The 24-year-old model’s husband, Justin Bieber, upload a picture of the couples and tag it with a caption “mon and dad” and Hailey has since responded to comments suggesting the couple may expecting their first child together.

She replied to the post: “I think maybe you should change this caption to Dog Mom and Dad before anyone twists it.”
That’s not to say that they aren’t ready to start a family together because Justin has previously revealed that he would love to have kids with her.
However, he insisted that he let his wife decide how many children they will have.

When asked how many kids he would like, the “Peaches” hitmaker said last year, “I think it’s Hailey, because it’s her body.”

This was not the first time the hitmaker spoke of fatherhood, as he had previously said he looked forward to the next step in their relationship.
And the couple who married in 2018 really train a lot when it comes to the kids, as Justin has said he and Hailey have been having “all day” sex.
He said, “So when I’m with my wife, we like to … you can imagine what we’re doing all day. It’s going to be pretty crazy. This is all we do. We love watching movies, we love Netflix, and we love to relax – but we certainly cool off more. ”

In 2019, a source said the couple intended to raise a family but wanted to settle down first and make sure Justin was “in good mental health” before venturing down that path.

The source said at the time, “Justin and Hailey were talking about kids and that’s their priority.

“They want to be in the right place before they have it: to have a home, to get married and Justin to be mentally healthy.

“The couple want two children, and their friends wouldn’t be surprised if that happened soon.”

Although Kim Kardashian had divorced Kanye West earlier this year, however, they both seem to put their children first. There is no drama here! Kim Kardashian and Kanye West let it all happen despite their divorce and put their four children first by taking the family for the weekend to San Francisco.

In addition to the time spent together, the city has a lot of fond memories for the couple, as this is where he proposed to Kim in 2013.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West both took their children North, 8 years old, Saint 5 years old, Chicago years old and Psalm years old on a private trip to the Asian Art Museum after sharing breakfast. “They are doing fine, and it is their family outing together in public that confirms that they are okay with parenting and putting their kids first,” a source revealed to the New York publication.

An informant claims that the two of them were “very discreet”. “They were happy to be there and everyone seemed to get along very well between Kim and Kanye. They were there for the kids because the museum is a very family friendly environment and this special exhibit highlights the childlike wonder in us all.” They were gracious and had a great time!”

“Kim is good at meeting Kanye,” a source told People. “She just wants him to be happy.”

It seems that for the first time since the separation, Kim and Kanye have left their differences aside for their four children. Being able to go on vacation together makes it much easier for kids to get used to their new normal – and it has to do with how the Kardashians always welcome ex-friends into their home. San Francisco might not have the same romantic memories for Kim and Kanye, but now it’s a lovely place to get together with the family.
