In the new Apple documentary Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, Gomez says, “Everything was so public. I feel like I had to go through the worst possible heartbreak ever and then just forgetting everything at the drop of a hat, it was really confusing.” 

“But I just think that needed to happen, and ultimately it was the best thing that ever happened to me,” she added. 

The singer opened up and discussed her heartbreak and fallout from her relationship with Justin Bieber. Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber were in a relationship from December 2010 to March 2018. In 2018, the two parted ways amicably. A few months later, Bieber married model Hailey Baldwin.

Apart from discussing her breakup, the singer also spoke about her smash hit song Lose You to Love Me in her documentary. Gomez said she and lyricists Julia Michaels and Justin Tranter wrote the song in just 45 minutes in an effort to express her feelings. 

She said, “It’s about more than a lost love. It’s me learning to choose myself and to choose life, but I also hope that other people can find grace and peace in that too. The song is about knowing that you completely lost every part of who you are just to rediscover yourself again.”

Recently Selena Gomez was the talk of tinsel town. On October 15, Selena Gomez publicly posed with her ex-boyfriend’s wife Hailey Bieber in Los Angeles while attending the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures’ second annual gala. Their picture soon became viral online and took the internet by storm.
