Justin Bieber quits Instagram

Justin Bieber is done with Instagram.

The “Love Yourself” singer deleted his account after sparring with ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez.

After Bieber, 23, shared photos with new gal pal Sofia Richie, 17, he threatened to quit the photo-sharing service after receiving negative feedback on the images from his fans.

“I’m gonna make my Instagram private if you guys can’t stop the hate,” Bieber wrote. “This is getting out of hand, if you guys are really fans you wouldn’t be so mean to people that I like.”

It didn’t take long for Gomez, 24, to add her two cents.

“If you can’t handle the hate then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol — it should be special between you two only. Don’t be mad at your fans. They love you,” she posted.

Gomez’s comments didn’t slip past Bieber, who then accused her of using his celebrity status for her own gain.

“It’s funny to see people that used me for attention and still try to point the finger this way,” he commented. “I’m not one for anyone receiving hate. Hope u all can be kind to my friends and each other. And yes I love my beliebers.”

As the war of words escalated between the not-so-friendly exes, Gomez also alleged that Bieber had cheated during their lengthy on-and-off-again romance.

“Funny how the ones that cheated multiple times, are pointing the finger at the ones that were forgiving and supportive, no wonder fans are mad. Sad. All love,” she wrote.

Bieber then turned the tables on Gomez, claiming she had strayed from him with fellow pop star Zayn Malik.

“I cheated … Oh I forgot about you and Zayn,” he posted.

Though Bieber’s other ex, Hailey Baldwin, shared a cryptic note of her own on Instagram, as sources told People, the 19-year-old beauty was miffed at Bieber’s budding relationship with Richie.

“Justin unfollowed Hailey on social media, and now all their friends are talking s–t on Sofia and him and how messed up it is,” the insider said.

Bieber was linked to Baldwin earlier this year, but the pair were never officially boyfriend and girlfriend. As for his new squeeze, Richie, her Instagram remains public though all of her comments have been purged.
