When The Weeknd (whose real name is Abel Tesfaye) and Selena Gomez were first photographed making out on January 10—exactly two months after he and Bella Hadid officially broke up, Hadid unfollowed Gomez on Instagram. But Tesfaye remained on her following list for months, even after he and Gomez both unfollowed her on March 23.
Hadid has now quietly removed him though, as of this morning.
Evidence of their relationship remains on her feed, however. There’s been no Taylor Swift/Calvin Harris-style purge:
Bella Hadid told Teen Vogue in Februarythat she was dedicated to staying friends with Tesfaye. “I’ll always respect him, and I’ll always love him,” she said. “Sometimes you want to be sad about it or handle it differently, but at the end of the day, you never want to burn a bridge that you’ve fought so hard to build.”
But everyone has their limits, and it appears between Tesfaye’s many Instagram story posts of his new girlfriend and his possible jab to Hadid in his and Future’s song “Comin’ Out Strong” (lyrics: “I know she wanna be poppin’ all over the ‘Gram [a possible call out to Bella’s Instagram popularity]/When the cameras come out, wanna hold my hand/Must be out of your mind, do you know who I am?/Man you’re killin’ my vibe, do you know who I am?”), Hadid may have reached hers.
