Like many other celebs who have attended services at Hillsong Church, it's difficult to know the current status of "Hawkeye" star Hailee Steinfeld's relationship with the controversial house of worship. Steinfeld doesn't discuss her personal life much, but back in 2017, she was rumored to be dating a certain infamous member of the congregation: Justin Bieber.
TMZ initially reported on the relationship, noting that Bieber had broken up with Hailey Baldwin, with whom he would later reconnect and marry. In the meantime, the tabloid reported, sources told them that he had been introduced to Hailee Steinfeld through Carl Lentz, the former pastor who mentored Bieber for a while. "They both attend his church," TMZ specified. The church in question would, of course, be Hillsong. Steinfeld's reps denied the crux of the article, insisting she and Bieber were only friends; they did not, we note, deny that Steinfeld was a Hillsong attendee. However, in an unusual move, TMZ did not redact the piece, instead doubling down on the insistence that this was an actual relationship and not just a friendship.
