Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez news 2016: Gomez and Bieber taking a break from music

After the public Instagram feud between singer/songwriters Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, the artists seem to be going low-key. The former couple will reportedly be taking a break from their music careers but for different reasons.
Gomez recently announced that she will be taking time off work to focus on her health. "As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways," Gomez told People. "I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus which can present their own challenges," the singer added.
The star thanked her fans for all their support but she said that she needed to do this for herself to maintain her health and happiness.
Her announcement was delivered shortly after she fought with her former boyfriend Justin Bieber on Instagram.
Bieber, on the other hand, is reportedly lying low after receiving backlash for posting photos with his current girlfriend, Sofia Richie. Inquisitr suggested that the pop singer could be struggling with fame. His stress from touring and the demands of fans might be responsible for the actor's sudden desire to take a break from his superstar life. According to the news outlet, Bieber will no longer be doing meet-and-greets.
Many believed that the star is currently finding his spirituality. Bieber was reportedly spotted walking barefoot in parks, climbing trees and feeding squirrels. A lot of fans have gotten upset because of his peculiar behavior but a number of them have also defended him.
Based on his recent Facebook post, it seems like Bieber is just taking breaks between tours to catch a breather. He posted on Facebook, "Love you. Just taking a break for me sometimes. See everyone on BBC tonight and tour next month. Thanks."
