Everyone knows that the former Disney darlings Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato are best friends but it is the "Slow Down" singer who is especially happy that the two have such a close relationship.

In a new interview for the March 2014 issue for Seventeen Magazine Justin Bieber's on again, off again girlfriend revealed that she and her friend are tighter than ever after enduring a rough patch just a few years ago.

According to E! News, the childhood pals drifted apart around 2010 which was the same year that Lovato, 21, checked into rehab.

Gomez, 21, decided to share some details about her damaged friendship. She also revealed that it was the "Neon Lights" singer's willingness to share her darkest moments with the public that inspired her to reach out to her and mend their friendship.

She explained, "Demi's very, very strong. She's the only person that I would tell the deepest, darkest secrets to. The only person."

Selena Gomez continued, "I've known her since we were 7, and we did fall apart for a while." Demi Lovato entered a treatment facility for an eating disorder and self-harm issues.

The "Come and Get It" singer admitted, "She was going through things and I was so young and it was confusing. I processed it saying, 'OK, I don't understand what she's going through so I'm just going to do this.' I don't think it was fair, and I'm so happy that I have her back in my life now."

The former "Wizards of Waverly Place" star had nothing but kind words to say about her best friend. She gushed, "I feel like we're all given what we can handle, and clearly someone thought she could handle so much-and she could, and she did. And she's incredible for that.

"I couldn't imagine going through some of the things that she went through, and the fact that she is who she is today is insane-she's one of my inspirations."
