After the "Baby" singer unfollowed wife Hailey Bieber -- with whom he shares 5-month-old son Jack Blues -- and subsequently stirred drama online for the pointed social media activity, he explained himself.
"Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wife," Justin wrote in a since-deleted Jan. 21 Instagram Story. "S--t is getting suss out here."
E! News reached out to reps for Hailey regarding Justin's social media activity but have not heard back.
And while the 30-year-old quickly refollowed the Rhode Beauty founder, many of his fans figured the eyebrow-raising move wasn't intentional.
"This was 100% an accident," one fan wrote on X before Justin issued his statement, "Justin bieber just posted a sweet message to his wife and Hailey Bieber liked his picture yesterday."
