Here’s why:

Just a day ago on May 20, the “Rhode Skin” founder was on the cover of “Vogue”, making it her first solo cover of the magazine and her husband, Justin Bieber shared on social media that he once told her she will never be on the cover of the magazine.

He captioned the post: “Yo, this reminds me of when Hailey and I got into a huge fight. I told Hails that she would never be on the cover of 'Vogue'.

“Yikes, I know, so mean. For some reason, because I felt disrespected, I thought I gotta get even,” he wrote.

Fans of the “Sorry” hitmaker slammed him for saying that, since it was Hailey’s big moment and called him out for saying that his wife.

However, in hopes of diffusing the situation, Justin re-edited the caption to just a few emojis, which did not work.

Fans commented about Gomez’s Instagram story, expressing that Gomez is a kind person regardless of the history that the two women share.

A social media user commented, “Selena Gomez is really a girl’s girl cause she went through the same emotional abuse with JB and is rooting for Hailey.”

“Can’t wait for these two queens to work together and leave Justin Bieber spiralling in his own drama,” another user wrote.

While another user added: “It’s obvious that Selena posted the message in her stories for Hailey, especially liking her photo. I’d love to see them being friends.”
