Will Justin & Hailey Bieber Last? Exploring Their Enneagram and Myers-Briggs Compatibility

Together (on and off) for eight years, married for five and now with a baby on the way, Justin and Hailey Bieber seem like a rock-solid, picture-perfect couple.

But can their personalities predict what’s next for the Biebers?

Both Enneagram and Myers-Briggs compatibility are tools used to measure the chances of a love match between any duo. More than figuring out what makes each partner tick, they look at communication styles, common values and interests, and all the other ways two personality types intersect to see which relationships are likely to go the distance.

Justin Bieber is an Enneagram Type Three and ESFP — ambitious, charismatic, adaptable and spontaneous. Hailey Bieber shows the traits of a Type Nine and ESFJ. She is easygoing, loyal, practical and empathetic.

But there’s so much more to their personality compatibility than just those labels. Let’s take a deeper look at what makes this celebrity couple click.

The Three / Nine Couple Are Each Other's Safety Nets

Threes and Nines are a very common pairing. Threes want to achieve great things, and feel secure in their ability to do so with the Nine's support and encouragement. Nines can also help Threes relax and enjoy the ride every now and  then — Hailey is a supportive and safe person for Justin to be himself. Here's Justin's take on their dynamic: 

“I struggle with finding peace. I just feel like I care so much and I want things to be so good and I want people to like me. Hailey's very logical and structured, which I need. I've always wanted security — with my dad being gone sometimes when I was a kid, with being on the road. With the lifestyle I live, everything is so uncertain. I need one thing that's certain."

On the flip side, Threes can help Nines to assert themselves, have more self-respect, and shine their own light in the world. Threes energize the zen-like Nine with their ambition and energy, as Hailey alluded to on Instagram: "You are an incredible man, you make me a better human being, you make me happier than I've ever been. Insanely proud of who you are and who you're becoming.."

Both types are genuinely “glass half full” people, see the best in others and are excellent communicators. Idealistic and hard working, they share similar values when it comes to family, loyalty and the kind of legacy they want to leave.

While Threes can be a bit more impulsive and adventurous, Nines are level-headed and grounded. He pushes her to take risks, she pulls him back from going too far. Ultimately, they balance each other out in a way that supports and strengthens their relationship.

The ESFP/ESFJ Couple Have a Bond Based on Friendship

Both Justin and Hailey seem to embody the spirit of these two types — they're outgoing, warm and able to make friends wherever they go. This shared love for connecting with people likely drew them together.

As Sensor-Feelers, both Justin and Hailey share fundamental similarities in values. They're both people-oriented, and also practical. They like to focus on hands-on ways to help others, including each other. No problem will go unfixed with this couple — they're resourceful, and on a mission to care for who and what they love. They both have a down-to-earth communication style, too, so misunderstandings are rarely a problem.

At their best together, this couple will joyously live in the present, comfort more than challenge each other, and make plenty of room for the friends, family and projects that they both love. Actions speak louder than words for both halves of this duo, and it's likely they will show their commitment daily through small gestures of affection and support. 

They're best friends first and foremost, which Hailey openly admits, "We're committed to growing together and supporting each other in those changes. That's how I look at it. At the end of the day, too, he's my best friend. I never get sick of him."

Bringing the Heat

Hailey's ESFJ Nine and Justin's ESFP Three make them well-matched for a supportive, stable, friendship-focused romantic connection. 

But there's probably heat there, too.

For Type Nines, sex is about merging with their partner and finding a deep sense of union. Nines seek intimacy that transcends the physical, aiming for a soulful connection that solidifies their bond. 

For Type Three, sex is a way to feel desirable. Justin wants to look good in the eyes of his partner, and Hailey can give him that. The sensuality of the Nine and the attractiveness of the Three can meet in a couple highly attracted to each other and attached by physical passion.

If they have built deep trust and respect for each other, then sex and love will be an intimate and validating experience. Sparks will fly and solidify with those energies in harmony.

But Is It Too Much of a Good Thing?

Because both types are attracted to positivity, they may cling to optimism to the point where they avoid or deny negative feelings that threaten to ruin their perfect world. That can make it difficult for them to question the routines they get into — even if those routines aren’t working anymore. 

The other "too much" area is their equal avoidance of conflict. Neither wants to bring up issues because they dislike conflict (Hailey) or fear that disagreements will expose flaws in the relationship (Justin). If, like many Threes, Justin is invested in having a “perfect marriage” to the outside world, and, like many Nines, Hailey has supported that, they both may find it hard to challenge each other or bring up necessary issues.

Under stress, Type Nine ESFJs may begin to become emotionally absent, pessimistic and prone to self-doubt. This is the worst possible response for an ESFP Type Three who may become self-destructive when they feel abandoned or rejected. This couple may go through cycles of breaking up and getting back together if they don't learn to address the small irritations early.

In other words, communication is key in this partnership.

Their Personalities are in Harmony

While more goes into compatibility than a personality type, things are looking good for the Biebers. In both the Three-and-Nine couple, and the ESFP-ESFJ couple, the friendship, comfort and security they give to each other is a tremendous source of pleasure and attraction.

It sounds almost humdrum for a couple that is anything but. Yet, we suspect the Biebers are fiercely loyal and devoted to each other. Justin gets to feel safe, seen and supported with Hailey. In turn, he gives her the love, laughter and drive she needs to be her best self. They are strong allies who have each other’s back.
