Hold the phone – Justin Bieber’s family just suffered a major loss. His beloved grandfather, Bruce Dale, passed away at the age of 80 on April 24, 2025. And it’s safe to say, Justin’s broken heart is on full display for the world to see.
According to reports, Bruce Dale passed peacefully at the Rotary Hospice in Ontario, surrounded by family. A quiet exit for a man who played a major role in Justin’s life – from hockey games to heart-to-heart chats.
Sources revealed that Justin shared an emotional tribute on Instagram, recalling the sweet memories with his grandpa, including those infamous Friday night hockey games where they’d snack on corn nuts and Skittles. Yeah, they lived for that stuff. “I can’t wait to see u again soon in heaven,” Justin wrote, pouring out his love for his grandfather.
Bruce Dale wasn’t just a family figure – he was a constant presence in Justin’s career too, showing up at premieres, concerts, and even appearing in Bieber’s documentaries like Never Say Never and Seasons. This guy wasn’t just Justin’s grandpa – he was also part of the Bieber brand.
Insiders claim that Bruce, a true family man, leaves behind a legacy that Justin will carry with him. He’s survived by his daughter Pattie Mallette, his three grandkids (including Justin), and six great-grandkids. And yes, that includes Justin’s son, Jack Blues, born in 2024. Talk about a generational bond.
So, while the world says goodbye to Bruce, Justin’s message is clear – it’s not the end. “See you soon in heaven.” This goodbye isn’t forever, it’s just for now.
