Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez timeline
Because the relationship was on and off, ENTANGLED presents the major publicly documented periods rather than pretending every private reconciliation date is known exactly.
They meet and become friends
Gomez and Bieber met before they were publicly documented as a couple. Early appearances and speculation are background context, not counted as a confirmed romantic period.
Public appearance as a couple
They attended the Vanity Fair Oscars party together, widely treated as their public couple debut.
First major public breakup
The couple separated after their first widely documented relationship period.
On-and-off reunions
They were seen together and publicly linked multiple times. Reporting from this period describes an intermittent relationship rather than one uninterrupted span.
Final public reunion
Gomez and Bieber reunited publicly in late 2017 after Gomez’s relationship with The Weeknd ended.
Relationship ends
The final reunion ended in 2018. Subsequent reporting and both people’s later marriages confirm that this relationship is historical, not current.
