Justin Timberlake Pleads Guilty to DWI, Focuses on Family Life

Renowned pop star Justin Timberlake pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of driving while ability impaired, following his arrest in June. The incident occurred after a night out in Sag Harbor, New York. Timberlake’s case was concluded in mid-September, and he was ordered to pay a $500 fine and complete 25 hours of community service.

A source close to Timberlake and his family informed PEOPLE magazine that since the arrest, the singer has “done everything he can” to make amends, particularly to his wife, actress Jessica Biel. The source stated, “The couple has been very busy working and just focus on family time when they’re off.”

In the months following his arrest, Timberlake, 43, has been engaged with various professional commitments, while Biel has been filming multiple projects, including the upcoming Amazon series. The couple is also occupied with raising their children, with the source commenting, “They’ve been married for a long time. They have to work on their marriage like most couples. Being working parents is never easy.”

The source remarked that Biel, 42, “enjoys privacy” and was “not happy” about Timberlake’s arrest, but expressed relief that the issue is now behind them. Both Timberlake and Biel are reportedly committed to their marriage, with Biel believing Timberlake to be a “wonderful dad” and affirming they are “a great team.”

Despite the personal challenges, Timberlake recently celebrated the couple’s 12th wedding anniversary during a concert in Montreal. During the performance at the Bell Centre on October 4, Timberlake acknowledged his wife, who was present at the event, with a heartfelt tribute. “It’s also a very special evening for me,” Timberlake announced on stage, referencing their anniversary and expressing affection for Biel.

The couple was married in southern Italy on October 19, 2012, following their formal legal marriage in the United States. Timberlake’s public display of affection was later shared by Biel on social media, further emphasizing their strong partnership even amidst challenges.
