Sofia Richie and Jaden Smith are once again making headlines online after they were spotted together in Malibu, California on September 5, 2020. The duo have been friends for years and were rumored to have dated nearly eight years ago.

The 22-year-old model wore a bright pink bikini with beautiful floral print. As for the singer? He also rocked pink swimming trunks. An insider told E! about their outing, that, "They spent the afternoon playing on the beach together with friends. But Richie and Smith only had eyes for each other."

"They swam in the water together and wrapped their arms around each other. They held hands as they went in and out of the water and then they pulled each other in for a hug," he added. When the duo wasn't splashing around, the source notes they enjoyed "cocktails" and a "picnic." E! also revealed that "They were smiling at each other and very flirty the entire day. They seemed comfortable together." Later, the alleged couple was also spotted enjoying a double dinner date with their friend Moisés Arias and his girlfriend at the Nobu restaurant. Richie donned a black maxi dress that featured long sleeves and a stylish mock neck. Whereas Jaden wore a burgundy button-down shirt, a pair of black trousers and a gold chain necklace. However, none of the stars involved have commented on a rekindling of romance or the photos of their flirty beach day. 

Richie and Smith dated eight years ago in 2012 when both of them were around 14-years-old.  However, their romance petered out by early 2013. In 2012, the teenage couple was spotted several times together. After Richie shot to fame at the age of 14, when she started to model for Teen Vogue, she also featured in several campaigns of, Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors and Chanel. She is the youngest daughter of singer Lionel Richie.

Richie is nursing a broken heart after the end of serious relationship with Scott Disick. Last month, the couple decided to part ways "for good" after nearly three years of on and off togetherness. The couple had a sprawling age difference of 15 years. E! reports that their age difference played a part in their split, "Friends attributed their 15-year age difference becoming an issue," the insider explained. "He's in a very much different place in his life, really focused on a more quiet lifestyle, his kids and his investment businesses. And Sofia was really still trying to figure what she wants to do which drove them apart over time."

Richie had also dated Justin Bieber in 2016, the couple was photographed by the paparazzi on her 18th birthday in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. It was reported that the couple broke up in the very same year, as Bieber 'didn't want a relationship', back then. Bieber is now married to Hailey Baldwin. 

22-year-old Jaden, who is an actor, rapper and singer, first came into limelight when he acted with his father Will Smith in 'The Pursuit of Happyness'. He also starred in the remake films like, 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' and 'The Karate Kid'. In 2018, the rapper proclaimed that he is dating Tyler, the Creator. Smith took to Twitter to reiterate the news, though Tyler remained mostly silent throughout. Apart from that, he has also dated Kylie Jenner in 2013, for a few months.
