Selena Gomez made her first social media appearance following renewed speculation surrounding her rumored feud with Hailey Bieber, the wife of her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber.
Amid swirling headlines suggesting tension, the Rare Beauty founder took to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, June 19, to post a series of affectionate moments with her fiancé, music producer Benny Blanco.
One image showed the couple on a relaxed walk, with Gomez pouting for the camera behind black sunglasses. Blanco, dressed casually in a blue hoodie and shorts, appeared focused on his phone. Another intimate shot featured the Calm Down singer wrapping her arm around Blanco’s neck while he tenderly held and kissed it.
The final snap showed the couple seated at a table, with a dessert in front of them, adding a cozy, date-night vibe to the series.
The timing of Selena’s post raised eyebrows as it followed reports that she and Hailey Bieber had quietly unfollowed each other on Instagram. The two had re-followed one another in 2023 in an apparent effort to shut down long-standing feud rumors— even posing together at a high-profile event to project unity.
However, their recent silent social media move reignited fan speculation. Many followers were quick to claim they had always believed the friendship between Gomez and Bieber was superficial and not sincere.
The cheerful and carefree vibe in Selena’s new pictures with Benny Blanco has since added more fuel to the online chatter, as fans continue to analyze her actions for hidden messages or subtle digs.
While neither Selena nor Hailey has directly addressed the unfollowing, the social media activity has once again placed their alleged feud under the spotlight, proving how closely fans watch their every move.
For now, Gomez appears focused on her relationship with Blanco, using her platform to share love-filled moments amid the ongoing drama.
