âI knew from when I met [Selena] I would always have her back,â Swift, 35, told The Wall Street Journal in 2020. âIn my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I donât know if I can forgive someone who hurts her.â

Earlier this year, Gomez revealed a âsweetâ experience that she shared with Swift. Gomez recalled that she made the Tortured Poets Department singer cry after playing her then-unreleased song, âLose You to Love Meâ to Swift.
âWhen I played her âLose You to Love Me,â right before it came out [in 2019], she and her amazing mom [Andrea Swift] started to cry and then I started crying,â Gomez said in an interview with iHeartRadio in March. âYou know, itâs very sweet.â
In âLose You to Love Me,â Gomez sings about reclaiming herself after the end of a relationship that was no longer serving her, with many fans speculating it to be about her romance with Justin Bieber. Gomez and Bieber had an on-again, off-again relationship between 2009 and 2018, before he ultimately married Hailey Bieber and she moved on with Benny Blanco.
