Selena Gomez has insisted she is still "best friends" with her ex-boyfriend The Weeknd.
The 25-year-old singer recently called time on her romance with the fellow musician - whose real name is Abel Tesfaye - but has revealed there's no love lost between the pair as they still maintain a "true friendship" and "genuinely care" for one another
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.”
The 'Fetish' hitmaker has since rekindled her relationship with former flame Justin Bieber - whom she had an on/off relationship with from 2010 to 2015 - and admits she chose to get back in touch with the 23-year-old star because she still “cherishes” him.
When asked by Billboard magazine - who have named her Woman of the Year for 2017 - about her relationship with the 'Love Yourself' singer, she 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.
