Pop superstar Justin Bieber, 31, has reportedly been hospitalized once more following a sudden flare-up of his long-term health condition. According to multiple sources close to the singer, Bieber was admitted to a Los Angeles medical center late Sunday night after experiencing unexpected numbness and facial weakness — symptoms linked to his struggle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
This latest scare comes nearly three years after Bieber first revealed his diagnosis, which forced him to pause his Justice World Tour in 2022 to focus on treatment and recovery. At the time, he shared an emotional video with fans showing one side of his face partially paralyzed, explaining how the virus had attacked the nerves in his ear and face.
Insiders say Bieber had been feeling off for days while preparing for a private studio session and planning new music collaborations. He reportedly tried to push through the discomfort, hoping it would pass, but his condition worsened quickly over the weekend.
Bieber’s management released a brief statement Monday morning: “Justin is under expert medical care and surrounded by family and close friends. He’s receiving the treatment he needs and is expected to make a full recovery. We ask for privacy and prayers at this time.”
Doctors are said to be monitoring him closely to ensure the virus doesn’t cause any lasting damage. While early signs are encouraging, his team has already canceled several planned commitments, including a surprise appearance at a major music festival and a brand event for his skincare line.
Fans know Bieber’s journey with health struggles has been a long one. In addition to Ramsay Hunt syndrome, the singer has spoken openly about battling Lyme disease, which he was diagnosed with in 2020 after years of unexplained fatigue, skin issues, and neurological symptoms. He’s also shared his ongoing mental health battles, hoping to inspire others to speak out and seek help when needed.
Despite repeated setbacks, Bieber has remained committed to music and his fans, often posting heartfelt updates on social media. Just last month, he teased new songs and hinted at a possible tour announcement for 2025.
Following the news of his hospitalization, millions of Beliebers worldwide flooded social media with supportive messages using hashtags like #PrayForJustin and #StayStrongBieber. Many are urging the singer to take as much time as he needs to heal fully before returning to the spotlight.
For now, Bieber’s management says his health comes first, and any future plans will depend entirely on his doctors’ advice.
