Hailey Baldwin Bieber — who married Justin Bieber in September 2018 in a private civil ceremony in New York — is a model and daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin. When news of the Bieber nuptials broke, one of the questions everyone seemed to be asking was: what was Hailey Bieber’s net worth before marriage, and what was it after marrying the Biebs?
Read on to learn how much Hailey was worth before marrying Justin (and how she made her money), as well as how much marrying Justin Bieber increased Hailey Bieber’s net worth.
Hailey’s net worth before marrying Justin and how she made her pre-marriage money
Hailey Bieber — then Hailey Baldwin — signed with Ford Models in 2014 and IMG Models (one of the world’s biggest international modeling agencies) in 2016, which has given her opportunities to cover magazines around the world, including Vogue in February 2018 and appear in runway shows around the world.
Her big breakout as a model was in 2015 when she landed a spot in Ralph Lauren’s runway show.

Like her husband the Biebs, Hailey has a number of lucrative collabs under her belt, including a handbag collection with Australian brand The Daily Edited in 2016; a shoe collection with Public Desire; a denim line with Rag & Bone in 2018 for which she self-styled the campaign; a makeup collection with ModelCo in 2016; and a “style creator” role with Adidas.
Hailey was also part of the model squad — which also included Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid — that was paid to endorse the ill-fated Fyre Festival. While Frye Festival attendees paid up to $100,000 for rain-soaked floors, cheese slides on bread for meals, the models were paid well for their social media costs for the event.
Vice reported that Kendall Jenner was paid about $349,225 for a single Instagram post about the festival, while other models were paid around $28,000. While it’s unclear what Hailey made for appearing in the Fyre Festival promo video, it’s safe to assume she was paid well for her time.
In 2017, Hailey was also the official host for Drop the Mic on TBS — which it’s safe to assume she was also paid well for.
All told, Hailey’s net worth was $2–3 million before marrying the Biebs.

Marrying Justin Bieber made Hailey’s net worth shoot up dramatically. Jointly, most of the Bieber couple’s shared wealth comes from Bieber’s music career.

As of December 2018, he’d released five studio albums and 29 singles after being discovered at 14 years old on YouTube by manager Scooter Braun. Hits like “As Long As You Love Me,” “What Do You Mean?”, “Friends” and the classic “Baby” have netted him millions in album sales (Purpose and My World each earned him around $3 million) and tour revenues (the Purpose tour earned $250 million in ticket sales; the My World tour earned $53.3 million, and the Believe tour earned $69.9 million).
The Biebs’ 2011 concert documentary Justin Bieber: Never Say Never also grossed $73 million.
Like his wife, the Biebs has also made money through #sponcon and endorsements, including with Calvin Klein, Proactiv, Nicole by OPI, Beats by Dre, Elizabeth Arden, Adidas (just like his wife!) and Best Buy. He’s also released four men’s and women’s fragrances.
His debut fragrance, Someday, broke records for Macy’s by becoming the best-selling celebrity fragrance ever and the best-selling new women’s fragrance of any kind purchased in 2011
Forbes estimates that from June 2016 to June 2017, Bieber made $83.5 million. In 2018, he’d been expected to make significant money on Spotify’s IPO — but that didn’t pan out quite as expected.
There’s no need to shed a tear for the Biebers, though: Celebrity Net Worth values Bieber at a cool $265 million, which is more than enough to support both himself and his wife (and buy Hailey a $600,000 wedding ring).
So, altogether, the Biebers have about $268 million: not bad for two twenty-somethings who still have years of lucrative earnings ahead of them.
