Justin Timberlake has temporarily bid adieu to his tailored suits and ties. Fresh off the heels of wrapping up his extensive international tour, the crooner behind the hit "Cry Me a River" indulged in some well-deserved relaxation. He captured this leisurely moment by sharing an Instagram Story featuring himself clad in a cozy sweatshirt, emblazoned with the phrase, "I'm not doing s--t today. Mission accomplished." To further emphasize his state of blissful inaction, Timberlake appended three checkmarks in the caption of his August 4th post.
Jessica Biel, the 44-year-old's spouse and mother to their sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 4, was equally ecstatic about his return home. On her Instagram Stories, the former 7th Heaven actress posted a snapshot of Timberlake and his tour companions disembarking from their private jet, accompanied by the caption, "So happy they're home!"
Timberlake's journey on the road had indeed been a lengthy one. On July 31st, he penned a heartfelt message on his Instagram, reflecting on the conclusion of "these two incredible years" and looking ahead with anticipation. "This has been the most exhilarating, emotional, fulfilling, physically taxing, and, at moments, arduous adventure," he continued, revealing that he had been diagnosed with Lyme disease, a chronic tick-borne infection, amidst his tour. "If you've personally battled this illness or know someone who has, you're well-aware of its relentless and debilitating impact, both mentally and physically," he shared.
Despite grappling with "immense nerve pain" and "extreme fatigue" due to his diagnosis, Timberlake expressed his reluctance to halt his tour, as the thrill of performing outweighed any fleeting stress. "It's a vibration of frequency unparalleled, sacred to my very core," the former *NSYNC member added. "While I'm uncertain about my future on stage, I will forever treasure this journey and all those before it. They've been the stuff of legends for me."
Timberlake concluded his heartfelt post with a tender note to his family, stating, "To Jess, Silas, and Phin... nothing compares to your unwavering love. You are the very beat of my heart and the sanctuary of my home."
In response, Biel demonstrated her unwavering support by reposting Timberlake's statement alongside a photo of him embracing their eldest son Silas. Over this touching image, the 43-year-old showered it with a cascade of red heart emojis.
Joining Timberlake in publicly disclosing their Lyme disease diagnosis are fellow celebrities such as Avril Lavigne, Bella Hadid, Shania Twain, and Justin Bieber.
