Justin Bieber, who became a father less than four months ago—something he had longed for—should be enjoying a period of pure happiness. However, this is far from the reality. Instead, he is overwhelmed with jealousy. This has been confirmed by an insider close to the singer, and fans of Selena Gomez share the same sentiment. They believe Justin is acting poorly towards his ex-girlfriend, whom he once referred to as the love of his life.

The announcement of Selena’s engagement to Benny Blanco sparked Justin’s jealousy. A photo of Selena, radiant and hugging her fiancé, hit Justin hard, with a friend of his describing it as “a knife to the heart.” Unable to contain himself, Justin posted a photo shortly after Selena’s engagement news that closely resembled Selena’s photo, but this time it featured Justin embracing his wife, Hailey. Gomez’s fans are convinced that Justin’s post was an attempt to get back at Selena for finding happiness without him. It seems he expected her to grieve their ended relationship indefinitely.

As a reminder, Justin and Selena had an on-again, off-again relationship for eight years, with Bieber being Selena’s first love, according to her. Despite numerous breakups and reconciliations, it was clear to everyone that they were meant to be together and would eventually marry. But things didn’t unfold as fans had anticipated. In 2018, during a break in his relationship with Selena, Justin began a whirlwind romance with Hailey Baldwin (now Hailey Bieber). He quickly proposed and married her later that same year. Selena, on the other hand, admitted that she was unable to date anyone for five years after that, and only began her relationship with Benny Blanco in 2023. Now, with her engagement to Blanco, it seems that Bieber is grappling with delayed regret.
Yet, not everyone is convinced that Selena is as happy as she seems. It was revealed that she delayed the announcement of her engagement for four months to avoid it being seen as an act of revenge on Justin, who found a new partner and became a father in August. It appears that Selena, too, hasn’t fully let go of the past with Justin.
