Justin Bieber is in a 'great place'.

While the 19-year-old singer recently endured a nightmare week in London where he was late to a concert, collapsed on stage and had a fight with a photographer, Justin's manager Scooter Braun insists the star is fine.

He told E! News: 'There's nothing wrong with him. He's in a great place. Justin is good, really good.'

Meanwhile, it has been claimed Justin's meltdown is because of his split from Selena Gomez in January after around two years together.

A source said: 'He simply hasn't been the same since he split from Selena. It really broke him.

'They were together for such a long time for two people so young. He hasn't quite known what to do without her.

'He is lonely. They kept each other very grounded and understood the level of fame that they both had. Now his friends know he needs their support more than ever.'

Justin's grandmother Kathy Bieber has defended him against accusations he has turned into a bad boy but insists he should put on a free concert for his fans in the UK.

She said: 'I don't think for one moment this is all about him being a bad boy. He's only just turned 19 and he's still learning to cope with the pressures of fame.

'But it's worrying. You read all sorts of things about him ... and he needs to understand some of those so-called friends probably don't have his best interests at heart.

'I know he will be feeling depressed about the way things have gone in London, so maybe it would be a good idea if he were to go back there later and perform free for the fans who feel let down by him.'
