In the days since Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez parted ways, a number of theories for the split have been offered in various corners of the gossip press.
There’s also been persistent flip-flopping by certain outlets about whether Bieber and Gomez are planning to reconcile, while other webloids are floating ancient non-stories in order to bring other big names into the saga.
Bieber and Gomez have said very little themselves, leading many fans to buy into some of the bogus rumors surrounding the breakup.
Gossip Cop is continuing to inquire about the split, and what we’ve heard so far supports the story that it was Gomez’s decision, but far less salacious or dramatic than many outlets would like everyone to believe.
“People are scrambling to create fiction regarding this relationship,” a source close to the singer-actress tells Gossip Cop.
We’re told the central issue was that Gomez was too busy to spend as much time with Bieber as he wanted, and that it became too problematic for the couple to continue.
Whether he was “very needy” and “constantly complaining” for her to “make time for him,” as our source describes the end of their relationship, is a question that only Bieber and Gomez can truly answer.
But it seems unlikely that some of the more scandalous stories suggesting that partying and other women were to blame for Gomez dumping Bieber are actually the most accurate explanations.
Gossip Cop will have updates.
