LOS ANGELES, CA — Justin Timberlake is receiving tremendous support from his wife, Jessica Biel, as he navigates his recent diagnosis of Lyme disease. Timberlake, 44, announced his health struggle via Instagram on July 31, sharing details about the challenges he faced while touring.

Timberlake’s battle with Lyme disease has affected him both physically and mentally. He described the experience as ‘relentlessly debilitating,’ including symptoms such as nerve pain and extreme fatigue. ‘I have 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,’ he wrote.

According to an insider, Jessica has been incredibly supportive throughout his journey. ‘They’re great at finding a good balance for both of their needs,’ the source said. Despite her acting and business commitments, Biel remains focused on their two sons, Silas, 10, and Phineas, 5, who are her top priority.

‘She’s been incredibly emotionally supportive when he needs her,’ the insider added. ‘They’re navigating Justin’s new normal very well. The family cherishes their time with each other more than ever.’

The couple’s extended family is also rallying around them, offering support and encouragement during this difficult time. ‘He has so much love around him and everyone’s just praying for his healing, for a full recovery,’ another source noted.

Timberlake’s challenges became apparent during his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, where he initially struggled with his performances.

‘Nothing is more powerful than your unconditional love.
