Justin Timberlake's DWI Arrest Fuels Divorce Rumors as Jessica Biel Spotted Without Wedding Ring
In what appears to be a tumultuous time for Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, the actress was spotted without her wedding ring while filming in New York City, igniting further speculation about the state of their marriage. The sighting comes on the heels of Timberlake’s recent DWI arrest, adding fuel to the rumors of potential marital discord.
Jessica Biel, 42, was seen on the set of her upcoming Prime Video thriller series, "The Better Sister," in Manhattan. The actress wore a mint green vest, tan chinos, and sandals, her ring-free hand noticeably in view. Despite the apparent troubles at home, Biel maintained a cheerful demeanor, flashing a smile and goofing around with colleagues.
The couple’s recent troubles were brought to public attention following Timberlake's arrest on June 18. According to court documents, the 43-year-old singer and actor was stopped by a Sag Harbor Village Police officer for allegedly running a stop sign and swerving out of his lane in his 2025 BMW X7. The documents detail Timberlake's impaired behavior, noting bloodshot and glassy eyes, a strong smell of alcohol, impaired attention, slowed speech, unsteadiness on his feet, and poor performance on sobriety tests. Timberlake reportedly admitted to having consumed one martini and was following friends home at the time of his arrest.
Timberlake was taken to a nearby police station, where he refused to take a breath test. He was later released without bond after his arraignment and now faces a misdemeanor DWI charge, with his next court appearance scheduled for July 26.
Sources close to Biel have revealed that she is "extremely upset" about her husband's arrest. An insider told Us Weekly that Biel was shocked upon hearing the news, having been unaware of the incident as she was busy working. "She was shocked to hear the news and had no idea as she was working," the source said.
Adding to the distress, another source claimed Timberlake had been lying to Biel about his drinking habits, insisting he was barely drinking. This incident follows previous controversies that have tested their marriage, leading some to speculate that this might be the final straw for Biel. "She always gives Justin the benefit of the doubt," the insider added.
Timberlake's arrest and refusal to undergo a blood alcohol test on three occasions have not only put a strain on his marriage but also cast a shadow over his professional commitments. The singer is scheduled to perform at Madison Square Garden for his Future Tomorrow tour amidst this legal turmoil.
Despite the apparent strain, Biel’s concern for Timberlake’s well-being is evident. While she is deeply upset, her worry for him shows a complex mix of emotions that hint at a deeply rooted bond despite the challenges they face.
The couple, who met in 2007 and married in 2012, has two children together. They have weathered numerous storms, including infidelity rumors and public scrutiny, yet have managed to maintain a united front until now. This latest incident, however, has brought their private struggles into the spotlight once again.
As the situation unfolds, fans and the media alike are left wondering about the future of one of Hollywood's most high-profile couples. Will this incident lead to a permanent rift, or will Biel and Timberlake find a way to navigate through this storm together?
Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake’s representatives have not yet commented on the recent developments. As Timberlake prepares for his upcoming court appearance and performance, all eyes will be on the couple, waiting to see how they handle this latest challenge.
