Back in August, we reported that Brooklyn Beckham and Chloe Moretz were dating.
Insiders claimed that despite their youth, the couple was moving fast and seemed intent on staying together for the foreseeable future.
Just a few weeks later, however, they quietly called it quits.
That sort of abrupt breakup is usually an indication that something – or someone – unexpectedly tore the couple apart.
Now, the folks at OK! magazine are claiming that there was no infidelity involved, but a third party was indirectly responsible for the breakup:
Yes, sources are claiming that Brooklyn has a thing for Selena Gomez, and he dumped Chloe under the mistaken belief that Selena might have feelings for him as well.
“He was smitten with Selena even while he was dating Chloe, which was one of the reasons they broke up,” says one insider.
“[Selena] says Brooklyn’s sweet and all, but he’s just too young for her. In a few years time that could change, but for now she only sees him as a friend – and it’s breaking his heart.”
So it seems Brooklyn made a rookie mistake and went all-in for a girl who just doesn’t like him in that way.
Clearly, the kid has big-time playa aspirations, but he’s got a lot to learn.
