Bella Hadid and ex-boyfriend The Weeknd reunite at MTV VMA rehearsals in NYC

Bella Hadid crossed paths with her ex The Weeknd on Friday, after they were reunited backstage during rehearsals for the 2020 MTV VMAs in New York City. 

The model, 23, left little to the imagination as she donned a sheer mesh top and black trousers, with sources exclusively telling DailyMail.com they’re on ‘good terms’ after seeing each other backstage. 

Bella and The Weeknd originally split up in August 2019, and blamed conflicting schedules on the reason why their on/off relationship had once again come to an end.

According to an inside, at the VMA rehearsals, supermodel Bella was spotted at the NYC shoot location the same day that Grammy-award winning artist The Weeknd – real name Abel Tesfaye – wrapped up rehearsals for his upcoming performance.

‘They played it cool and crossed paths with each other, same place, same time,’ an insider revealed, adding that the pair still appear to be ‘on good terms.’ 

Bella’s incredibly racy top featured a skinny halter strap and see-through cups, with  single horizontal strip of slightly denser mesh adding a tinge of modesty to the look.

Her hair was styled into a 90s inspired updo and a pair of large hoops were fastened to her ears.

She completed the awe-inspiring ensemble with a pair of patent strap heels and a fresh pedicure.

The Vogue covergirl looked particularly smiley as she exited a building and made her way to a nearby SUV.

The Weeknd is nominated for an impressive six gongs at the Sunday bash and is also scheduled to perform, while Bella has been confirmed as a presenter. 

It will certainly be interesting to see if Bella ends up presenting an award, as it might just result in an on-screen reunion for the former lovers.

The romance began between the pair after they first spotted at Coachella music festival together, back in April 2015. 

He later confirmed to Rolling Stone that he connected with Bella after he asked if she would appear on the artwork for his album Beauty Behind the Madness. 

The 2020 MTV VMAs were originally scheduled to be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, before the coronavirus pandemic forced organizers to re-think the entire event.

This year’s show marks the first time the bash has been held at various different locations, with performances taking place in and around New York City, without packed audiences to abide by social distancing guidelines.

MTV explained its plans for the show to ‘[span] all five boroughs’ of New York, to ‘pay homage to the strength, spirit and incredible resilience of NYC and its beloved residents.’

Nominations this year were dominated by pop performers Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, with nine nods each, while Billie Eilish and The Weeknd followed closely behind with six each.
