Life imitates art today, as Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber don't talk anymore like they ussssed to do, People is reporting. In the surest sign the on-off couple is off forever (for now!) a source told the outlet that 'Justin has no contact with Selena now. He seems fine with it.' He and Hailey Baldwin, by the way, the girl he and Gomez allegedly once went to couple's therapy over, are cuddly, sure, but aren't dating yet. 'He is single and not dating anyone seriously,' the source said. 'He has known Hailey for years—she is very involved in Justin’s church. He likes hanging out with her. She is a wonderful person. They have fun together, but they are not in a relationship. They are two single people that enjoy each other’s company.'
E! reported at the beginning of last month that Gomez had 'completely moved on' from the Biebs and is 'not interested in getting back together with him anytime soon,' per multiple sources.
'She respects him as a person but has decided she is much happier doing her own thing,' one source said. 'Selena rarely even talks about Justin anymore, and is fully open to dating. You can never say never with her and Justin, but at the moment they aren't in contact and she's feeling very strong and content.'
In mid-April, a source told Entertainment Tonight that 'he loves her so much, but they both know a serious relationship right now is just too much to take on.' Back then, 'they were very friendly and civil. They’re still very close. It’s not awkward between them at all.'
