Justin Timberlake is grateful for his 13-year marriage with wife Jessica Biel.
“Happy anniversary @jessicabiel ❤️,” Timberlake, 44, wrote via his Instagram Stories on Saturday, October 4, sharing a handful of loved-up images of the couple. “My favorite person.”
Alongside a throwback image of Timberlake and Biel, 43, from their early dating days, the musician wrote, “Seems like this was just yesterday.”
Timberlake concluded his tribute with a sweet selfie, where he planted a kiss on Biel’s cheek while they explored nature.
Timberlake and Biel have been married since October 2012, during which they welcomed sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 5.
“It’s constantly trying to find the balance, trying to find the time,” Biel said on The View in 2024, revealing that their marriage is frequently a “work in progress.”
Biel and her kids recently accompanied Timberlake on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which wrapped in July after he was diagnosed with Lyme disease.
“Well, as these two incredible years come to an end and I look forward to the future, I wanted to write something from the heart,” Timberlake wrote in a lengthy Instagram statement. “This has been the most fun, emotional, gratifying, physically demanding, and, at times, grueling experience. I have been doing this for 30+ years (which feels crazy to say) –– and have given all that I have to this. I could not have done it without my family, friends, The TN Kids, and all of YOUR support.”
He added, “Among other things, I’ve been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease — which I don’t say so you feel bad for me –– but to shed some light on what I’ve been up against behind the scenes. If you’ve experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you’re aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically.”
According to the former ‘NSync performer, he was initially “shocked” by his diagnosis.
“At least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness,” he said. “I was faced with a personal decision. Stop touring or keep going and figure it out. I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I’m so glad I kept going. Not only did I prove my mental tenacity to myself but, I now have so many special moments with all of you that I will never forget.”
Biel, for her part, has been steadfast by Timberlake’s side throughout his ongoing health battle.
“Jessica has been extremely supportive of Justin’s health and wellness,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly last month. “They’re both strong people, and they’re great at finding a good balance for both of their needs. She’s been incredibly emotionally supportive when he needs her. They’re navigating Justin’s new normal very well.”
Per the insider, the Timberlake-Biel family “cherishes their time with each other more than ever” as a result of the singer’s diagnosis.
“They have so much support around them too [from] both Justin and Jessica’s family,” the source added to Us. “He has so much love around him and everyone’s just praying for his healing, for a full recovery.”
