Hailey Bieber is responding to a TikTok video suggesting she's feuding with Selena Gomez.

In a post shared on Friday, March 6, a TikTok user who goes by Courtney claimed that Hailey, 28, "liked" one of their previous videos in which they were being "a little shady" about Gomez, 32, and her fiancé, Benny Blanco. The clip poked fun at photos from the couple's recent cover shoot for Interview magazine.

However, a rep for Hailey is shutting that down.

“This never happened,” Hailey's rep told Us Weekly in a statement on March 9. “This entire story has been fabricated by a content creator looking to capitalize off of an old, tired narrative.”

In Courtney's original TikTok post, shared Feb. 14, they wrote, “I genuinely can't decide which is the worst,” over a series of photos from the Interview shoot.

“Sorry to do this to everyone but I had to look at these photos so you do too,” the TikToker wrote over the clip, adding in the caption: “This is the WORST.”

Nearly a month later, Courtney claimed in her March 6 TikTok post that Hailey had liked the video, and included an alleged screenshot of the notification (which showed the model's verified TikTok account) to prove it.

"Hailey Bieber herself liked my TikTok,” Courtney said in the 6 video. “Don’t necessarily come for me in the comments, but I was being a little shady to Selena Gomez.”

Hailey has publicly expressed support for Gomez, who dated Hailey's now-husband Justin Bieber off and on from 2010 to 2018, multiple times in the past. In September 2018, Justin and Hailey got married at a civil ceremony in New York and a year later celebrated with a larger ceremony in Bluffton, S.C.

When Gomez shared the news that she and Blanco, 37, were engaged in December 2024, Hailey "liked" the announcement post.

In September 2022, the model addressed ongoing rumors of a feud between herself and Gomez during a conversation on Alex Cooper's podcast. The model told Cooper that it is "not [her] character to mess with someone's relationship," and said that it's "all love" between both her Gomez.

"I can say, period, point blank, I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody — that's the end of it," Hailey explained about the timeline of her relationship with Justin, 30.

Weeks after her Call Her Daddy interview, Hailey and Gomez posed for photos together at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures' 2nd annual gala in Los Angeles. The duo appeared to be on good terms. In one photo, Gomez could be seen with her hand on Hailey's leg, and in another, they stood together smiling.
