Selena Gomez breaks silence on past relationships, including ex Justin Bieber: 'I’ve been guilty, though...'

Selena Gomez, Hollywood’s prominent singer and actress, has been garnering headlines after she engaged to producer Benny Blanco and the humongous success of their first joint album.

In a recent interview, the influential personality spoke about her past relationships, including her ex, Justin Bieber. She candidly spoke about the mistakes she made when she was with Justin. “I’ve been guilty, though, to start. I think for me, I necessarily felt like in other situations of mine I was very reactive. I think that’s why I was alone for five years because I really needed to collect myself," said Selena at Jay Shetty’s podcast On Purpose, which she attended with Blanco.

She also acknowledged and spoke about how her relationship with Blanco has shown a positive outlook. “I think in the past, that’s why I said to him all the time 10 years ago it’s not that I wouldn’t have wanted to be with you, I just wouldn’t have been in the right headspace, and I don’t think you deserved what I had gone through before,” she shared.

“I’ve learned a lot of lessons and I’ve made mistakes, and I just want this to be right,” she said, adding, “For me, that was a lesson that I had to learn.”  Selena and Blanco went public with their relationship in late 2023 and the singer has valued the balance of the relationship deeply. “I think girls can equally want to be right. For me, it was really difficult in the past, and he’s made it unbelievably easy so that if I even get to the point where I’m so frustrated, he’s like very quick to understand,” Selena shared.
