The long-running feud between Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber was back to making headlines just months after the two hugged it out at an event. Fans dug up videos alleging that Hailey was bullying Selena online, which resulted in the latter taking a break from social media. The beef between the two celebrities dates back to 2018 when Hailey got engaged to Justin Bieber just months after he ended his relationship with Gomez, whom he dated on and off for eight years. The toxicity of the love triangle, however, didn't end with JB and Hailey getting married. Fans of the stars often resort to fan wars and viciously trolling the other.

Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone were B-town's power couple for years until Katrina Kaif came into the picture.

If you've heard Olivia Rodrigo's global smash hit single 'Driver's License', it would interest you to know that it was about her own alleged love triangle.

At the time of the song's release, Joshua was linked to Sabrina Carpenter, who matched the girl in Rodrigo's lyrics.
