As you’ve no doubt heard by now, Justin Bieber is engaged to Hailey Baldwin.
And unlike the many, many other times that the media has claimed Justin is getting engaged, this time it’s the real deal.
Yes, Bieber and Baldwin have confirmed their engagement, which means the Summer of Wealthy Early-Twentysomethings Getting Engaged to People They’ve Only Been Dating For a Few Months is in full swing.
And it’s just as annoying as it sounds.
Naturally, fans have been wondering what Justin’s most famous ex, Selena Gomez, thinks of all this.
We’ve heard rumors that Selena is pissed about the engagement, which would certainly make sense.
Then again, there also been reports that Gomez is glad to be rid of Bieber for good and actually feels bad for Baldwin.
As is so often the case with this sort of thing, it seems that the truth is less interesting than the rumors.
According to People magazine — probably the most reliable outlet to report on Selena’s reaction — the singer simply couldn’t care less about the state of Justin’s love life.
“They haven’t spoken in months,” a source tells the publication.
“She hasn’t been talking about him since they ended things again earlier this year.”
Obviously, no one will know for sure what Selena makes of the situation unless she decides to speak out on the matter herself.
But this take sounds about right.
By most accounts, Selena wasn’t too broken up following her latest split with Justin, and she finally realized they just weren’t right for each other.
After the sixth or seventh breakup, you probably stop thinking of the other person as your one and only.
Besides, Selena’s career is going better than ever these days, and sources close to the singer says she’s the happiest she’s ever been.
She may have experienced a pang of sadness upon realizing the ex she dated longer than anyone else is getting married.
But we’re guessing it didn’t last long.
And if Selena ever doubts that she dodged a bullet, she need only look at a pic of the mustache Bieber is rocking these days.
That thing is truly unfortunate.
