Selena Gomez breaks silence on Justin Bieber and The Weeknd

SELENA Gomez has opened up about her rekindled romance with former flame Justin Bieber for the first time.

The 25-year-old has been spotted on a string of dates with the "Baby" singer after they split in 2014, reports The Sun.

In a new candid interview with Billboard magazine, the star said: "I'm 25. I'm not 18, or 19, or 20. I cherish people who have really impacted my life.

"So maybe before, it could have been forcing something that wasn't right.

"But that doesn't mean caring for someone ever goes away."

Gomez also claimed she had parted on amicable terms with ex-boyfriend The Weeknd, despite the singer recently deleting all traces of her from his social media.

She said: Something that I'm really proud of is that there's such a true friendship [between me and The Weeknd].

"I truly have never experienced anything like that in my life.

"We ended it as best friends, and it was genuinely about encouraging and caring [for each other], and that was pretty remarkable for me.

But last week, the 27-year-old had not only unfollowed his ex on Instagram, but had also wiped all traces of her from his profile by removing old snaps.

Earlier this month that Gomez and Bieber were rumoured to be back together after Bieber's pastor Carl Lentz encouraged them to reunite.

According to The Sun a source close to the star said: "They started texting when she was in hospital for her kidney transplant. Justin only found out through the press and he was hurt that she hadn't told him directly.

"He has been going to church every week and spends all his time with his pastor Carl Lentz — Carl has been encouraging 'reconciliation' between the two — to heal their friendship at least — and Justin basically has been asking her for her forgiveness this whole time.
