Why Justin Bieber fans are convinced his mom 'sent message to Selena Gomez' after her wedding

Fans of Justin Bieber are convinced his mother 'sent a message' to Selena Gomez after she married Benny Blanco.

The celebrity couple tied the knot in a glitzy black-tie ceremony at a private 70-acre estate just north of Santa Barbara, in California, on Saturday (September 27).

Taking to Instagram to share the news with their fans, Blanco posted a series of photos from the wedding with the caption: "I married a real life Disney princess."

Blanco donned a sleek tux, swapping the traditional white shirt for a bold blue tinted one with a matching pocket square for the big day, while Gomez wore a fitted, high-neck white gown with ruffled detailing for big occasion.

While many have been left mesmerised by the wedding snaps, others online are pointing out a seemingly cryptic message by Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette.

The 'Baby' singer and Wizards of Waverly Place star dated from 2010 to 2018, with some people on the internet believing Pattie's recent Instagram post is a 'message' aimed at Gomez.

Captioning a post of a series of photos of Bieber, including one of the musician wearing a t-shirt with the words 'pray for me', Pattie wrote: "We’re cheering you on and praying for you always Justin.

"I declare freedom, strength, clarity, and healing over you Justin. Every chain of fear, confusion, heaviness, and pain—be broken in Jesus’ name."

She added: "Holy Spirit, surround him with truth, light, and protection. Heal every wound in his heart, mind and body, seen and unseen, restore what’s been stolen, and cover him in WHOLENESS.

"Fill him to overflowing with Your love and comfort. Continue to raise him up as a voice for Your Kingdom, unshaken and on fire for You Lord. Silence every voice that doesn’t come from You, and let his life be a bold witness of Your power, love, and healing grace. Say amen if you agree."

Many online have been quick to point out they believe this is in response to Gomez's wedding, with one person penning: "His mom knew his feelings to Selena since her wedding is tomorrow."

And a second added: "Nothing, it's just a Selena's wedding."

However, many were quick to offer their well-wishes amid fans' worry over Bieber's social media posts in recent months.

One fan wrote: "I'm sending you a big hug and I hope that one day people will realize they're fuelling a spiral of miscommunication and creating fabricated stories."
