The British tabloid revealed that Gomez allegedly said yes in August, but the two parties chose to wait to announce the news for fear it would be linked to the birth of her ex, Justin Bieber‘s first child.
Jack Blues, Justin and model Hailey Bieber‘s child, was born at the end of August, according to a post by the singer on Instagram.
“They got engaged in August, and Selena didn’t want her engagement to be associated in any way with Bieber. They knew that would happen,” a source told Daily Mail.
“Selena knew there would be stories claiming she got engaged to distract from Justin’s baby news, or that people would say she did it to get over him,” the source added.
Fortunately, the reaction from internet users to Gomez’s engagement was quite positive, with many celebrities celebrating the news. Even Taylor Swift admitted she would love to be the “flower girl” at the actress’s wedding.
