Stephen Baldwin Praises Hailey’s $1 Billion Success Amid Family Rift
Hailey Bieber's Billion-Dollar Beauty Deal Has Dad Stephen Baldwin Beaming with Pride
In a shocking turn of events, Hailey Bieber's cosmetics company Rhode has been sold to e.l.f. Beauty for a whopping $1 billion, and her proud papa Stephen Baldwin is absolutely thrilled about it! The 58-year-old actor couldn't contain his excitement as he dished out the juicy details on an episode of The Adam Carolla Show.
"I'm so proud of my daughter Hailey!" Stephen gushed. "It took her three years to get this far, and I thought she was just messing around with some random beauty products. But no, she's a genius! She's got a keen eye for business, and people are responding to her brand because it actually works!"
Stephen revealed that Hailey didn't just slap her name on someone else's product line; she created something from scratch that she truly believes in. "She made products that she would use herself," he explained. "And the reason they're succeeding is that people love them! They hydrate, and all that good stuff."
The actor also shared that Hailey had a major opportunity to partner with a big beauty brand a few years ago, but she turned it down because it didn't align with her vision. "She wanted to do something on her own terms," Stephen said proudly.
But what's even more interesting is the family drama surrounding Hailey's success. Sources close to the situation claim that her relationship with her parents has been strained for some time now, and things came to a head when she fell pregnant last year.
"Hailey was closer to her mom Kennya than anyone else in the family," a source told The Scholarly Note. "But when she got pregnant, she didn't want to tell them about it for months. And then things started to get really bad when Stephen shared that post asking fans to pray for Hailey and Justin."
The post sparked concern for the couple, who have been facing some tough times lately. But Stephen insists that he's just trying to be supportive.
"I'm not interfering in their lives," he said. "I let my kids do what they want to do. If they want to throw a boomerang at me, I'll catch it and give them a hug."
Despite the tension between Hailey and her parents, Stephen remains optimistic about his daughter's success. "She's got two amazing guys by her side – Justin Bieber and Alaia's husband Andrew Aronow," he said. "I'm just grateful that my daughters married such wonderful men."
And speaking of grandchildren, Stephen can't get enough of Hailey's little boy Jack Blues! He recently shared a heartwarming post on Instagram about the newborn, calling him "incredibly cute." But sources claim that Hailey is keeping her parents at arm's length when it comes to their grandbaby.
"Hailey wants to keep things private and quiet," the source said. "She doesn't want her parents interfering in her parenting decisions."
Stephen seems to be taking his babysitting duties seriously, though – offering to clean up after Jack (or "clean up your mess," as he joked). But only time will tell if Hailey's relationship with her family can heal and move forward.
As for Justin Bieber, Stephen thinks that having a new baby has been a game-changer for the couple. "New parenthood has been very relaxed for them," he said. "They're just enjoying quality time with Jack, and I'm getting ready to watch him come out on the world!"
All we can say is – congratulations to Hailey and Justin Bieber on their little bundle of joy, and here's hoping that family drama will be put aside in favor of love and support for this new mom and dad!
