Surrounded by 170 close friends and family, the ceremony blended glamor with intimacy. Among the star-studded guest list were Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, and Paris Hilton, who cheered on the happy couple. Selena shared stunning photos from her big day, showing her in a dreamy gown and beaming beside Benny. Fans flooded social media with congratulations, calling the wedding “magical” and “so Selena.”
Justin Bieber’s Basketball Photos Ignite Speculation On the very same day, Justin Bieber uploaded a series of pictures playing basketball in Los Angeles. While to most it looked like an ordinary post, longtime fans of “Jelena” — the nickname
for Justin and Selena during their eight-year on-and-off romance — immediately began speculating. Some called it a “shady dig” at Selena’s wedding, while others brushed it off as coincidence. Still, the timing was enough to spark chatter across Reddit, Instagram, and X, once again pulling Justin into Selena’s love life even though both have long moved on.
Priscilla DeLeon’s ‘Messy’ Response Goes Viral
The conversation escalated when Selena’s cousin, Priscilla DeLeon, responded to a fan’s emotional comment under Justin’s post. The fan wrote, “She’s gone forever,” implying that Selena had permanently moved on. Priscilla, who has more than 215k Instagram followers, replied: “She’s finally in a place where peace matters more than the past. I just hope people stop dragging her name and let her live.”
Her words, though later deleted, quickly made rounds online. Fans branded it “messyyy,” interpreting it as a rare public acknowledgment from Selena’s family about the toll constant comparisons with Justin have taken. Some even suggested the comment hinted that Selena had struggled longer than fans knew to completely let go of her past relationship.
Selena And Justin’s History Still Shadows Them
Selena and Justin dated on and off between 2010 and 2018 after being introduced by their managers. Their relationship defined an era of pop culture, from red carpet appearances like their debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party to countless breakup rumors and reconciliations. Even seven years after their final split, many fans still romanticise the idea of them reuniting.
However, Justin has been married to Hailey Bieber since 2018, and the couple are now parents to a one-year-old son, Jack Blues. Selena, on the other hand, has been happily dating Benny Blanco since 2023, describing him in interviews as one of her biggest sources of joy and stability.
