Justin Bieber has reportedly ended his longstanding friendship with Kanye West in support of his wife Hailey.
The news comes after 45-year-old rapper Ye posted a now-deleted rant on Instagram, calling the model “Drake’s girl” despite her four-year marriage to Justin.
He also accused her of getting a nose job in the bizarre post, allegedly forcing the Purpose singer, 28, to cut ties and assist his wife.

In the social media rant against Hailey, Ye shared an Entertainment Tonight article published in 2016 entitled, “Getting Serious? Drake wears Hailey Baldwin’s ‘H’ necklace after a night out.
Writing to Justin in the caption, he said ‘Get your girl before I get mad, you [supposed] to be my friend. You weren’t there when the Kardashians kidnapped my kids.”
Ye has repeatedly claimed that his estranged wife Kim Kardashian “kidnapped” their daughter Chicago when she threw the youngster a secret birthday party in January this year and refused to tell him where it was.
While Kim, who is co-parents of North, nine, Saint, six, Chicago, four and Psalm, three with the rapper, has denied this claim.

The comment section was flooded by confused fans, many of whom wrote that Justin Bieber, who battles Ramsay Hunt syndrome, “doesn’t deserve this.”
The attack was the result of Hailey’s defending of Vogue editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson.

‘They do’: The controversy started when the rapper donned a White Lives Matter T-shirt for his Paris Yeezy show
Ye came after the fashion writer on social media after she spoke negatively about his recent Yeezy runway show and labeled his decision to wear “White Lives Matter” T-shirts as “harmful.”
The rapper joked about Gabriella’s appearance in response, posting a photo of her and writing: “I KNOOOOOW ANNA [Wintour] HATE THESE BOOTS. This is not a fashion person. You talk about Ye. I’m talking about you. Ask Trevor Noah.”
But as she expressed her solidarity with Gabriella, Hailey took to her Instagram Stories to write, “My respect for you runs deep, my friend!
‘To know is to worship you and to work with you is an honor, the most kind. the most talented. the nicest. the chicest,” she concluded.
And she wasn’t the only one to do so, with Gigi Hadid — now embroiled in a vicious war of words with Ye — calling him a “bully” and a “joke” as he defended the Vogue editor.
“You wish you had a percentage of her intellect. You have no idea haha… If there really is a point to one of your s***es, she might be the only person who can save you. As if the “honour” of being invited to your show should stop anyone from expressing their opinion..? LOL. You’re a bully and a joke,” Gigi wrote.
Ye has since removed the scathing posts from his Instagram, which has 18 million followers.
