Why fans are convinced Justin Bieber reacted to Selena Gomez’s engagement news with secret message

Fans are convinced Justin Bieber sent Selena Gomez a “secret message” following her engagement to Benny Blanco.

On Monday — just days after his off-and-on ex of eight years shared the news of her engagement — the “Baby” hitmaker took to Instagram to post an up-close selfie of his wife, Hailey Bieber, kissing the side of his face during their trip to Costa Rica.

However, it wasn’t the photo that intrigued fans — it was the choice of song he included with the post.

Bieber, 30, attached Lizzy McAlpine’s “All My Ghosts,” an emotional song about sweet memories with an ex from the past that the singer can’t seem to shake.

Certain lyrics particularly stuck out to fans. “I can see it now, the wedding of the year / I can see it now, he stands up there and wipes his tears,” the lyrics read. “I can see it now, when all my ghosts disappear / I can see it crystal clear.”

Other lyrics include, “Oh, all my ghosts are with me / I know you feel them too.”

Fans used the lyrics to push the theory that Bieber was cryptically trying to reach out to Gomez, 31.

Commenting directly under the post, one convinced fan said, “Guys listen to that song well and you will know Justin is trying to give sel a message.”

A second quipped, “Of course he was gonna post something now .”

“Y’all pls why did Justin Bieber post a pic of him and his wife with all my ghosts by Lizzy mcalpine a few days after Selena got engaged,” a third person tweeted. “you can’t make this up.”

“I don’t know if Justin is for real or joking at this point,” an additional seemingly perplexed user added.

This is not the first time fans have related a song to Justin and Gomez’s relationship following their split.

After he released his 2021 single “Ghost” — which explores the topic of losing someone you love — fans were convinced he wrote it about the Rare Beauty founder.

Bieber explained the meaning behind the single in a commercial with Dolby, saying, “My objective with making the song was to make people song that there is hope, and the trauma and the hurt that you feel isn’t gonna last forever.”

“It takes time to heal. There will be a moment when that pain doesn’t hurt so bad. Know that that feeling will subside.”
