Pop singer Bebe Rexha was seen moving on and kissing her new boyfriend, architectural engineer Simos Liakos, after a messy break-up.

Rexha, 34, is on holiday in Sardinia, and she packed on the PDA with her new beau, going in for a smooch while they enjoyed the ocean. The songwriter looked gorgeous in a black one-piece, and Liakos kept it casual in some board shorts.

The relationship comes after Rexha’s last break-up, which became public when she posted alleged text messages between her and someone criticising her weight gain.

Rexha, who has been open about her weight gain because she has the common hormonal disorder polycystic ovarian syndrome, posted screenshots of a text message exchange on her Instagram account.

Then popular X account Pop Crave reposted them after she deleted it.

In the message, the sender writes that he never said he did love the singer but that he was always going to be “honest” with her.

“Your face was changing, so I told you it was … that was the conversation we were having, and you asked,” it reads.

“Would you rather I lied to you? You gained 35 pounds, obviously, you gained weight and your face changed? Should I just pretend it didn’t happen and that it’s OK? Come on, I gained three pounds, and you called me chubbs and fat. That doesn’t mean you don’t love me.”

The text concludes with the sender suggesting that Rexha attend therapy or a retreat but adds that he still “loves” her.

She never said who the messages were, but she broke up with producer Keynan Safyari, 38, shortly afterwards.

At her concert in London, she confirmed she was single again.

“I just went through a break-up, so I might get a little emotional, and you need to help me,” she told the crowd before performing her emotional ballad, ‘Atmosphere’.

The song contains emotional lyrics, such as, “I can’t blame myself for getting lost inside the promise of you, and I can’t blame you for leaving.”

Rexha uploaded that text exchange just after she’d spoken out against the scrutiny surrounding her recent weight gain.

“I know I got fat. I’m just so sick of people talking about it. Next!!!!” she tweeted in June.

She spoke about it further when she appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Talk Show and attributed her weight gain to being diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome, a common hormone imbalance.

She revealed that getting online hate wasn’t easy just because her body had changed and that TikTok was filled with it.

“I was a lot thinner, and I did gain some weight — that comes with the territory. I’m not mad about it because it is true, but when you see things like that, it does mess with you.”
