Justin Bieber has confessed that he was "reckless" during his eight-year relationship with former girlfriend Selena Gomez.
The singer admitted he was still hurting from his long-term romance with the Disney star at the start of his new relationship with wife Hailey.
He married the Vogue model in 2018, but initially warned her that he would be "unfaithful" to her as he was dealing with "unforgiveness" following him and Selena choosing to part ways.
Bieber, 25, opened up about his complicated love-life to Apple Music's Zane Lowe during an interview, where he said he was "still trying to figure out his way" after splitting from the brunette bombshell.
He said: "I'd let her [Hailey] know prior to the tour when we were hanging a lot."
"I said, 'Listen, I'm still really hurt and still trying to figure out my way, and I'm not ready to make a commitment to you in a way that... I just don't want to say something and do the opposite'".
He continued: "I was at the point where I'd done that in the past. And I just was honest with her, I was like, 'I'm not in a place to be faithful,' and all this sort of stuff, that I wanted to be - but I just wasn't there yet."
Zane quizzed Justin on why he was feeling hurt at the time, with the star replying: "I think I was just hurt from my previous relationship."
JB said he was "dealing with a lot of unforgiveness" and "didn't even know" he was struggling at the time.
However things are now better for the star as he admitted model wife Hailey changed things for him.
Justin confessed seeing her hurt made him change his behaviour.
"I was just in a place where I knew I didn't want to tell [Hailey] one thing and... I felt like she respected me at the time and I had a lot of respect for her, and so I just didn't want to say something and then she'd see me off doing some other thing.
"But either way, she loved me and seeing me with other people hurt her. And so with that being said, she went out and did things that hurt me. And so just this hurt, I've hurt her, she hurt me.
"And then before tour we just really stopped talking, I was really upset."
