JUSTIN Bieber’s wife Hailey has gotten the wrath of fans over her long nails, as critics claim they’re unsafe when handling their newborn son.
Last week, the couple announced they had welcomed their first child, Jack Blues Bieber.
They shared the happy news by posting a photo of Hailey, 27, on Instagram, touching the baby’s foot with her fingernail.
Fans immediately raced to the comments to express excitement for the little one’s much-anticipated arrival.
However, now that a few days have passed, the new mom is beginning to face backlash over her parenting style.
For one, eagle-eyed fans further examined Hailey and Justin’s birth announcement and questioned if her sharp nails could harm the baby.

Hailey donned pointed French manicured tips in the photo, which sparked a debate among fans in a message forum.
“I’m a mother of multiple children and even by my fourth kid, which is like Expert Level, I personally wouldn’t be able to safely handle a baby with nails like that,” one person wrote.
“Yeah, tell me you have a nanny without telling me you have a nanny,” someone else mocked.
Others slammed the supermodel for seemingly having time to get her nails done, while others caring for young children don’t have the same privilege.
Justin, 30, and Hailey certainly don’t have the lives of regular parents, as fans were on baby watch for months before Jack’s birth.
There were also online polls of whether Justin and Hailey’s baby would be a boy or a girl, with many leaning toward the latter.
Even before they revealed their pregnancy in May via an Instagram video showing Hailey flaunting her baby bump, fans were convinced the celebrity couple was expecting after claiming there were numerous signs.
At the time, Hailey and Justin dodged rumors she was pregnant until they came clean when Hailey was six months along.
During their pregnancy announcement, the duo also revealed they had renewed their wedding vows.
The pair got married in September 2018 in an intimate ceremony after dating on and off for years.
