Selena Gomez's recent confirmation of her relationship with music producer Benny Blanco marks a new chapter in the singer's personal life, leaving fans excited for what lies ahead. As Gomez moves forward, it's worth taking a nostalgic look back at her high-profile romance with pop sensation Justin Bieber.

Gomez and Bieber's romance was a rollercoaster that captured the attention of fans worldwide. The pop stars first crossed paths in 2009 when Bieber openly admitted that Gomez was his celebrity crush. The young duo began dating quietly, keeping their relationship under wraps for several months. Their public debut as a couple occurred at the Vanity Fair Oscars party in February 2011.

Over the course of their relationship, which spanned from 2009 to 2018, the couple faced various ups and downs, including multiple breakups. Despite the challenges, Bieber once described their early connection as a profound love, stating in 2015, "We were so in love. Nothing else mattered. It was a marriage kind of thing."

From Bieber serenading Gomez on New Year's Eve in 2009 to their final split in 2018 and Bieber's subsequent marriage to model Hailey Baldwin Bieber, the journey of 'Jelena' (as fans fondly called them) was a captivating saga in the realm of celebrity relationships.
