Who Has Selena Gomez Dated? These Are the Lucky Guys She’s Been Romantically Linked To
Selena Gomez has undoubtedly secured her spot as a Hollywood luminary. Between acting, making music, launching a beauty line, and producing onscreen projects, the 28-year-old star has broadened her impact since bursting onto the scene during her Disney Channel days. While she’s continued to develop her career, Selena has maintained a relatively private love life – not counting her more public relationships with Justin Bieber and The Weeknd, of course. Over the years, the “Rare” singer has been linked to the likes of Charlie Puth, Nick Jonas, Orlando Bloom, and Niall Horan. Some speculations seem to be valid, but others are clearly less substantiated. Either way, she certainly keeps us on our toes when it comes to her relationships. Keep reading to take a look back at Selena’s rumored and confirmed romances.
Nick Jonas
Selena and Nick briefly dated for a few months in 2008, sending Jonas Brothers fans into a frenzy. Selena opened up about their romance in 2015, saying it was “like puppy love, you know, it was very sweet.” In January 2018, the two hilariously reminisced on an awkward Central Park date from their time as a couple.
Taylor Lautner
Selena and Taylor met in Vancouver in 2009 while she was filming Ramona and Beezus and he was shooting Twilight: New Moon. Unfortunately, their young love didn’t last long. In the September 2009 issue of Seventeen, Selena confirmed their breakup, citing their lifestyles as the cause. “We would go out to lunch and dinner, but I knew he had paparazzi following him, and I had paparazzi following me,” she said. “People were getting a little crazy about us.” Although things didn’t work out between them, Selena noted: “He is so sweet. Taylor has made me so happy. I didn’t know I could be that happy.”
David Henrie
David played Selena’s TV brother on Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place, and the two remained good friends after the show ended in 2012. They reportedly went on a date back in 2014, but it appears nothing ever came of it. In 2017, Selena attended David’s wedding where he tied the knot with model Maria Cahill, with whom he shares a daughter named Pia and is expecting a second child. Selena and David reunited again in August of this year to promote their film, This Is the Year, which David directed and Selena produced.
Justin Bieber
Selena and Justin had a five-year roller-coaster romance filled with ups and downs, which seemed to have definitively ended in 2015. Things got rocky in 2017 when Selena started dating The Weeknd, but she and Justin got back together at the end of that year, only to split again in March 2018. Three months after their official breakup, Justin rekindled his relationship with his now-wife, Hailey Baldwin.
In 2019, after Justin and Hailey’s second wedding in South Carolina, Selena unveiled her song “Lose You to Love You,” which seemed like a farewell to Justin. Chatter about their relationship revved up again in early September when Justin lip-synced Selena’s name in Drake’s music video for “Popstar,” but neither artists have commented on it.
