Fans are certain that Justin Bieber has left a "secret" message for ex-lover Selena Gomez.
Wizards of Waverley Place star Selena, 32, has been all loved in recent days after boyfriend Benny Blanco finally popped the question. Since then, the pair have been inundated with messages of love and support from fellow A-listers, including Taylor Swift and Gordon Ramsay.
But fans are now convinced that a minute detail could be interpreted as a hidden message to the singer from her former lover Justin, 30. It came after Justin's wife Hailey congratulated the happy couple amid rumours of tension between the two before the announcement.

Selena broke the news of her engagement via an Instagram post, which showed the happy moment when record producer Benny proposed during an evening picnic. She beamed from ear to ear with smiles, as she penned in the caption: "Forever begins now."
But days later, former partner Justin, who was romantically linked with Selena from 2010 to 2018, appeared to drop a hint when he uploaded a snap of himself and wife Hailey. In the snap, the couple seemed loved up as model Hailey gave her darling husband a kiss on the cheek, whilst Justin stared into the camera.
However, while the snap may be unrelated, fans of the One Time singer were left convinced the post was deliberately made to catch the attention of his ex Selena, through the song chosen to play in the background. He included the song "All My Ghosts" by star Lizzy McAlpine, and fans have taken the lyrical content of the song and interpreted it as a dig towards Selena and Benny.
The lyrics read: "I can see it now, The wedding of the year. I can see it now, he stands up there and wipes his tears.
"I can see it now, when all my ghosts disappear. I can see it crystal clear."
Fans of the What Do You Mean star are now certain that the song choice was in reference to his former lover, flocking to social media to make their thoughts known. One user said on a Reddit page: "He's really saying, 'Damn, I missed out; I wish that was me' - without saying it."
A second profile chimed in: "The lyrics of the song he added. He's doing it on purpose at this point." Whilst a stunned third account simply wrote the word: "Unbelievable."
It comes after Hailey and Selena appeared to bury the hatchet between the two, amid huge speculation of a rift between the stars. Quashing the unconfirmed beef between the pair, Hailey took to her Instagram to like the heartwarming post from Selena announcing her happy news.
Fans of the stars have now said that this has put an end to their rivalry as they look to move past this chapter of "animosity" between the two. However, as The Sun reports, some other social media users were not fully convinced of Hailey's intentions.
"This is a nice gesture," one fan wrote. "I’m happy for Selena, and I hope this marks a complete break from the social media nonsense of the past."
However, a less optimistic account hit back at the claims and urged users to be realistic. "Let's not pretend that there hasn't been animosity on both sides in the past," they said.
