“Famous In Love” star Bella Thorne recently reunited with her ex-boyfriend, Gregg Sulkin, amid rumors that she’s dating Scott Disick.

A source told People that Thorne and Sulkin have been spending time together since the Freeform actress returned to the United States after the Cannes Film Festival in France. “Bella and Gregg had a difficult relationship when they were together. She felt like she was too controlling and that’s part of why they broke up, but they’ve been talking for a little while and going back and forth,” the source said.

The insider claimed that Thorne realized that what she had with Sulkin was more real after she got played by Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-boyfriend.

Last year, Thorne and Sulkin released a joint statement to People in August announcing their decision to go their separate ways. The couple was together for over a year. “After much thought and soul-searching, we have made the difficult decision to end our relationship. We will always love each other and have a deep respect for one another, as we have each grown to be better people because of our time together. Our schedules made seeing each other difficult, and we decided that for now this would be best,” the statement read.

Meanwhile, Thorne and Disick jetted off to Cannes together, but their brief fling didn’t progress into anything serious because the latter allegedly hooked up with other women. “She feels like an idiot and like she got totally played. She thought she could be that cool party girl, but now she’s feeling super dumb and vulnerable. Her natural instinct is to run to her first love,” the source said.

Even though a series of photos of Thorne and Disick canoodling with each other circulated online, the actress, who plays the role of Paige in “Famous In Love,” denied that they are an item. On her Twitter account, one fan asked why she spent time with Disick in Cannes, and the actress joked by saying, “Legit nothing.”

In a follow-up post, Thorne also revealed that she didn’t enjoy herself in Cannes because the “fancy life” just wasn’t for her.
