The Insider’s Perspective
An insider revealed that while Bieber is happy for Gomez, he couldn’t shake off a sense of finality. “It stung for a brief second because even though they’ll never be friends or date again, it marks the official end of an era,” the source said. “His past is so connected with Selena, and now that she is engaged, he is married and a father, it’s a bit of a shock to the system that everyone is getting older.”
Justin Bieber’s Reaction
Justin Bieber has not yet publicly reacted to Gomez’s engagement news, but his wife, Hailey, showed her support by leaving a heart on the singer’s post. Insiders suggest that Bieber might think this announcement will finally put an end to fans’ stanning for the relationship. After posting a photo of himself with Hailey, some fans speculated whether the song choice—“All My Ghosts” by Lizzy McAlpine—hints at a cryptic message reflecting on his feelings about Gomez’s engagement. Lyrics like “I can see it now, the wedding of the year” and “when all my ghosts disappear” seem to suggest a nod to his past relationship.
