addition makes their debut. "In the beginning [of pregnancy], it was super emotional for me. Like, ‘I love this human so much. How can I possibly bring someone else into this?’" she revealed. “I’m trying to soak in these days of it being Justin and me, just the two of us.”

Hailey Bieber revealed she's distanced herself from her family as she prepares to become a mom.
In a more somber moment, Hailey, whose parents are Stephen Baldwin and Kennya Deodato Baldwin, revealed she's distanced herself from her brood as she prepares to create her own. "I had a fairly normal childhood. Obviously, I come from the family that I come from, and I always recognized that that was different. I’m not super close with my family at this point in my life because I feel like I’m very independent. I’m my own individual now, and I’ve built my own family. But when I look back on my childhood and how I grew up, I have very fond, beautiful memories," she said.
"I started traveling the world, making my own money,” the Rhode Skin founder added. “I got my own apartment and had to learn how to live on my own and pay bills. That pushed me into adulthood kind of quickly, when most of my friends were just leaving for college."
