All The People Selena Gomez & Zayn Malik Dated In The Past

Thanks to Selena Gomez and Zayn Malik, we’ve found a new IT couple to ship and take our minds off the Selena-Justin-Hailey drama. And believe me when I say that Selena and Zayn do share a hush-hush romantic past with each other! 

Instagram

Speaking of pasts, have y’all ever wondered about the dating history of these two legendary singers? Well, I definitely was curious so did a bit of digging around. Here’s a list of all the people Selena and Zayn dated before finding solace in each other.  

Selena’s Dating History

Nick Jonas

Instagram

Selena was first linked up with fellow singer and PC’s dearest hubby Nick Jonas after they worked together for the Disney Channel in 2008. Their relationship made headlines when Selena got featured in Jonas Brothers’ Burnin’ Up music video, a few months later. However, the two called it off after dating on and off for 2 years. Cut to 2015, Selena addressed her bond with Nick saying, “We were babies! That, to me, was like puppy love. It was very sweet. He’s lovely. I do have a love for him for sure.”

Taylor Lautner

TBH, who wouldn’t lose their heart to this Twilight hunk? Selena and Taylor’s short-lived romantic fling started right after she broke up with Nick in 2009. However, it was more of a ‘convenient situationship’ and the two were only spotted a couple of times together.

Justin Bieber

Selena had the most complicated relationship of her life with Justin Bieber. The two initially sparked dating rumours by sharing a kiss on a yacht in St. Lucia in 2011. But here come the twists. They split in November 2012, reconnected in 2013, and broke up again in early 2014. They continued playing this break-up-patch-up game until finally calling it off for good in 2015. The Baby singer even addressed all the drama with Selena and said, “When stuff would happen, I would lose my freakin’ mind, and she would lose her mind, and we would fight so hard because we were so invested in each other!”

Orlando Bloom

Instagram

During one of her breakup phases with Bieber in 2014, Selena sparked dating rumours with Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom, while he was in a relationship with Katy Perry. While neither of them spoke about it, their frequent outings were enough for their fans to ship the two.

Zedd

Instagram

While Selena made it ‘Gram official with the famous music producer DJ Zedd in early 2015, it didn’t last more than a few months. But the two ended it on a friendly note and Zedd even revealed that dating Selena changed his life, for good. 

Niall Horan

Instagram

Though Selena and the One Direction fame Niall always claimed to be nothing more than besties, their frequent dates and PDA with each other got the fans convinced that something was brewing between them.

Looks like the pop star has a past of dating people close to Gigi Hadid. She had a fling with Gigi’s close friend Samuel Krost around the same time she started dating Horan. NGL, this has got me confused in multiple ways.

Charlie Puth

Instagram

How can we forget the famous We Don’t Talk Anymore duo? While Gomez never confirmed her fling with Charlie Puth, the Light Switch singer revealed that her short-lived romance with Selena ‘really messed him up!’ What added fuel to the fire was when he said during an interview, I don’t kiss and tell, but the only way a song like that can come across as real is if there’s something else going on behind the scenes!”

The Weeknd

Instagram

From January to October 2017, Selena was in a serious relationship with the one and only The Weeknd. After taking a steamy hot vacay in Italy, the two made it Insta official within a month. They even made a remarkable red-carpet debut at Met Gala in May. However, their different schedules led to their split up.

Drew Taggart

Instagram

After taking a much-deserved break from the dating world, Selena made headlines in January 2023 for dating Chainsmokers DJ Drew Taggart. But unlike her past relationships, she decided to keep it low-key and casual, and neither of them addressed it publically.

Zayn Malik’s Dating History

Geneva Lane

Instagram

During his X Factor stint in 2010, Zayn Malik ended up hooking up with a fellow finalist Geneva Lane. But their short-lived fling was brushed off soon after the show got over on a rather ugly note. And Geneva even called him out on Twitter for being a ‘heartbreaker’!

Rebecca Ferguson

Instagram

Back in 2011, Zayn dated another of his fellow X Factor contestants Rebecca Ferguson despite having a six-year age gap. But their convenient fling ended on a friendly note and she even termed her bond with the singer as ‘life changing’.

Stephanie Davis

Instagram

Soon after calling it quits with Rebecca, Zayn had a casual fling with the Hollyoaks actress Stephanie Davis. However, they ended it after 5 months when rumours of Zayn cheating on her started doing the rounds. 

Perrie Edwards

Instagram

Zayn and Perrie’s love blossomed in 2011. After dating on and off for two years, the singers finally got engaged. But trouble brewed in their paradise and Zayn decided to dump Perrie soon after he announced his parting news with One Direction.

A couple of months after his break up with Perrie, Zayn’s dating life came into the limelight after he posted a mystery girl on his ‘Gram. Turned out she was a PR girl from Los Angeles and a casual fling of Zayn.

Neelam Gill

Zayn met the Burberry model at a recording studio in London in 2015, while he was still engaged to Perrie. Though the two never commented on their relationship, rumours were rife that they once hooked up.

Gigi Hadid

Instagram

Last, but not least, comes the supermodel and the mother of Zayn Malik’s kid, Gigi Hadid. The two started dating at Justin Bieber’s American Music Award afterparty. After having a break-up-patch-up phase for quite some time, the two rekindled their romance in 2020 and welcomed a baby girl the same year. But after an alleged family dispute involving Gigi’s mother, the couple called it quits in October 2021 but decided to co-parent their daughter.

Woah! Looks like Zayn and Selena’s dating lives have been more happening than the combined lives of me and my friends!
