Justin Bieber Confirms His Engagement To Hailey Baldwin With Instagram Statement

Responding for the very first time, Shawn said that he reached out to the 21-year-old model as soon the news broke, revealing: “I texted Hailey the day of and I said congrats," he said. "That's what it is."

He went on to crush rumours that there’s any bad blood between him and Justin, maintaining that the 24-year-old has always been a “massive’ influence on his music: “Everybody wants there to be more — there’s not,” he clarified.

And while plenty of people figured that his and Hailey’s appearance at the Met Gala together meant they were a couple, Shawn has always insisted that they only ever went to the event together as friends.

At the time, he told People: “No, we were not making our big debut. We were both asked to walk by Tommy Hilfiger. Obviously Hailey and I are friends, and it was just really cool for me to be able to walk with her because she's a vet and it was my first year, so it kind of took the pressure off a little bit.”

Now the only question we have is if Shawn will be one of the lucky few who nabs an invite to the wedding of the decade.
