by

Justin Bieber and his family are in mourning.

The “Sorry” singer announced on social media that his grandfather Bruce Dale has died. He was 80.

It was reported that Bruce, the father of Justin Bieber’s mother, Pattie Mallette, passed away peacefully in their hometown of Stratford, Ontario, on April 24th. This information was published by a funeral home in the same town. Following his grandfather’s death, Justin wrote an emotional tribute to Bruce, affectionately known as “Papa.

For weeks, I’d take all your money for a laugh, you specifically mentioned that grandma gave you $20 for an entire week. This was back when you and I were on Instagram, April 26 to be exact, right before the launch of your first EP ‘My World’. You’d remember our Friday night hockey games where I’d persuade you to splurge on snacks like corn nuts, Skittles, gum balls, chuck a puck, slush puppies. You’d hesitantly give in every time. Shout out to the junior B referees Beatty, Fagon, Flanagan, laughing my head off!

Justin added, “Despite your questionable referee decisions prompting my grandpa’s relentless teasing, he never held back his opinion that you weren’t exactly model behavior.” He went on to say, “I eagerly look forward to our reunion soon in the hereafter.

The 31-year-old shared his heartfelt feelings about his grandfather, who had children including Candie Toper, Chris Mallette, and Chris Dale together with his wife, Diane Dale. He also expressed the deep sense of loss he feels now that his grandfather is no longer in his life.

Justin’s recent setback is surrounded by rumors concerning his private life, a topic that both he and his wife Hailey Bieber, who together have an 8-month-old son named Jack Blues Bieber, have persistently denied on social media.

Lately, the popular singer known for his song “Peaches” has dismissed speculations about leaving Los Angeles after a situation involving a crowd of photographers.

Justin posted on Instagram Stories on April 24, ‘Everyone’s advising me to depart from LA.’ But am I supposed to flee when I’m needed the most where my impact is significant? How can we instigate change if we abandon the challenges? I, too, have been ensnared by Hollywood’s transactional nature.

He also reflected on why he tended to get so emotional when discussing Justin’s accomplishments.

In that 2018 interview at the Stratford Perth Museum, he simply stated, “I find myself getting emotional whenever I discuss him. Regardless of who I’m speaking with or the topic at hand, I can converse freely, but when it comes to him, my feelings take over.

Justin’s recent setback is surrounded by rumors concerning his private life, a subject that both he and his wife Hailey Bieber have repeatedly kept quiet about on social media platforms, despite sharing an 8-month-old son named Jack Blues Bieber with her.

Lately, the artist famous for “Peaches” denied gossip suggesting his relocation from Los Angeles after a run-in with photographers caused a commotion.

Justin posted on his Instagram Story on April 24th, ‘Everyone’s advising me to leave LA.’ He questioned, ‘Do you think I’m going to be pressured into abandoning a place where my impact is crucial? How can we bring about change if we flee from the challenges? I too have fallen prey to Hollywood’s transactional ways.’

Admitting my discomfort, yet making it clear, I have no interest in that matter as a mature individual with a spouse and child. Instead, I yearn to immerse myself in the culture, absorbing wisdom from all sources. I aim to be both an advocate and champion for LOVE AND EQUALITY.
