Justin Bieber reportedly hopes his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez is happy following the news of her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco. Sources revealed that while the singer is happily married to Hailey Baldwin and focused on their baby son, Jack, the engagement announcement left him feeling “stung” momentarily, as it marked the “end of an era” in his life.
Justin and Selena famously dated on and off from 2010 to 2018 before moving on with their lives. Selena recently shared news of her engagement on Instagram, showing off her stunning marquise-cut diamond ring, and Justin’s wife, Hailey, subtly showed support by liking the post.
Insiders stated that although Justin has no intention of rekindling ties with Selena, her engagement brought a sense of finality to their past. “Justin is only 30, but he’s lived a full life, and this news made him reflect on how much time has passed,” a source said. Despite the brief sting, he wishes Selena happiness and hopes this milestone will put an end to fans obsessing over their past relationship.
Justin and Hailey, who married in September 2018 just months after his final split with Selena, have faced years of speculation and online chatter about his previous relationship. Hailey’s recent gesture toward Selena’s engagement post seems to echo Justin’s sentiment of moving forward peacefully.
