GATHER ROUND, MATES, because the tea continues to spill.
So our mates The Weeknd and Selena Gomez are dating. Probably. It certainly looks like they’re dating, what with being caught canoodling behind the dumpsters and following each other on Instagram.
A more cynical person – like Selena’s ex Justin Bieber, say, or any of you untrusting fucks – might say this whole ‘relationship’ was a gambit to raise the profile of one person and/or the other. And to that we say: maybe? But also why did The Weeknd’s ex Bella Hadid unfollow Selena on IG, hmmmm? Obviously this has drama all over it, whether real or imaginary.
So yeah. These two are almost definitely doing smooches – and The Weeknd just made it as close to Instagram official as we’ve seen yet.
He uploaded a pic of Selena (or at least, someone who’s back of head looks very much like Selena) to his Instagram story, showing her gazing up at Botticelli‘s masterpiece, ‘The Birth of Venus‘.
The two have been spotted being all cute and couple-y around the streets of Florence, Italy (where this painting hangs) so the chances of that *not* being Selena are zilch.

True love ain’t dead; it’s just temporarily swapped postcodes.
