    Hailey Bieber has blasted the "old, tired narrative" of her supposed feud with Selena Gomez

    A TikTok user known as Courtney had claimed the 28-year-old star 'liked' one of their videos where they were being 'a little shady' towards the 'Only Murders In The Building' actress and her fiance Benny Blanco


    However, Hailey's representative told Us Weekly: "This never happened.

    "This entire story has been fabricated by a content creator looking to capitalise off of an old, tired narrative."

    Last month, the content creator had shared photos from the couple's recent Interview cover shoot.

    She wrote alongside the original post that they "genuinely can't decide which is worst".

    Last week, she claimed Hailey had liked the video along with an alleged screenshot.

    She said in a second video on March 6: "Hailey Bieber herself liked my TikTok. Don't necessarily come for me in the comments, but I was being a little shady to Selena Gomez."

    Hailey's team have shut down the idea she liked the post, while she recently 'liked' Selena and Benny's engagement announcement in December 2024.

    The model previously claimed she has received death threats from fans of Selena, 30, in the years since she tied the knot with her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber in 2018.

    Speaking on YouTube series 'The Circuit' in July 2023, she said: "I don't think this is about me, Hailey Bieber, and Selena Gomez. This is not about... this pitting between two women and division between two women.

    "It's about this vile, disgusting hatred that can come from completely made up and twisted and perpetuated narratives.

    "That can be really dangerous and I think that it's an opportunity to really stand for bringing people together and not being okay with the kind of division that it caused.

    "Because I'm not okay with the kind of division that it caused. I don't like this whole idea of team this person, and team this person; I'm just not about that. I want to be able to bring people together."

    In February 2023, Selena took to social media after hearing that Hailey had received death threats and called upon her fans to "stop" their behaviour.

    She wrote on her Instagram Story: "This isn't what I stand for. No one should have to experience hate or bullying. I've always advocated for kindness and really want this all to stop."
