Selena Gomez ‘dating’ Chainsmokers star after Nicola and Brooklyn ‘throuple’ quip

Selena Gomez is reportedly dating The Chainsmokers singer Drew Taggart.

Gomez, 30, and Taggart, 33, are said to have enjoyed several dates “going bowling and to the movies” and are keeping their new romance “very casual and low-key”, according to reports.

“They aren’t trying to hide their romance by sneaking around at members-only clubs,” a source told UsWeekly on Monday.

The insider added that “Selena can hardly keep her hands off him”, and said they are “having a lot of fun together”.

This report comes after Gomez joked she was in a “throuple” with Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, after holidaying with the couple in Mexico over the New Year.

Gomez, who has previously dated Justin Bieber, The Weeknd, and Orlando Bloom, was claimed to be “open to dating” by Entertainment Tonight in December.

A source told the media outlet: “Selena is feeling positive and optimistic. She is open to dating.”

A second insider told US Weekly in July: “She is more open to love, but she is also very much focused on herself and her work right now.

“She’s in a very healthy place. She is feeling fantastic and very mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy.”

The reported new romance follows Taggart’s split from EDM artist Eve Jobs, the daughter of the late Steve Jobs, last month, following a brief relationship.

It had been speculated that Gomez was dating Nicola Peltz’s brother Brad, 33, after the Only Murders in the Building star joined him and Nicola on their group trip to Mexico.

Gomez previously stated that her split from Bieber, 28, in 2018 was the “best thing” that ever happened to her.

“Everything was so public,” she said.

“I felt haunted by a past relationship that no one wanted to let go of. Then I just moved past it, and I wasn’t afraid any more.

“I feel like I had to go through the worst possible heartbreak ever… and, ultimately, it was the best thing that ever happened to me.

“It’s about more than a lost love. It’s me learning to choose myself, to choose life, but also hoping that people can find grace and peace in that, too.”

Bieber went on to marry model Hailey Baldwin in September 2018. Gomez was pictured for the first time publicly with Baldwin, 26, in October at an event, following her break-up with the singer.
