Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel: Headed For a Split?

Reports of a Justin Timberlake-Jessica Biel split have been making their way across the social media landscape since at least 2019.

As you may recall, that was the year when Timberlake was accused of cheating on Biel with Alisha Wainwright, his co-star in the 2021 film, Palmer.

During filming, Timberlake and Wainwright were spotted getting a little handsy with one another, but it seems that Biel decided to overlook that indiscretion.

However, these days, Timberlake is embroiled in a slew of new controversies, and it seems that his long-suffering wife is no longer in a forgiving mood.

Justin Timberlake-Jessica Biel Split: Is It Really Happening?

Yes, after years of rumors and speculation, there’s reason to believe that Timberlake and Biel might really be on the verge of separation.

“Rumors are swirling that he and Jessica are headed for a split,” a source close to the couple tells Life & Style.

“Though they do love each other, all of the couples therapy they’ve undergone simply isn’t fixing some of their underlying issues.”

The couple married in 2012, and they’ve since welcomed two sons, Silas, 8, and Phinneas, 3.

But despite their best efforts, it seems that Justin and Jessica’s marriage may have run its course.

And the insider says there’s no clearer evidence than the couple’s recent real estate maneuvers.

“Friends say it’s a sign they’re getting their finances in order,” says the source, adding:

“At one point, they retreated to another home, in Montana, in the hopes of getting away from drama and starting over, but you can’t run away from your problems.”

Justin’s Leaving Jessica To Go On Tour – And She’s Not Happy

In January 2024, Justin announced that he’d be going on his first world tour in over 5 years to support his new album, Everything I Thought It Was. It will release on March 15

In 2018 and 2019, he played shows in support of his record, Man of the Woods, but that was the last time he was on the stage.

The tour means he’ll be away from Jessica and their kids for weeks during the spring and summer, and the decision seems to be putting even more of a strain on their relationship.

According to sources, Jessica laid down the law with Justin about how much time he was planning to spend away and only gave her “blessing” when he agreed to some rules.

“They don’t want to be apart from each other for months at a time, so he has constructed a schedule where he gets to go home to Jessica and the kids a lot,” the insider explained.

“There is also room in the road trek for them to be with him.”

Justin’s Past Comes Back to Haunt Him

Insiders say the couple’s recent troubles have to do with Britney Spears’ recent memoir, in which the pop icon portrayed Timberlake in a less than flattering light.

Among other claims, Spears alleged that Timberlake cheated on her and pressured her to get an abortion.

Apparently, it was the first that Jessica had heard of these incidents, and Britney’s claims led her to rethink certain events in her own relationship to Justin.

Timberlake publicly apologized for the Wainwright incident shortly after those on-set photos went viral.

“I regret my behavior,” he said, insisting that while he had acted inappropriately, he never actually cheated on Biel.

“I apologize to my amazing wife and family for putting them through such an embarrassing situation,” Timberlake added.

The couple overcame that incident, but it’s possible that it’s remained on Biel’s mind ever since, especially since a new feud with Britney bubbled up right after that.

Oh yeah, Justin took back his apology and EVERYTHING!

We don’t know what the future will bring, but for the sake of the kids, we hope they can work it out!
