In the TikTok she shouted to the players: “I’m single!” adding, “I’m just a little high maintenance, but I’ll love you so much.”

“This is so real,” said a third.

However, the rumours were only circulating for a few weeks.

Around the same time, an old red carpet interview resurfaced of the Disney alumni admitting she had a crush on Zayn.

Asked which member of the group she’d most likely kiss, she giggled: “Zayn.”

The dating reports in March came a decade after the stars were first linked, when Selena’s BFF Taylor Swift was dating Zayn’s 1D bandmate Harry Styles.

Taylor and Harry had a whirlwind relationship from late 2012 into 2013, inspiring a number of songs thought to be about the British boy band icon, including ‘Style’.
