Did Selena Gomez react to Justin and Hailey Bieber's baby news?
Selena Gomez has not publicly commented on the arrival of Justin and Hailey Bieber’s son, Jack Blues, contrary to social media speculation. The Biebers announced their baby’s birth on August 23, leading some fans to search for a response from Gomez, who has been involved in past controversies with the couple.
A source told People, “The pregnancy was something that they very much wished and prayed for. The day they found out that Hailey was pregnant was the best ever for Justin. He was over the moon with excitement.” The announcement was met with widespread celebration from the Biebers’ fans.
In the aftermath, some online users believed Gomez had responded subtly by commenting on an Instagram post that read, “Wish for the happiness of your enemies, for if they are happy, they are your enemy no more.” The comment allegedly made by Gomez was reportedly: “So true and it makes me so happy.” However, there is no verified evidence of this comment, and it may have been fabricated or removed.
Previously, in response to speculation and drama surrounding the Biebers’ announcement, Gomez disabled comments on her Instagram profile to manage the situation. “I disabled all my comments on my photos on Instagram for only my friends. So I think I’ve created boundaries to help me,” Gomez explained to TODAY’s Hoda Kotb. She described the move as empowering, stating, “I felt empowered by doing that, by saying, ‘This is just for me.’”
