Since their breakup in 2013, fans of the once-on-again-off-again celebrity couple Julena, a.k.a Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, have been relentlessly rooting for a romantic reconciliation regardless of the fact Bieber began dating now-wife Hailey Bieber in 2016...and then married her in 2018.
Julena fans created a phantom and baseless feud between Hailey Bieber and Gomez, unable to get over the reality that—nearly ten years later—a reunion may not be in the cards.
Unfortunately, what may seem like all-in-good-fun chatter to drama instigators has actually caused Hailey Bieber to be targeted and bullied, despite her many public interviews in which she claims that her husband's former relationship was over far before the two even began dating.
A couple of weeks ago, Gomez even took to TikTok to make an important point:
"Words matter. Truly matter."
In the last few weeks, Gomez and Bieber have both addressed rumors and urged fans to stop spewing their online hate, but perhaps a united front is what the public needs.
Saturday night, Gomez and Bieber posed together at the 2022 Academy Museum Gala, hopefully shutting down the online drama once and for all.
In the photo captured by Tyrell Hampton, the two are seen posing cheek to cheek and obviously more than happy to be in one another's company.
Tyrell Hampton posted the photo to his Instagram which he appropriately captioned, "plot twist."
To state that the photo "broke the internet" may just be an understatement:

We truly hope the photo puts an end to the nonsense.
To quote Gomez:
"...I just want all of you to know, that I hope that you understand that [being kind] is much bigger than anything else."
