Los Angeles, Sept 29 – US singer-actor Selena Gomez tied the knot with music producer Benny Blanco over the weekend, but it was her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber who unexpectedly became the target of online trolling.
Despite being married to Hailey Bieber since 2018 and now a father, Justin’s social media posts were flooded with comments about Selena’s wedding.
One user wrote under his latest post: “She’s gone forever.”

The remark prompted a response from Gomez’s cousin, Priscilla Marie, who 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 life.”
However, some Reddit users criticized Priscilla’s involvement.
“This is messy. Why would you even comment this and make Selena’s drama-free wedding weekend about Justin again?” one user wrote.
“If I were Selena, I’d ban my family from commenting on this stuff,” another added.
