When did Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez first start dating?
Selena Gomez was Justin Bieber’s first official showbiz girlfriend.
The two sparked dating rumors in 2010 when they were still just teenagers, but it wasn’t until 2011 that they confirmed their romantic relationship.
Their young love, however, was anything but perfect as it was often plagued by rumors of Bieber’s infidelity.
The pair officially split in 2014 but had an on-and-off relationship until 2018.
Bieber has since revealed that the songs What Do You Mean?, Sorry and Mark My Words from his 2016 Purpose album were about Gomez.

Who else have they dated?
Bieber certainly kept himself busy with a host of beauties during his time away from Gomez.
His most famous romances were with Sophia Richie and his longtime friend, Hailey Baldwin.
Bieber, however, ended up proposing to Baldwin in July 2018 and the pair got married the following September.
His wife and Gomez have a long history of beef between them.
Gomez, on the other hand, has been a lot more selective about her romances since dating the heartthrob.
In 2015, she was linked to DJ Zedd and in 2017 she dated The Weeknd, who she split up with in October of that year.
The Rare Beauty founder has also been linked to the likes of Charlie Puth, Nick Jonas, Orlando Bloom, Niall Horan, and Taylor Lautner.
The 30-year-old has been dating The Chainsmoker’s Drew Taggart since January 2023.
