On April 29, Justin Timberlake kicked off his Forget Tomorrow World Tour with a concert in Vancouver. The tour, which has dates until Dec. 20, will have Timberlake traveling across The United States and Europe. His wife, Jessica Biel, and two sons joined him at his first stop. Biel said that after just four shows, she was exhausted by the extensive tour.

Though Biel and the couple’s two sons joined him at the show in Vancouver, Timberlake will be away from his family for much of the next several months.

“It’s always a work in progress. It’s constantly trying to find the balance, trying to find the time when we can connect,” she said on The View (via People), adding, “Thank goodness for Zoom and FaceTime. For traveling families — well, for everybody, really — but for parents who are gone a lot, that’s been really helpful.”

After just four shows, Biel said the tour had begun to exhaust her. She said she couldn’t imagine what it was like for her husband.

“I’m already exhausted,” she said. “There’s been four shows. I don’t know how he is going to do it, I don’t know how we’re going to do it, but we’re going to get through it: somehow, some way!”

How long have Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake been together?

Biel and Timberlake first began dating in 2007, not long after they both ended other relationships. They dodged break-up rumors throughout their relationship, but they officially broke up in early 2011.

“Addressing the media speculation regarding Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake’s relationship, we are confirming that they mutually have decided to part ways,” representatives said at the time (per Elle). “The two remain friends and continue to hold the highest level of love and respect for each other.”

Their split didn’t last long, though. In November of that year, Biel hinted that things had grown romantic between them again. The following month, Timberlake proposed. 

“We were in Montana on a piece of property that we owned at the time,” Biel said. “We had snowboarded all day. It was in the middle of the winter. Waist-high snow. We were [in] head-to-toe snowboarding outfits — hats, gloves, everything. And we go up to the property to just check out how the foundation is looking. And all of a sudden, he gets down onto his knees and just sinks into the snow.”

They married in 2012 and welcomed their first child in 2015. In 2020, Biel had a second son.

He reportedly said his arrest would ruin his tour

In June, police in the Hamptons arrested Timberlake on charges of driving while intoxicated. The arresting officer reportedly did not recognize Timberlake. While speaking to Page Six, a source claimed that Timberlake brought up his tour in conversation with the police.

“Justin said under his breath, ‘This is going to ruin the tour,’” the source said. “The cop replied, ‘What tour?’ Justin said, ‘The world tour.’”

As of right now, Timberlake has not announced plans to cancel his upcoming concert in Chicago on June 22.
