- On her birthday yesterday, Bella Hadid reportedly got a text from her ex, The Weeknd, and got into his car after a night out with friends, sources told E! News.
- The model's breakup with The Weeknd was first reported in early August, with sources citing 'distance' between the couple as the reason for the split.
- One of E!'s sources added that Hadid and the singer 'have been in touch', but don't seem to be getting back together.
Anyone who follows Bella Hadid on Instagram knows that, by the look of her Instagram Stories yesterday, she was showered with loving messages and posts from friends in honor of her 23rd birthday. However, one correspondence that didn't make the 'gram? The birthday texts from her ex, The Weeknd (AKA Abel Tesfaye).
Although Hadid and Tesfaye parted ways this summer, the singer still contacted his former flame on her big day. 'The Weeknd did reach out to Bella during the day to wish her a "Happy Birthday" and they have been in touch,' a source told E! News.
'There is no bad blood between the two and they are on good terms right now,' the insider added, but don't get too excited for a reunion. 'There isn't any chance of them getting back together right now but Bella never wants to have any anger or resentment towards anyone,' the source continued.
A second source hinted to E! that Hadid and Tesfaye might have even seen each other after the model went out with friends at Miss Lily's in NYC last night. She left 'by herself' and 'got into the The Weeknd's car', according to the insider. It's unclear if the singer was present at the festivities, and neither star has publicly responded to news of their possible rendezvous.
Hadid and Tesfaye's breakup was reported in early August. At the time, sources told E! that there was 'distance' between the former pair, and that they were 'arguing a lot'. Even if Bella and Abel aren't about to rekindle their romance, at least they seem to be on better terms.
