She lives in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. She is married to Canadian singer Justin Bieber.
Hailey Bieber on Friday marked a year since she suffered a mini-stroke that led to her diagnosis of patent foramen ovale (PFO), meaning she had a hole in her heart. "Can't believe it's been one year since I suffered a mini stroke that led to my PFO diagnosis," Bieber shared on her Instagram story. "Given that it's the one-year mark from such a life-changing event, I wanted to share all the information I've learned about PFO and share resources to donate."
