Singer-songwriter Justin Bieber apparently seems to be ‘stung’ by the news of his first love, actress-singer Selena Gomez's engagement to American record producer and songwriter Benny Blanco.
The ‘Let Me Love You’ singer dated Selena, 32, on and off from 2010 to 2018, reports ‘Mirror.co.uk’.
The same year they broke up for good he went on to walk down the aisle with model Hailey Baldwin, whom he now shares four-month-old son Jack with.
Though both appear to be happy with other partners these days, and Justin married someone else first, he is still said to have been left 'stung' by Selena's announcement and reportedly feels it officially marks the 'end of an era'.
As Mirror.co.uk reports, Benning, who has released singles for both Selena and Justin, is supposed to have proposed to her a few months ago-after little more than a year together-down on one knee in August.
But the couple, according to sources, refrained from making the news public as it was the same month Justin and Hailey welcomed their first child. And Selena did not want her engagement to be seen as 'turning the attention away from Justin's baby or to get one up on him'.
Selena made public her engagement last week when she posted a shot of her massive diamond ring to her 423 million followers on Instagram.
She captioned the post: "Forever begins now." New dad Justin is said to hope Selena is 'happy'. Although he hasn't publicly congratulated her, a source told the Daily Mail, "Justin is married and has a kid. We all know that, but when he heard that Selena was engaged, he'll even admit it stung for a brief second. Because even though they will never be friends or date again or anything like that, it is officially the end of an era".
Benny and Selena have been in a relationship since June 2023, but didn't confirm their romance until December of that year.
