After spending the last few weeks seeking help for depression, pop star Justin Bieber was finally seen happier than he had been in the recent past as he stepped out in New York City on Friday. When spotted by fans on his outing in the Big Apple, Justin was nothing but all bright and flashy smiles, dressed in simple casuals — a plain hoodie and a v-neck cut. He also chose to team the look with matching trousers and a pair of lace-up sneakers, and there was not a hint of hesitation or displeasure as fans kept approaching him along the sidewalk.

The 24-year-old recently married singer's outing comes after he actively sought out help regarding his depression with the help of his 22-year-old new wife, Hailey Baldwin. According to sources, Hailey had sensed something was wrong with her husband after she observed him sleeping a bit too much than his normal amount, and it was upon her urges that he sought counseling and is still undergoing the same. 

A source told Entertainment Tonight: "One of the reasons Hailey knew he needed more help was his sleep patterns. He's been sleeping far more than usual, and struggles to get out of bed until very late into the morning or early afternoon. It's very hard for Hailey to watch him suffer with the depression. She's been nothing but a good support system for him but she knows she isn't a professional, and steady therapy is exactly what he needs. She loves him dearly and hates to see him in pain. She just wants him to be at his healthiest so she pushed him to get steady help and he hasn't resisted."

This new development also means that the young married couple has had to postpone their official wedding ceremony for the third time now, after signing their wedding papers months ago. Their original wedding happened in September and was a casual, but very private courthouse affair, even though they had initially planned to have a much larger and grand celebration for their families and close friends. Soon enough they had settled on January, before calling it off, and then reportedly deciding on February 28. That too didn't last, and soon the final wedding date was decided to be held on March 1, that is Justin's birthday, but by the looks of it, that also has been postponed.

For those wondering about Hailey's take on the repeated postponing, turned out the young model hasn't done as much planning as she should have, considering the wedding was supposed to be a month ago. In a rapid-fire round for Vogue magazine's 73 Questions series on YouTube, she was asked how much of her day is spent on planning the wedding. To that Hailey replied casually saying: "Not a lot, which reminds me that I should probably get on top of it."
