Los Angeles: Singer Justin Bieber and Sofia Richie have parted ways after six weeks together.

"They're broken up for now," a source told People magazine.

Their short relationship had its fair share of drama. In mid-August, the "Sorry" singer, 22, berated his fans for making negative comments towards his new girlfriend, and his ex Selena Gomez also waded into the mix.

The on-and-off exes got into a verbal spat when Gomez gave Bieber some advice on a photo he posted of himself and Richie.

"If you can't handle the hate, then stop posting pictures of your girlfriend lol- It should be special between you two only," Gomez wrote.

In a recent interview, Richie, 18, opened up about the bond she shares with Bieber.

"We have a special relationship. Justin is very easy to talk to, and that's hard to find with people in Los Angeles," she said.
