Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have weathered several storms in their marriage. The couple tied the knot in 2012 and have two children today. However, Timberlake has been in the news over a cheating scandal and his alleged poor treatment of Britney Spears. More recently, Timberlake was arrested following a DWI. Here’s what a source said about Biel turning “the other cheek” regarding Timberlake’s wrongdoings.

Jessica Biel has reportedly ‘always turned the other cheek’ when it comes to Justin Timberlake

Jessica Biel stood by Justin Timberlake during times of scandal and chaos. The couple tied the knot over 10 years ago, and while they went through difficult periods, they managed to stay strong. In 2019, Timberlake made waves after photos caught him holding hands with his Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright. Timberlake also faced backlash following the release of Britney Spears’ memoir. The pop star alleged he cheated on her multiple times and influenced her decision to get an abortion.

An insider told OK! Magazine that Biel and Timberlake withstood the negative publicity, but it wasn’t easy. “Of course, Justin and Jessica were affected by the accusations,” the insider said of Spears’ accusations. “Justin makes no excuses for his past behavior, and he’s sorry, but he’s a different person now, with a family, a career, and responsibilities. Jessica knows that.”

The source added that Biel “has always turned the other cheek, as hard as it was,” including during the 2019 cheating scandal. “Justin feels grateful for her support.”

Jessica Biel Has Strict Rules for Justin Timberlake While He’s on Tour

The *NSYNC frontman found himself in hot water again in June 2024. Police arrested Justin Timberlake for driving intoxicated through Long Island, New York. Timberlake will face charges for a DWI. He also faces citations for running a stop sign and failing to keep in his lane.

“On June 18, 2024, at 12:37 a.m., Justin R. Timberlake, age 43, of Tennessee, was observed operating a 2025 BMW southbound on Madison Street, failing to stop at a duly posted stop sign and failing to maintain his lane of travel,” the police stated, according to People. “A traffic stop was initiated by a Police Officer from the Sag Harbor Village Police Department, and upon investigation, it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle in an intoxicated condition.”

The police report included additional details. Timberlake’s “eyes were bloodshot and glassy,” and he had “a strong odor” of an alcoholic beverage on his breath. He also couldn’t divide attention and had speech impairment.

Jessica Biel hasn’t commented on the situation. However, the day before the incident, she posted a sweet Father’s Day tribute to Timberlake on Instagram, calling him her “rock.”

Jessica Biel feels ‘pained’ that people judge her marriage, a source says

A source told In Touch Weekly that Jessica Biel knows what the public thinks of Justin Timberlake, especially after Britney Spears’ accusations.

“Jessica’s standing by Justin, but it must bother her to know he treated Britney so abominably in the past,” the source said.

“Jessica always prided herself on her great marriage, but it’s taken a few hits in recent years,” the insider continued. “It pains her that people think she’s married to a creep.”

The source noted that Biel told Timberlake that he needed to focus more on her and her children. “But the issues are still there, and friends are hoping they can have the talk they so desperately need,” they continued. “If they don’t, their marriage may be in more trouble than it already is.”
