Pattie Mallette, born April 2, 1975, in Stratford, Ontario, is best known as Justin Bieber’s mother, but her life is a testament to resilience. She endured childhood trauma, substance struggles, and a suicide attempt before finding faith at 17. At 18, she raised Justin as a single mother in low-income housing, nurturing his love for music, which led to his global fame.

Her 2012 autobiography, Nowhere But Up, details her journey of faith and motherhood. While Justin’s rise strained their relationship, they’ve since reconciled. Today, Pattie celebrates his growth, maturity, and deepening faith. She shared on Instagram, “I admire your character and integrity… You are maturing beautifully and wise beyond your years.” Pattie’s story of perseverance and hope continues to inspire many.
