Some people interpret the 'Only Murders in the Building' star's response as an agreement to the claim, while others think that the singer doesn't like her weight is being judged online.

AceShowbiz - It's been years since Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber split for good, but some fans still can't stop talking about it. A TikTok user has now speculated that the former Disney darling's weight was affected by her relationship with her ex-boyfriend.
A clip posted on November 29 featured a montage of throwback photos of the 30-year-old singer/actress flashing her abs in different clothes and on various occasions. The video was labeled, "The reason why Selena is always skinny when she dates Justin."
At the end of the video, the user included a screenshot of Selena's alleged reply to a Jelena fan who was sad over the end of her relationship with Justin. "No love," the "Wizards of Waverly Place" star allegedly wrote back to the fan. She added, "He's rather models. I'm just too normal."
In the caption, the person who posted the TikTok video claimed that Justin, who has been married to Hailey Bieber a.k.a. Hailey Baldwin since 2018, "rathers models" and pitied Selena calling her, "My poor baby." In the comments, Selena simply responded with a pensive face emoji.
Selena's reaction to the video has apparently sent confusing message to fans. Some people interpreted her response as an agreement to the TikTok's claim. Many others, however, took it as her being disappointed that her weight was being judged online.
"Maybe she's upset you guys are constantly bringing up her body changing over the years," one fan wrote in the comments. Another weighed in, "Sad face because YOURE still discussing about her past like you know her." A third user defended Selena, "Her weight shouldn't even be a subject of conversation."
Selena and Justin dated on-and-off from 2010 until 2018. In her new Apple + documentary "Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me" which was released in November, she called the breakup the "best thing" that ever happened to her.
"Everything was so public. I felt haunted by a past relationship that no one wanted to let go of," she divulged of her feelings. "Then I just moved past it, and I wasn't afraid anymore. I feel like I had to go through the worst possible heartbreak ever and then just forgetting everything at the drop of the hand, it was really confusing. But I just think that needed to happen and ultimately it was the best thing that ever happened to me."
