In light of the Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom incident, new details have surfaced revealing that Bieber tried to reach out to Bloom’s ex-wife, Miranda Kerr, several times following the 2012 Victoria Secret Fashion Show.

Bloom and Bieber have been in the spotlight recently due to a scuffle in Ibiza, however, it appears as though there may be more to the story than we had originally thought.

While Bieber recently taunted Bloom by posting then deleting a bikini photo of Kerr to his Instagram, it appears as though the “As Long As You Love Me” singer has had his eye on the Victoria’s Secret model for quite some time.

Following Bieber’s performance of “Beauty and a Beat” at the 2012 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, the “Baby” singer reportedly attempted to contact Kerr, who was Bloom’s wife at the time.

"They were all out partying until early morning and the group went back to the hotel," a source revealed to E! News in regards to the 2012 show. "Bieber and Kerr were acting flirty throughout the course of the evening."

However, it appears as though that wasn’t the end of Kerr and Bieber’s relationship.

"Since their already infamous hang out, Bieber has tried to reach out to Kerr several times," the source added. "But she didn't entertain his attempts at maintaining steady contact—they texted a bit here and there. He was very persistent."

Do you think the Bloom and Bieber feud stems back to Bloom’s ex-wife Miranda Kerr?
