Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are engaged, and the delighted couple shared their news on Instagram earlier this month. Fans couldn’t be more thrilled! Numerous celebrities have congratulated Gomez, 32, in the comments of her recent Instagram post, but keen observers noticed one particular like almost instantly: Hailey Bieber.

The Rhode mogul, 28, who is married to Gomez’s former long-term partner Justin Bieber, showed her support despite the complex history. Gomez and the “Yummy” singer, 30, dated intermittently for nearly eight years, from 2011 to 2018, while Hailey and Justin had an on-and-off relationship between 2014 and 2016, before reuniting and marrying in 2018.

Some of Gomez’s fans criticized the model for her swift reaction to the post, accusing her of being insincere. In response, Hailey’s supporters have taken to Instagram to defend her and condemn the harsh criticism she has faced, particularly as many fans have fueled a rivalry between the Only Murders in the Building star and mom of one over the years.

Hailey Bieber Deserves An 'Apology' For Unfair 'Hate' After Selena Gomez's Engagement News, Fans Say

Earlier this month, Hailey (who shares 4-month-old son Jack with her Grammy-winning husband) shared a stunning new mirror pic in which she donned a chic brown blazer and miniskirt. The style icon also shared other gorgeous selfies and photos to update her 54.1 million followers on her life. She captioned the upload: "business as usual."

Fans headed to the comments section to share their thoughts. "The world owes her an apology. I'm so serious!" one wrote. They added:" I've been saying for years that the level of hate she get was too crazy to be organic, particularly when you check how most of it is based on false assumptions, misconceptions, lies, false narrative... which all got out since she got married by pure coincidence. And now her name appears as an example of how a pr team can pay to effectively tear down someone's reputation?"

The user also "questioned" how "real the hate she got was," and wrote: "If it was truly earned because of what she did or fabricated and/or pushed by someone's team to destroy her." Someone else replied: "Hailey you are so BEAUTIFUL and so so Incredibly INTELLIGENT!!!!! Keeping living your best life and ignore the haters they are so jealous lol." One other noted: "I can't stand how these haters are still active! After her marriage with JB and literally after giving birth - these low life people are so obsessed hating on Hailey."

In an effort to quash any lingering feud rumors with Hailey, the Rare Beauty founder implored her Instagram followers to refrain from attacking the Vogue cover girl on social media last year. Hailey expressed gratitude towards Gomez for speaking out on the matter, admitting that the cyberbullying she endured from many of Gomez's "fans" was emotionally taxing.
