Justin Bieber’s father-in-law Stephen Baldwin posted a cryptic TikTok video amid troubling news about the singer’s relationship with his former mentor.
“You’ve heard the expression ‘the calm before the storm’, there’s always a calm before the storm but there’s also a calm after the storm,” the father of Bieber’s model wife Hailey told his 103,000 followers.
“There’s a calm and then a storm and then another calm, and in that final calm is preparation for… the next storm,” Baldwin added.
He did not explain what he meant.
But the message comes after images of Sean “Diddy” Combs with Bieber, 15, resurfaced online after the rapper was arrested on sex trafficking charges.

“Disturbing” images of Sean “Diddy” Combs with 15-year-old Justin Bieber have resurfaced online after the rapper was arrested on sex trafficking charges.

X/Twitter users described the video as ‘creepy’, in which Diddy, 24 years older than Bieber, is seen documenting his ’48 hours’ with the young singer.
Diddy was arrested last week in New York and formally charged with years of coercion and abuse as he used blackmail and violence to control his victims.
He has also been accused of inducing female victims and male sex workers to engage in drugged sexual acts, sometimes lasting several days, known as “freak offs.”
In the clip, Diddy, whose real name is Sean Love Combs, stands next to the young pop sensation and tells the camera: ‘She’s spending 48 hours with Diddy, we can’t reveal where we are or what we’re doing.’
“But it’s definitely every 15-year-old’s dream.”
The 54-year-old hip hop mogul added: “I’ve been given custody of her. She’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he made his first album.”
Diddy continues: ‘I don’t have legal guardianship of him (Bieber), but for the next 48 hours he’s with me and we’re going to go crazy.’
Bieber, wearing a black baseball cap and purple shirt, smiles and stares at Diddy throughout the video, making small comments like “yeah” and “totally crazy.”
As for X, when the footage resurfaced, social media users shared: ‘These videos NEED to resurface to expose P Diddy’s disturbing behavior with a 15 year old Justin Bieber. This is how a creepy monster behaves. DISTURBING. We should hold people accountable, no matter their status or fame!!!’;
“This P Diddy and Justin Bieber video will always be creepy”; “Diddy’s bizarre obsession with a young Justin Bieber was always disturbing. Hollywood needs to stop excusing these twisted power dynamics.”

A source close to the couple said new dad Bieber is completely “baffled” by the heartbreaking allegations and is trying to make sense of them (pictured in February).
A source close to the couple told DailyMail.com that Bieber is “so distraught” by the news that he has “shut himself off.”
The 54-year-old rapper was arrested and jailed in connection with a federal sex trafficking case that has rocked the music industry.
Usher himself claimed he was exposed to “pretty wild” stuff while living with Diddy when he was 14.
In an interview uncovered in 2016, the Burn singer revealed details about his time living with Diddy in the spring of 1994.
While appearing in The Howard Stern ShowUsher, 45, claimed it was record producer LA Reid’s idea to invite him to live with the R&B singer in Scarsdale to “see his lifestyle.”
When asked by Stern if Diddy’s place was full of girls and non-stop orgies, Usher replied, “Not really… I got a chance to see some stuff… I don’t know if I could enjoy or even understand what I was seeing.”
“It was pretty wild. It was crazy. Some really weird stuff happened and I didn’t really understand it,” he admitted.
As for whether he would send his kids to ‘Puffy Flavor Camp,’ Usher responded with a resounding, ‘No way!’
In 2004, Usher told Rolling Stone that Diddy introduced her to “a whole different set of things: sex, specifically.”
“Sex is very popular in the industry, man,” he continued. “There were always girls around. You’d open a door and see someone doing it, or several people in a room having an orgy. You never knew what was going to happen.”

Bieber, 30, is said to be so deeply “disturbed” by the news of Diddy’s arrest on sex trafficking charges that he has isolated himself from the world.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, a source said new dad Bieber is completely “baffled” by the heartbreaking allegations and is trying to make sense of them – especially considering he collaborated with Diddy less than a year ago.
The source said of the fragile singer: ‘Bieber is so distraught by the Diddy news and is unwilling to process or discuss it, so he has isolated himself.
‘A lot of the people who helped make him who he is were very close to Diddy and that has completely thrown him off balance.
“Justin has not responded to this since the house was raided. He will not.”
The source added that Bieber also deeply regrets collaborating with the disgraced mogul last year, and that he never would have done so had he known about the allegations that have since come to light.
They continued: ‘She had a long break from Diddy when she thinks most of this happened and she had distanced herself from him.
‘It was on Diddy’s last album, and if I had known about this, there was no way I would have been able to do it.’
