Gomez Addresses the Speculation

October 18, 2025: Selena Gomez has seemingly responded to Hailey Bieber after the model addressed rumors of a long-running feud between the two celebrities. In a recent social media post, Gomez downplayed the drama, writing, “She can say whatever she wants. I’m focused on my own life and my happiness.”

Fans have speculated about tensions between Gomez and Bieber for years, fueled by overlapping connections with Justin Bieber and media-driven narratives. Despite the rumors, both stars have rarely commented directly on their relationship—until now.

Hailey Bieber’s Previous Comments

Earlier this month, Hailey spoke briefly about the speculation, stating that she is “not interested in drama” and emphasizing that she values positivity and growth. While she didn’t mention Gomez by name, media outlets interpreted her remarks as addressing the alleged feud.

Gomez’s response appears measured and composed, signaling that she is choosing to rise above the gossip rather than escalate it publicly.

Fans React Online

Social media quickly responded to Gomez’s comments, with many praising her for taking the high road. One fan wrote, “Selena handles this with grace. She’s not letting rumors define her.” Another added, “It’s refreshing to see her focus on herself instead of engaging in negativity.”

Industry observers note that publicized rivalries between celebrities can often be exaggerated or entirely fabricated by the media, and Gomez’s approach reflects a deliberate effort to avoid fueling unnecessary tension.

Focusing on Positivity

Gomez continues to prioritize her music, acting projects, and personal well-being. By addressing the situation with calmness and restraint, she is sending a clear message: her focus remains on her craft and personal growth rather than unverified media stories.

As of now, Hailey Bieber has not publicly responded to Gomez’s statement, leaving fans to speculate whether the matter has been resolved privately or remains ongoing.
