Selena Gomez was spotted sharing a warm hug with Justin Theroux at the 16th annual CNN Heroes gala in New York City on Sunday.

The Come & Get It singer, 30, and The Leftovers star, 51, enjoyed a sweet reunion and chat at the event, as Justin’s adorable pit bull Kuma looked on and even got some back scratches from Selena.

The two looked to be engaged in a friendly conversation with Justin sitting at a table with his pup, as Selena stood by and showered Kuma with affection.

Justin famously adopted the female dog – whose name means ‘bear’ in Japanese – from Austin Pets Alive in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in 2018.

And little Kuma later joined Theroux onstage as he presented a CNN Heroes trophy to Peace of Mind Dog Rescue co-founder Carie Broecker for her ‘impactful work serving senior people and senior dogs.’

The Gomez and Theroux romance rumors happened in 2018 after both stars went through difficult breakups.

The two had apparently known each other through their manager for years but grew closer following the breakups.

They were spotted together in May of 2018 getting lunch with actor Paul Rudd, who co-starred with Gomez in the 2016 film The Fundamentals of Caring.
