It seems to be the summer of love, because after the repeated heartbreak at the start of the year (Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan, I still miss you), it seems everyone's feelin' the love. Ariana Grande and Pete Davison shocked the world by revealing they were officially dating before like, minutes later, announcing that they were engaged.
But before we could really come to terms with the young lovebirds getting hitched, another celeb couple made jaws drop all over the place when they announced their engagement mere moments after paparazzi swarmed them for pics and hissed rumours that they were dating. I'm talking of course about Justin Beiber and Hailey Baldwin. Well, you got us all good by revealing that you're not only dating but actually going to get married, guys. Three points to you!
The Sorry singer was all over headlines at the end of last year after it was reported that he was back with his on-again-off-again girlfriend Selena Gomez, who had at the time recently broken up with The Weeknd. However, any Jelena fans may have had their last hopes crushed in the past month or so, when it was revealed that Justin only had eyes for Hailey.
Their pics are adorable, but this one's got me feeling a lot of second-hand discomfort on behalf of the photographer in the hot tub...
Justin made the shock announcement a week or two ago to reveal that he was "soooo in love" with Hailey and that they got engaged on the 7th of July – a date which he got weirdly excited about in his Instagram post...
And because everything's moving so fast, it seems we already have details about the upcoming wedding. Hailey's aunt, Kim Basinger, was gushing about the engagement to tabloids when she revealed details of Hailey's bridal party.
"Oh, it’ll be fun," Kim told Us Weekly. "Alaia and Ireland, they’re in the wedding. So believe me, I just — it’s cool! I think it’s sweet. It’s a very sweet thing. Happiness … We’re living in some really dire times right now."
So who are Alaia and Ireland? Well, Alaia is Hailey's sister, who recently got married herself. She's also a model, and it appears that they're very close. Hailey was Alaia's maid-of-honour, so there's a high chance that the sisters will return the favour at Hailey's wedding.
Ireland is Hailey's cousin, who apparently also grew up close to the two sisters. Ireland is Alec Baldwin's daughter, and her mother is the aforementioned Kim, who shared the bridesmaid news.
Both Ireland and Alaia are reportedly "in the wedding", but nothing has been confirmed by the couple. The gushing Instagram posts from both of Hailey's relatives show that they're very excited about the upcoming nuptials.
As for who Justin's groomsmen will be? We're still yet to find out, but you can count on us that we're keeping our ears pricked for any further news.
