The pair went public with their relationship by attending music festival Coachella together in April, and she appeared in his music video for Into the Night by December of that year.
They broke up amicably in mid-November 2016 but remained close friends.
However, they sparked rumours they were back together after being spotted kissing in Cannes earlier this year and then they confirmed the news in September 2018.
How was Bella involved in the Fyre Festival fiasco?
Bella was one of a string of supermodels who were paid to promote the luxurious Fyre Festival to their fans but they were left red-faced when it proved to be a complete and utter disaster.
Ticket holders to the "luxury" weekend event – with tickets selling for thousands of pounds each – were horrified to arrive on the island of Great Exuma to discover there was no accommodation, no headline acts, no water – and a string of other far from glamorous realities.
Revellers who paid up to £10,000 per ticket were left "stranded with feral dogs and rat s***".
Following a severe backlash from fans for endorsing the shambolic event, Bella released a statement saying: “I just wanted to address Fyre Festival."
"Even though this was not my project what so ever, nor was I informed about the production or process of the festival in any shape or form, I do know that it is has always been out of great intent, and they truly wanted all of us to have the time of our lives."
“I initially trusted this would be an amazing & memorable experience for all of us, which is why I agreed to do one promotion.”
Bella added: "I feel so sorry and badly because this is something I couldn't stand by, although of course if I would have known about the outcome, you would have all known too."
She ended her note – uploaded to Twitter – by saying, "I hope everyone is safe and back with their families and loved ones.”
