BTN News: Last Monday evening, Justin Timberlake, famed for the singles “Suit & Tie” was arrested for DUI near Sag Harbor, New York, according to ABC News. The accident happened while the 43-year-old singer was on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour to support his new album Everything I Thought It Would Be, which dropped in March.
Booking and Court Details
The arrest of Timberlake happened the day after he had spent Father’s Day with his two children and wife, actress Jessica Biel. He will appear in court on Tuesday, June 25. Timberlake’s tour, however, is poised to move forward despite this legal wrinkle with shows scheduled in Chicago June 21-22 and in New York City June 25-26. More concerts are scheduled to Denver, Boston, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
Father’s Day Celebrations and Family
Before his arrest, Timberlake also celebrated Father’s Day with family. Her former 7th Heaven co-star Jessica Biel, 36, shared an emotional post on Instagram. The star used the romantic event to share intimate snaps of their boys, Silas, nine, and Phineas, three, who are rarely seen, as well as a loved-up selfie of the couple. She praised Timberlake in her post: calling him “THE ROCK of our family” and signing off with “I love you, baby.”
Relationship Timeline
Timberlake and Biel first met when they were attending the same party in 2007. The two began dating soon after, and while they broke up for a few months in 2011, they were engaged by December of that year. Their engagement took place during a trip to their home in Montana, which is where Timberlake popped the big question. They tied the knot on October 19, 2012 in Fasano, Italy. They became parents three years later in April 2015 with their son Silas, and in the summer of 2020 welcomed their second son, Phineas.
Resulting Timberlake Tour and Career Impact
Timberlake’s packed tour schedule, including high profile concerts at key markets, could be affected by the arrest. The matter is made worse because he holds the position of father and is a public figure in the realm of professional commitments.
