According to several reports, Hailey Baldwin's famous father, Stephen Baldwin, has placed a platonic tone to her relationship with Justin Bieber and says that the two are "just friends."
Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin's relationship has been well documented in the past month, at least according to the Instagram accounts of the two stars. Both Bieber and Baldwin's social media accounts are filled with photos that show the two of them making out, or engaged in actions that make it clear that they are indeed a couple.
However, in a recent run-in with TMZ, Stephen Baldwin thinks that her daughter and the pop star are nothing more than friends. When the actor was confronted by a cameraman from the popular celebrity news show, Baldwin said that the two were simply good friends.
When asked if he approves of Bieber dating his daughter, the actor simply responded "absolutely." In contrary, the actor quickly blurted out a follow-up to his response, stating that the two are just friends.
"But there's no label on it. Just friends," said the actor, implying that his daughter and Bieber are not engaged in a romantic relationship.
"Mr. Bieber is a wonderful young man, hugely talented go a whole lot more success ahead of him," added Baldwin in the same report by TMZ.
When asked if he would say yes in case Bieber would ask the hand of his daughter for marriage, the actor let out a quick laugh and responded just like any other protective father would.
"We're far away from that," said Baldwin, as posted by The Daily Mail.
Based on multiple Instagram posts from both Baldwin and Bieber, it truly seems that the two are dating and are officially a couple. There was even a post that seemed Bieber had already met Baldwin's relatives. If that was the case, then Hailey's father might just be denying their romance to the press.
