In 2009, Selena Gomez had tweeted, "Discussing love with two 9-year-olds. That’s what love is supposed to be. Truly amazing, I’m never leaving Canada.” To this, the Lover hitmaker had replied, “Real love still happens sometimes. It’s not just something we make up when we’re nine. I have to believe that. You do too.” Their cheeky conversation began doing the rounds as soon as Taylor and Travis announced their engagement.
