Justin Bieber's parents, Jeremy Bieber and Pattie Mallette, were just teenagers when they welcomed him in March 1994.

The couple split shortly after his birth. While Justin remains Pattie's only child, Jeremy later expanded his blended family, welcoming four more children: Jazmyn, Allie, Bay and Jaxon.

Decades later, Justin entered a new chapter of his own. In summer 2024, he and his wife, Hailey Bieber, welcomed their first child, son Jack Blues Bieber — a milestone that also made Jeremy and Pattie grandparents for the first time.

In April 2026, the “Yukon” singer celebrated his roots on one of music's biggest stages. While headlining Coachella, Justin gave his parents a heartfelt nod during his performance of “EVERYTHING HALLELUJAH,” singing, “Mom and dad, hallelujah.”

From how they encouraged his singing career to how they've expanded their families, here's everything to know about Justin Bieber's parents, Jeremy Bieber and Pattie Mallette.

Justin's mother, Pattie, was born in 1975 in Ontario, and welcomed Justin when she was 18 years old. While Jeremy wasn't as active in Justin's upbringing when he was a child, Justin lived primarily with his mom, who told The New York Times she worked a number of low-paying office jobs to make ends meet.

“I grew up with not a lot of money,” Justin told the outlet in December 2009. “We never owned a house. I want to buy my mom a house.”

According to Billboard, Pattie encouraged Justin's musical talent at a young age, entering him in talent shows and posting his performances on YouTube, which is how he ultimately got discovered.

Pattie has been by her son's side since the start of his fame, from Justin's initial visit to Atlanta to meet manager Scooter Braun to signing with a record label. She also appeared in Justin's 2011 documentary Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, which chronicled the musician's rise to stardom.

"It's really fun watching him grow and transition," Pattie told MTV News in 2013. "It's just been this crazy whirlwind, and I'm just along for the ride."

Jeremy and Justin have had an up-and-down relationship

Justin's dad, Jeremy Bieber, was also born in 1975 in Ontario. While he shares Justin with ex Pattie, he is also a father of four other children: He shares daughter Jazmyn and son Jaxon with ex Erin Wagner, and daughter Bay with his wife Chelsey Rebelo. Jeremy is also a dad to Chelsey's daughter Allie from a previous relationship.

While Justin's relationship with his father has experienced ups and downs over the years, the two have a strong bond. The singer told Billboard in November 2015 that his father was "not in a place where he could raise a kid" when Justin was younger.

"He was immature. He left for like a year when I was about 4, went to British Columbia, came back on Father's Day," Justin recalled. "I remember my mom said, 'If you're going to be here, you have to be here.' There's a misconception that he's this deadbeat dad, but he has been in my life since. I was with him on weekends and Wednesdays."

In February 2016, however, Justin told GQ that he was "a lot closer to my dad than I am to my mom" at the time.

The singer opened up about his relationship with Jeremy again in December 2017, sharing a photo of the two on Instagram and writing, "I️ love continuing to get to know my father I️ love working through hard things to get to the good things.. relationships are worth fighting for especially with family!! Love you forever and always daddy!"

The "Peaches" singer is "honored" to be Jeremy's son and praised his father in a 2022 post for Father's Day. "Love you pops!" he captioned a throwback photo. "Happy Father's Day! So much to look forward to. Best is still ahead of us! Honored to be your son."

Justin also has a relationship with his stepmom, Chelsey Bieber

Chelsey Bieber (née Rebelo) is Justin's stepmom. After dating Jeremy for several years, the two got engaged on Feb. 19, 2016, in St. Barths.

Justin celebrated his father's pending nuptials at an engagement party in Toronto a few months later. Justin reportedly performed at the private party and played piano. He later served as a groomsman at Jeremy and Chelsey's 2018 wedding.

Just like Justin, Chelsey is a Toronto Maple Leafs fan, frequently sharing photos of herself attending games with Jeremy and wearing team garb.

She's also seen her stepson perform on tour. In March 2022, she shared a photo of Jeremy and their four children at one of Justin's shows. "Let's gooooooo @justinbieber 💜💜💜💜," she captioned the shot.

Pattie and Justin were estranged for a period of time

While Pattie has supported Justin's career, they were estranged for two years. In November 2015, the pop star told Billboard that their relationship was "pretty nonexisting."

He explained, "I was distant because I was ashamed. I never wanted my mom to be disappointed in me, and I knew she was. We spent some time not talking, so it takes time to rebuild that trust. She's living in Hawaii now, so it's hard, but getting better. She's an amazing woman, and I love her."

The mother-son duo reunited in January 2018 for a vacation together, and Pattie shared a photo of the two in an embrace with a sweet caption.

"I'm so proud of the amazing young man you are, and the young man you are becoming," she wrote. "I admire your character and integrity. You are maturing beautifully and wise beyond your years."

Pattie is close with Hailey Bieber

Pattie also seemingly has a close relationship with Justin's wife, Hailey, whom he wed in September 2018. One day after Justin and Hailey secretly tied the knot, Pattie celebrated the couple by tweeting, “Love is unconditional.”
