Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber are letting bygones be bygones.
The former famous lover of Justin Bieber and his current wife squashed years of “beef” with a carousel off photos.
Over the weekend, Hailey and SelGo got close and cuddly for a series of photos at the second annual Academy Museum Gala.
Hails & SelGo Put The Kibosh On Their Years-Long Feud
The photos absolutely ROCKED the internet, and it was a moment in time fans were definitely not expecting.
Now, a source close to Selena is dishing on WHY the Hollywood beauties made the bold move.
"They were at the same event and were asked to take a photo together," a source close to Selena shares with E! News. "They agreed and decided to clear up the rumors once and for all. They wanted to show that there's really no hate between them and that they are both in a good place. It was a moment and an opportunity to put all of the noise behind them and they took it."
Weeks prior to SelGo and Hailey creating photo evidence of their “good place,” Mrs. Bieber appeared on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast.
Hailey & Selena Both Wanted To Clear Up The Rumors Once & For All
She was adamant there was no drama, tension or beef between her and Selena.
SelGo and JB dated on-and-off over the course of eight years and were America’s sweethearts. Hailey entered the picture throughout the roller-coaster relationship, but is adamant that she never dated her now-husband while he was with ANY woman.
“The timing was very rapid and very fast… that seemed really drastic and really crazy,” she explained of their personal relationship. “There was a lot happening.”
Cooper asked, “Your husband was in a very public relationship, they were kids. People were obsessed with the idea of them. People were confused on the timeline you’re talking about. ‘Is she a homewrecker?’ Were you ever with Justin romantically at the same time as her (Selena).
Hailey Insists She Was Not A "Homewrecker"
“It’s not my character to mess with someone’s relationship. I would just never do that. I was raised better than that,” she said. “I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody. That’s the end of it.”
Hailey and JB got together when she was 18-years-old and he was 22-years-old.
The “Purpose” singer was involved with SelGo, Hailey, Sofia Richie and others throughout his “bad boy” phase.
The couple got engaged in 2018 following Selena and Justin’s last ditch effort to try and make a relationship work in 2017.
Hailey explained a lot of the online hate and backlash comes from diehard fans thinking she “stole” Justin from Selena.
She Didn't Steal Justin From Anyone
“It was the right thing for them to close that door. They were not in a relationship at that time. It closed a chapter and I think it was the best thing for him TO move on and be engaged and get married and move on with his life in that way,” the Rhode Beauty creator explained.
Hailey admitted she and the Rare Beauty founder have spoken since all the drama unfolded.
“It’s all respect. It’s all love,” she said while adding there is “no drama personally” between her and Selena.
“Neither of us owe anybody anything except respect. I respect her a lot, and I think there are no expectations [between us]. I respect her,” Hailey said about SelGo. ““Everybody on our side knows what happened, and we’re good, and we can walk away from it with clarity and respect.”
