Celebrity relationships and friendships are a rare breed. These famous faces have their lives played out in front of the masses, whether it’s the good, the bad, or the straight-up shady. In Elite Daily’s new series, It’s Complicated, we’re highlighting the biggest celebrity “feuds” that took over Hollywood and dominated our Sunday brunches for weeks on end. We’ll take a deep dive into the lives and social media feeds of our favorite stars and dissect what happened in front of the camera, what went down behind the scenes, and everything you might have missed in between.

Fans can usually tell if celebrity couple's relationship is on the rocks through their social media interactions. Eagle-eyed users spot something is up through deleted photos, a quick search of their followers, or even a seemingly harmless subtweet. When things like that happen, reports of a breakup usually aren't far behind. Bella Hadid and The Weeknd's social media interactions certainly paint a clear picture; the two have documented their greatest (and not-so-great) moments together over the course of their five-year on-and-off relationship.

Hadid and The Weeknd hadn't yet publicly confirmed their relationship, but that didn't stop the model's mom, Yolanda, from sharing a sweet Instagram pic with them at Hadid's birthday dinner. Yolanda referred to Hadid as "our girl" in the caption.

It came as no surprise when The Weeknd confirmed their relationship to Rolling Stone less than two weeks later.

December 2015: So Romantic

The day after The Weeknd dropped his "In the Night" music video, which starred Hadid, she posted a gorgeous photo of herself lying in a bathtub full of roses and kissing The Weeknd's hand. The pic was taken while filming the video, making it clear there was something happening between them before they even made things publicly official.

February 2016: Man Of The Night

The 58th Annual Grammy Awards were a big night for The Weeknd. Not only did he take home two Grammys, but he also walked the carpet arm-in-arm with Hadid for the first time.

Hadid commemorated the night on Instagram writing, "This is YOUR day baby! I'm so proud of you ❤️I feel so lucky to be by your side."
