During the conversation, Justin was asked about his personal life overshadowing acting.

“I don’t know if I agree that the acting goes on the back burner. I think this country and the world, especially this country, has an insatiable appetite for gossip and for sort of clickbait stuff, which is basically, you know, don’t do any research. Don’t look anything up, just if you read it, then it must be true,” he said.

“People that I associate with form opinions based on facts, and not based on kind of, well, bologna, but that’s okay…I understand it as well, because if I see something online that it is something outrageous…like I’m a big Dodger fan. Right. And if I see something online that’s unbelievably outrageous about the Dodgers before I think, ‘Oh, that’s obviously clickbait’ I might actually click on it. So I’m not, you know, impervious to that, either. I think people want to know about other people’s personal affairs, but I would just caution people. I caution my daughter on this all the time. I tell her, I said, ‘you really can’t just believe something because you read it,’” he continued.

“I I’m really happy with where I am. I’m happy with my career. I’m happy with my personal life. I’m healthy, I’m safe. I’m I mean, all of those things. I’m very thankful. For the people who want to dive into the gossip and believe everything, they read, that’s fine too. If they’re getting entertainment from that, I think it sort of comes with the territory, but I’ve also had his view that I will have a public life, but I will be very private about my personal affairs.”

Chrishell Stause recently opened up about how she feels about seeing her ex-husband, Justin Hartley, moving on so soon after their divorce.
