Billie Eilish’s mother shares a touching message
The following day, Billie’s mother shared her own photos and videos on Instagram alongside a heartfelt message. “One of the most touching moments ever. It sounds crazy, but we watch our children develop these deep deep connections to artists who move them and usually there’s nothing in our power to do. But we buy them records and maybe buy them a ticket to a concert, or a movie of a concert in our case because we couldn’t afford to see an actual concert. Watching this crazy unimaginable dream come true over many years is so incredible. I’m so grateful to Justin Bieber for the kindness he has shown Billie and to our whole family and to Hailey who makes so many things wonderful and possible (sic),” she wrote.Hailey Baldwin responded in the comments section, writing “so special” and adding a red heart. What started as Hailey Bieber’s moment on stage ultimately became one of the most memorable surprises of Coachella 2026.
