Word on the street has it that Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin legally tied the knot at a New York City courthouse last Friday (14th September).
However TMZ reported that the couple are not officially married yet, though they did obtained a marriage license. If anything, it shows that the 24-year-old singer and 21-year-old model are serious about walking down the aisle soon.
According to the guidelines provided by the New York City Clerk’s Office, couples are required to show up in person together when obtaining the license. It takes a full 24 hours before the license can be used. Secondly, the license expires in 2 months time – this means that Bieber and Baldwin must marry between now till 12th November 2018. Failure to do so will result in having to apply for another license.
US Weekly claimed that the lovebirds did not have a prenup. In other words, they did not present any legal documents “to establish their separate property and financial rights in the event of a divorce”. It is believe that the pop star is worth around US$265 million.
The American beauty previously told The Cut about her wedding plans. “My sister will be my bridesmaid. I was hers last year. And maybe Justin’s little sister as a flower girl. Is 10 too old?” she pondered.
Baldwin also shared that she’s bothered by the fact that she’s getting married at a young age. “My sister was 24 when she got married, and my parents also got married when they were young, too. I see no reason to wait. When you know it’s right, it’s right.”
Bieber previously proposed to Baldwin on 7th July while they were vacationing at the Bahamas.
