Ever since Hailey Bieber was first romantically linked to Justin Bieber in 2015, she’s been fighting an uphill battle. Their pairing came hot on the heels of Bieber’s breakup from Selena Gomez —a fan favourite relationship if there ever was one — which meant Hailey Bieber (then Baldwin) was on the backfoot from the very start.
Not only that, but in 2017, they briefly broke up and Justin Bieber reconciled with Gomez, leading many to believe that Hailey’s relationship with Justin was a mere farce, and that Jelena were the true “endgame”.
