Justin Bieber & Ex Sofia Richie Are 'Focusing on Being Friends,' According to a Source

Justin Bieber stays hydrated while getting a breath of fresh air during a stroll on Friday morning (October 14) in London, England.

The 22-year-old “What Do You Mean?” singer spent the night before visiting several different restaurants around the city.

It was recently revealed that Justin and his ex Sofia Richie – who started fueling relationship rumors back in August in and broke up about a month later – are still in touch and remain “close friends.”

“Sofia and Justin are not back together, and they never were an official couple,” a source told E! News. “They just hooked up and were close friends. Sofia is still kind of annoyed at how Justin handled a few things, but they still communicate. They haven’t hooked up in a minute.”

“Sofia is chill with the whole situation and not ruling out future possibilities with Justin,” the source went on, “but as of this second nothing is happening. It was super hot and heavy, and because Justin doesn’t want a relationship right now, he wanted to cool things down. It wasn’t an intentional cool-off. It just sort of happened on its own.”

Another source added, “They are still friends, though, and will continue to see each other like they did before they were dating. They are taking a backseat, though, on the romance side of things and just focusing on being friends at this time.”
