We guess it’s too late now to say sorry.

Selena Gomez has reportedly changed her phone number in a bid to keep ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber well away from her.

Once the 24-year-old distributed her new number, she told all her friends to “not to give it to him” according to Us Weekly.

The rash decision comes following an Instagram argument where Selena told Justin to stop posting loved-up photos of his new girlfriend Sofia Richie if he couldn’t handle the reaction from fans.

Selena wants ex Justin out of her life, pronto.

“If you can’t handle the hate then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol – it should be special between you two only,” she wrote in the comments section of one of the photos. “Don’t be mad at your fans. They love you.”

Justin didn’t take the criticism lightly, firing back: “It’s funny to see people that used me for attention and still try to point the finger this way,” he reportedly wrote in response.

The accusations were flying in the former couple’s Insta-fight.

“I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off,” she told People in a statement.

“Thank you to all my fans for your support. You know how special you are to me, but I need to face this head on to ensure I am doing everything possible to be my best.”
