They're currently one of the most talked about couples in Hollywood , due to what seems like one of the quickest relationship turnarounds in history.
Just days after making their Instagram debut with a Harry Potter-themed post, Davidson got his then-girlfriend's initials inked on his hand , and her "Dangerous Woman" bunny ears right behind his ear. He also has her last name, Grande, inked across his rib-cage . Plus the then-couple have a few matching tattoos as well.
In October 2018, Davidson was spotted with a new tattoo that covered up the bunny ears — a giant heart, foreshadowing their break-up. Now, both Davidson and Grande are in the process of covering up their tattoos related to each other.

While the two seem to be broken up for now, it's impossible to say they're done for good — though Bieber did just announce his engagement to Hailey Baldwin , so we really might be saying goodbye to "Jelena" forever.
