'What I said was selfish and pointless': Selena Gomez 'apologizes' after Justin Bieber DELETES his Instagram amid row over new flame Sofia Richie

Selena Gomez has taken a step back on her criticism of Justin Bieber and his recent behavior, but apologies may be too late.

The Come & Get It singer posted a short but contrite message on Snapchat late Monday night after Justin DELETED his Instagram account amid the exes heated social media exchange.

Selena took a more gentle tone as she wrote, 'What I said was selfish and pointless,' the words appearing in white print against a black background.

Whether Justin takes the message to heart and reinstates his Instagram page is anyone's guess, and still up in the air after a weekend of sniping and back and forth accusations of cheating.


Selena, 24, clearly rubbed Justin, 22, the wrong way after she criticized his threats to quit Instagram over haters comments about his new flame, 17-year-old Sofia Richie.

He threatened to take his Instagram page private if fans didn't curb the nasty comments about the model and the daughter of Lionel Richie.
