Hailey Bieber has had a tough year after constantly being pitted against actress Selena Gomez. The model opened up in an emotional Instagram story post. 

The Hailey Vs Selena drama has been going on for years and started because Selena previously dated Hailey's husband Justin Bieber. But things got out of control when the model faced backlash after fans believed she was making fun of Selena’s eyebrow lamination mishap.

The situation ended up so bad that Hailey had to reach out to Selena and ask for her help because she was receiving so many death threats. The actress took to social media and pleaded with fans to be kinder to Hailey. Everything seemed to quiet down but fans are now accusing Hailey of copying Selena with her latest cooking show 'What's in my Kitchen.'

It seems to have taken its toll on Hailey as she shared an emotional statement on her Instagram stories, it read “I like to make jokes about how I feel because sometimes it’s easier than admitting I’m having a hard time, 

“But truthfully since 2023 started I have had some of the saddest, hardest moments I’ve ever had in my adult life and my mind and emotions have been fragile to say the least.” 

“And I know so many other people feel the same way I feel, so just know you’re not alone. That being said, let’s keep being there for one another. Let’s be there for loved ones and friends and family and strangers.”

“Let’s just be there for people.. let’s keep showing up for each other even when it’s hard. We’re better together.”
