Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello had a hot relationship in 2019 and shared many sweet moments before splitting.
Mendes and Cabello met five years ago while opening for Austin Mahone. Mendes had just won a Vine contest and Cabello was still in Fifth Harmony. Since their first meeting, the two have remained close and supportive.
The music stars have teased each other over the years, with one of the earliest occurrences occurring in 2015. In November of that year, Mendes admitted to trying to “make a move” on Cabello after the host of the show inquired about their relationship. The “Treat You Better” singer said his longtime pal always “swerves” him.
“There’s no way you haven’t made out,” James Corden said, implying that he didn’t “believe” them. “He friend-zones me! ‘Kid!’”
In 2017, Mendes and Cabello collaborated on “I Know What You Did Last Summer”. The following year, Mendes told Beats 1 that Cabello was his “favourite person in the world,” prompting Cabello to express her admiration.
In June 2019, the duo released the sultry single “Seorita” to officially heat things up. Soon after the song’s release, Cabello and Hussey began seeing each other everywhere before confirming their romance the following month.
Despite their success as pop stars, the duo prefers to keep their romance a secret.
“I dunno; people can say whatever,” she told Elle in October 2019. “They can speculate, but we will live our lives, enjoy them, and fall in love like nobody is watching. That’s the life I want. I never want people to feel involved. Like I said, I want it both. That’s why I’m so quiet about it: to protect it.”
