Why does this story matter?
Justin Bieber and Gomez were in a relationship for several years until they decided to break up in 2018. Soon after the breakup, Justin and Hailey got together and eventually tied the knot, too. This led to rumors and speculations about a cheating scandal. With this interview, Hailey has broken her silence for the first time, and Gomez reacted almost immediately.

To give a little background, Hailey recently appeared on Alex Cooper's podcast, Call Her Daddy. She spoke about some unexpected matters during the interview including the private life of her husband and popular singer Justin Bieber and his past with ex Gomez. She also made it clear that she was never romantically involved with Justin when he was in a relationship with Gomez.
Hailey had this to say about Gomez
To recall, Hailey was asked in the interview if she was romantically involved with Justin at the same time as Gomez. She responded saying, "I can say, period, point blank, I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody—that's the end of it." About Gomez, she said, "I respect her; there's no drama, personally" and signed off.
Know what 'Rare' represents: Gomez
Gomez said in the TikTok video, "All I have to say is it's incredibly ironic that I would release something that is all about kind words [because] that's exactly what I want. That's it." She further added, "If you support Rare, I cannot thank you enough but know that you are also representing what it means and that is words matter. Truly matter."
