‘He planned it and paid for everything,’ a source told UsWeekly after the supermodel and a group of pals gathered at Socialista lounge in New York for the bash.

‘They both hang in the same Toronto crew and now they’re having to pick sides,’ an insider claimed. 

‘The Weeknd performed and people on Drake’s side were like, ‘I can’t show up to that . . . Got to have allegiance. They aren’t getting along right now . . . The groups are beefing because [Drake] broke the bro code. They 100 percent hooked up.’ 

The Weeknd, who is now dating Bella’s former friend Selena Gomez, was born in Toronto in 1990 and raised in Scarborough, Ontario.

Drake, born Aubrey Drake Graham, was also born in Toronto but in 1986; he was raised in the Western end of Toronto and later in Forest Hill.

Bella and the Weeknd – whose real name is Abel Tesfaye – first started dating in May 2015 but their romance was short lived as they split that December.

However, there was clearly still chemistry there as they decided to give their romance another go before calling it quits for good in November last year.

Just a few weeks later, Bella walked in the 2016 Victoria Secret Fashion Show in Paris York while her ex performed onstage and there appeared to be no animosity.

But the Reminder hitmaker was then spotted locking lips with Selena at the beginning of 2017 and the pair have been inseparable ever since – leading to Bella unfollowing both her ex-partner and her former friend on every social networking site.
