The supermodel and singer (whose real name is Abel Tesfaye) have been nothing but the picture of pure love ever since getting back together in 2018.
A source has explained that “they are in different places right now, physically and mentally. Abel is working on his new album and the distance has been an issue for them. Both Bella and Abel have been back and forth from LA and NYC, but at opposite times.
“They have been arguing a lot recently, and haven’t spent quality time together in months,” the source continued. “They hope to get back together at one point but for now are focusing on themselves and their projects.”
The insider continued, “Bella is prepping for her fashion week commitments and Abel is working on his music and his upcoming acting debut.”
Ouch.
The Weeknd and Bella first started dating all the way back in 2015. “They have many things in common and really enjoyed each other’s company,” a source told E! News at the time. “She loves his music as well. They are hanging out for sure now.”
Their relationship seemed well and dandy all the way until November 2016, when they officially broke up. This birthed that infamous Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show interaction between the two, as Bella walked the show while he performed.

Shortly after, The Weeknd sparked up a relationship with former Disney star Selena Gomez, when they were spotted kissing in January 2017.
Their relationship lasted a short 10 months, breaking up in October 2017.

In May 2018, Bella Hadid and her ex-boyfriend Abel Tesfaye were once again spotted packing on the PDA while attending the Mangum VIP Party in Cannes. This was their official “back on” statement.
Since then, the pair have been inseparable, posting loved-up photos on social media and seeming like they were headed towards an engagement. They had even moved in together.
It’s a sad, sad day for Bella and The Weeknd fans!
