Although her decision was met with mixed responses as some wanted the American athlete to carry on while others applauded her exit.Showing his support for her decision, Bieber penned a heartfelt message to Biles on Instagram.“Nobody will ever understand the pressures you face! I know we don’t know each other but I’m so proud of the decision to withdraw,” the “Holy” singer wrote in support of Biles.“It’s as simple as- what does it mean to gain the whole world but forfeit your soul,” he added, quoting Mark 8:36. “Sometimes our no’s are more powerful than our yes’s. When what you normally love starts to steal your joy it’s important we take a step back to evaluate why.”“People thought I was crazy for not finishing the purpose tour but it was the best thing I could have done for my mental health!! So proud of you @simonebiles,” Bieber added.It could be recalled that the Canadian star made headlines in 2017 when he canceled the remaining dates for his Purpose tour to focus on his well-being.
