The Weeknd moves on with Justin Bieber’s ex

The Weeknd has moved on from Selena Gomez and is now dating Yovanna Ventura, a former girlfriend of Justin Bieber.


The Weeknd is dating Justin Bieber’s ex-girlfriend.

The ‘Can’t Feel My Face’ singer has seemingly moved on from Selena Gomez – who is believed to have reconciled with the ‘Never Say Never’ hitmaker – as he was seen getting cosy with Yovanna Ventura at French Montana’s birthday party at a Beverly Hills mansion on Thursday (09.11.17).

A source said: “The Weeknd was there hand in hand with Yovanna Ventura all night.

“They arrived together. They were holding hands. He was there for a solid two hours with her and everywhere they went they held hands.”

Another insider told Us Weekly magazine: “He was parading her around. He was trying to make it obvious that he was with someone. They were pretty affectionate and were together the entire night.”

And the 27-year-old singer – whose real name is Abel Tesfaye – was seen again with the brunette beauty the following evening as they were pictured in the back of a car leaving Hyde nightclub.

Yovanna, 21, previously dated Justin in 2015, around a year after his on/off romance with Selena, 25, ended.

The ‘Wolves’ singer split from The Weeknd in October after 10 months of dating and has grown increasingly close to her former flame in recent weeks.

It was previously claimed The Weeknd and Selena split because he felt their romance was fizzling out.

The high-profile duo had rarely seen each other over recent months and because they both have jam-packed working schedules, they had hardly even been speaking on the phone, so the ‘Party Monster’ hitmaker decided to call it a day because he didn’t see them having a long-term future together.
