Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel’s marriage has reportedly hit a rough patch. While his DUI arrest was several years ago, it was back in the news recently after body cam footage was released. He unsuccessfully sued in an attempt to stop the release of the footage. The couple has been married for over a decade and shares two children. Keep reading to find out more about their troubled relationship.
Justin Timberlake Sparked Affair Rumors With Co-Star
Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake met at a friend’s surprise birthday party and began dating in 2007. Their relationship came shortly after his heartbreaking split from Cameron Diaz. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel briefly split in 2011 before getting engaged early that year.
They married in a stunning ceremony in Italy in 2012. They have two sons together: Silas, born in 2015, and Phineas, born in 2020. Their marriage has been plagued by cheating rumors.
Photos surfaced in 2019 of Justin Timberlake and Alisa Wainwright, his co-star in Palmer, holding hands and looking cozy on a balcony in New Orleans. Justin Timberlake denied an affair, but apologized for a “lapse in judgment” while drunk.
Another lapse in judgment landed the NSYNC member in jail. He was arrested on drunk driving charges in Sag Harbor, New York, after running through a stop sign. He pleaded guilty and received a slap on the wrist.
Justin Timberlake paid a $500 fine and had his license suspended for 90 days. It was a done deal and pretty much forgotten about until he sued to prevent the body cam footage of his arrest from being released.
Jessica Biel Threatens To Leave Him After DUI
Justin Timberlake didn’t want anyone to see footage of him after his DUI arrest in 2024. The singer filed a lawsuit in March 2026 to stop the release of the video. His lawyers argued it would do “irreparable harm” to his reputation. Instead, it brought renewed interest in his arrest from two years earlier.
His wife, Jessica Biel, was already unhappy with his legal troubles. According to a source, she’s at the end of her rope and threatening to leave if her husband doesn’t clean up his act.
Sources told Radar Online that Jessica Biel is embarrassed by her husband’s arrest. Another issue in their marriage is that he’s never home. After his latest tour wrapped up, he signed on to host a golf tournament in Las Vegas.
“The only way Justin can salvage this is by working on himself, taking responsibility and being mindful that other people – especially Jessica – have their own problems to deal with,” the insider said.
Footage Of 2024 Arrest Released
It’s that time of the year when social media is flooded with a beloved meme of Justin Timberlake welcoming the new month of May. A couple of weeks ago, the internet was flooded with videos of his 2024 arrest.
The singer’s lawyers argued that the footage was an invasion of privacy and would ruin his career. But the body cam is actually very mild compared to previous body cam footage of other celebrities.
The “Bye Bye Bye” singer was clearly intoxicated in the footage, unable to perform the sobriety tests and slurring his words. However, he didn’t say or do anything offensive. He did have a viral interaction with the police officer after the officer didn’t know who he was or understand what he meant by “world tour.”
The lawsuit Justin Timberlake filed did more damage than the actual footage. The lawsuit only increased public interest in his arrest in 2024. Time will tell if Jessica Biel goes through with her ultimatum and leaves her husband.
