Selena Gomez has been trying to get over her on-and-off troubled ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber for a few months, so what better than going on a date with One Direction band member Niall Horan?
The two apparently went out recently, while Selena was in London for the BRIT Awards or that was the excuse that was given.
Taylor Swift appears to be quite the matchmaker and thought that Selena Gomez and Niall Horan would make the perfect couple and he would be great to lift one of her BFFs spirits after her very public break-up from the Canadian teeny bopper.
The news reportedly didn’t make Justin very happy, as he supposedly “banned” Selena from attending his upcoming 20th birthday bash.
Selena was — by all accounts — sending a message to her ex by flying to London on Valentine’s Day to go out with Niall and even though both tried hard to keep the meeting a secret, by not saying a word in social media, a fan spotted them walking the streets of the English capital having a great time.
But apparently the “Come And Get It” singer and One Direction member are not ready to announce their relationship publicly yet.
As usual, “sources” already have all the scoop and they shared it with the British publication Heat , which we are taking with a grain of salt:
“It’s very early days, but they’ve been in constant contact since she went back to the States. Niall’s exactly the kind of guy she needs right now. He’s so sweet, a total gentleman and 100 per cent not a player like Justin turned out to be.”

Selena Gomez recently admitted to having spent two weeks in rehab for “emotional issues”, although some websites like TMZ reported the stay was due to alcohol and drug addiction.
Many hold the theory that Selena was having a hard time coming to the realization her relationship with the Biebs was over and could not handle it.
Supposedly, Niall asked common pal, Taylor Swift to set up a meeting with Selena:
“Niall’s always fancied Selena, and he’s made no secret of it. So when he went to Taylor’s gig at The O2 in London on February 2, he talked to her about setting them up. He’s just split from Barbara (Palvin) and Selena’s trying to get over Justin (Bieber) so it’s perfect timing.”
During their time together at the popular Nando’s, Selena Gomez and Niall Horan spent a lot of time talking about anything and everything, including her ex, the source revealed.
