In a stunning revelation, insiders close to Justin Bieber have revealed that the pop sensation “won’t stop blaming himself” for the recent emotional breakdown of his ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez. The two have a long and tumultuous history, having dated on and off for years before finally parting ways. Despite moving on with his life and marriage to Hailey Baldwin, it seems Bieber can’t shake the guilt he feels over Gomez’s struggles.
Sources claim that Bieber has been deeply affected by news of Gomez’s recent challenges, which have been playing out in the public eye. Although the pair has been apart for years, the bond they shared during their relationship was significant, and Bieber reportedly feels responsible for some of the pain she’s enduring now. “Justin has always cared deeply for Selena,” a source close to the singer shared. “He knows their relationship wasn’t perfect, and he can’t help but feel like he played a role in what she’s going through now.”
Gomez has been open about her battles with mental health, having checked into treatment facilities in the past to address anxiety, depression, and the pressures of life under the spotlight. Her recent breakdown has sparked an outpouring of support from fans and fellow celebrities, but it has also resurfaced old wounds for Bieber, who is reportedly haunted by the way things ended between them.
“He wishes he could go back and make things right, but he knows that’s not possible,” the insider continued. “Still, it doesn’t stop him from feeling like he could have done more to help her or to prevent her from getting hurt.”
Bieber’s feelings of guilt have reportedly taken a toll on his own well-being, with those close to him concerned about how deeply he’s internalizing Gomez’s struggles. “He’s been trying to focus on his own life and his marriage, but it’s hard when he keeps thinking about Selena and what she’s going through,” the source added.
As both Bieber and Gomez navigate their individual paths, it’s clear that the past still weighs heavily on them. While time may heal some wounds, the emotional scars of their relationship continue to linger, leaving Bieber in a state of self-blame for the breakdown of someone he once loved deeply.
