Justin Bieber Still Reeling From P Diddy’s Arrest And Struggling Mentally

P Diddy’s arrest last month ticked the internet off and sent people spiralling down memory lane to dig out some of the rapper’s shiftiest moments.

In one of them, we see him saying that Usher has lended then-young Justin Bieber over to him – for what, 48 hours? – and that they’ll have a lot of fun. Eagle-eyed fans were able to detect and conclude that young Justin looked very nervous.

Compare this to a clip of Justin saying he wants to protect Billie Eilish from the horrors of the industry, and you can understand why some fans are ready to hop on the crazy conspiracy train.

Justin Bieber’s “History” With P Diddy Makes It Hard For Him To Process His Arrest And Scandal

We’re officially in the era of “if you took a pic with P Diddy, you’re the internet’s next favorite chew toy.” This has affected several celebrities and public figures, the likes of former US President Barack Obama, Taylor Swift, Usher and many others. However, in Justin Bieber‘s case, fans are more likely to denote him the role of a victim.

Currently, P Diddy, born Sean Combs, is in prison facing charges of sex trafficking and transportation to commit prostitution, amongst other horrific crimes. As he prepares to head to court and get his facts in order, long-time acquaintance Justin Bieber is feeling the weight of the allegations heaped on him.

“Justin is in a hard place mentally right now,” a source claimed to Us Weekly on Wednesday, Oct. 9. “He has such a history with Diddy and the allegations against him have been hard to process.”

A separate inside then came forward to say that Bieber is undoubtedly “disgusted” by Combs’ scandal, and that his team has warned him to stay as far away from it as possible.

Justin Bieber Doesn’t Want To Focus On The Past And Is Happy Being A Dad

This is coming after Bieber’s latest outing in Los Angeles. As he was leaving the celebrity hotspot Chateau Marmont, he was pictured wearing a somber and pensive look on his face.

However, an insider is hinting that this has less to do with Diddy and more to do with the fact that he’s a new father.

According to the insider, he’s more focused on the positive aspect of his life, after welcoming baby Jack with wife Hailey Bieber. “His happiness being a dad has outweighed his anxiety about Diddy,” the insider said.
