According to UsMagazine.com, Gomez was seen on a boat with her friends living her best life when news broke about the engagement. Bieber and Gomez were a couple from 2011 to 2015, on and off. After the celebrity relationship ended for the last time, Gomez and her circle don’t speak about Bieber. Apparently in the past, Bieber had a habit of making his relationships very public to upset Gomez. By the looks of it, Gomez is more than okay with this recent development.
In celebrity news, there’s no big green monster to be found in Selena Gomez. What are some ways to handle jealousy when your ex moves on with someone new?
Cupid’s Advice:
In some cases it’s hard to see an ex with someone new. As hard as it can be, you have to keep it together. Cupid has some advice on how to handle jealousy when your ex moves on with someone new:
1. Try not to look!: With social media taking over, it can be hard to avoid finding out about an ex and their new partner. As much as you may have the urge to lurk, don’t look. Whether you broke up on good or bad terms, it will hurt the same when you see it. As long as you keep lurking, the more upset and angry you will get. Don’t do it to yourself.

2. “I don’t want to hear it”: While your friends may think they are doing you a favor by telling you your ex’s every move, you have to tell them that you don’t want to hear it. Constantly hearing about your ex won’t help you heal and move on. A good idea is to have a conversation with the people closest to you and have a mutual agreement on not bringing up your ex. This combined with fun with your loved ones will help you have a smooth and healthy healing.

3. It’s not a competition: When seeing your ex with someone else, your first instinct may be to go out there and just jump into something with someone else. Bad idea! Keep your cool and take your time with getting back on the dating scene. Don’t go out and hurt someone else to make your partner jealous. Not only will you hurt someone else, it will only hurt you more. Keep calm and work through it. Sometimes it gets worse before it gets better.
