The celebrity world is in absolute shock as whispers of a brewing drama within the Bieber family circle start spilling out into the open. In a twist no one saw coming, Pattie Mallette, mother of pop superstar Justin Bieber, has reportedly cut ties with daughter-in-law Hailey Bieber and is secretly reconnecting with Justin’s famous ex, Selena Gomez.
Yes, you read that right. The internet is on fire, and fans of both Selena and Justin are scrambling for answers as rumors swirl that Pattie has unfollowed Hailey on social media and reached out to the former Disney star in private. The move has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and reignited old speculations about where loyalties truly lie within the Bieber family.
Let’s unpack everything we know about this behind-the-scenes bombshell.
A History of Loyalty: Pattie and Selena’s Unbreakable Bond
Long before Hailey Baldwin became Mrs. Bieber, Selena Gomez held a special place in both Justin’s heart and his mother’s life. Fans will remember that during the Jelena era, Pattie was publicly supportive of Selena, frequently praising her kindness and strength in interviews.
At one point, Pattie even referred to Selena as “a sweetheart” and “part of the family.” Their bond seemed unshakable — until Justin’s whirlwind rekindled romance and sudden marriage to Hailey in 2018.
After the wedding, many speculated that Pattie’s relationship with Hailey was cordial but distant. While she publicly welcomed Hailey, insiders claimed that Pattie “never fully warmed up” to Justin’s new wife and struggled with how quickly everything moved.
The Unfollow That Shook the Internet
The drama escalated when internet detectives noticed something strange: Pattie Mallette had unfollowed Hailey Bieber on Instagram. In the world of celebrity social media, that’s a power move.
Fans immediately took to Twitter and TikTok, posting screenshots and speculating wildly about what went down behind the scenes. Was it a slip of the finger? Or a deliberate message?
Even more eyebrow-raising? Pattie still follows Selena Gomez. And not only that — sources claim she recently reached out to Selena privately through mutual contacts.
Private Conversations and Rekindled Friendships?
According to a source close to Selena’s camp, Pattie “never stopped caring for Selena” and had been quietly cheering her on from a distance. Now, after months of alleged tension between Justin and Hailey, Pattie is rumored to have reached out to offer her support.
The source revealed: “Pattie has always loved Selena. They’ve exchanged a few messages recently, just catching up and being there for each other. It’s nothing romantic or meddling — just old friends reconnecting.”
But is it really that innocent? Fans aren’t so sure.
The Hailey Factor: Trouble in Paradise?
This bombshell comes amid ongoing rumors that Justin and Hailey’s marriage has hit a rough patch. Despite their polished public appearances, sources close to the couple claim that behind closed doors, things haven’t been as perfect as they seem.
Earlier this year, speculation reached a boiling point when Hailey posted a cryptic message about “feeling isolated” and “losing trust in people.” Now, with Pattie reportedly distancing herself, fans wonder if this is yet another sign that trouble is brewing in Bieber paradise.
Some have even theorized that Pattie’s sudden move could be the result of Justin confiding in his mom about marital issues — and her wanting to reconnect with someone she once trusted: Selena.
Fans Divided: Team Hailey or Team Selena?
As expected, fan bases have exploded into debate.
Jelena shippers are celebrating the possibility of Selena reentering Justin’s orbit, while Hailey supporters are slamming Pattie for being disloyal. Twitter is flooded with memes, reaction videos, and viral threads dissecting every detail.
“Pattie knew who the real queen was all along,” one fan tweeted.
“Imagine your mother-in-law unfollowing you and DM’ing your husband’s ex. Couldn’t be me,” another joked.
What’s Next for the Biebers?
Neither Pattie Mallette, Hailey Bieber, nor Selena Gomez have officially commented on the rumors — but insiders say tensions are rising, and the situation behind the scenes is “far more complicated than fans realize.”
Will this spark a public confrontation? Will Hailey address the unfollow? Could Selena and Pattie’s reconnection lead to even more chaos in Bieberland? One thing’s for sure: this celebrity saga is far from over, and we’ll be watching every messy moment.
