“But we also sailed on a lot of emotional ground, which had a lot to do with it. And we like to blame a lot of other things. Sometimes … It’s often just your stuff.”
Bieber said his marriage has become a major positive force after a difficult start.
“The first year of marriage was really tough,” he said, “because there were so many things going back to the traumatic things.”

His faith is another reason why Bieber seems to be in a better place nowadays.
God “is grace,” he said. “Every time we get confused, He recovers us every time. That’s how I see it. And that’s like, ‘I made a mistake.’ I will not stay in it. I’m not ashamed. But it actually makes me want to do better. ‘”
