“We have decided to end our romantic relationship […].” With these words, Shawn Mendes (24) and Camila Cabello (26) made their separation public in Instagram stories in November 2021. They wanted to remain “best friends”, but maybe they are currently more than that. At least that’s what several media reports suggest.
At the Coachella festival currently taking place in Indio, California, the singer and his colleague were seen very familiar with each other. The US radio station 102.7 KIIS FM shared a short clip on Twitter in which Mendes and Cabello seem to be talking animatedly.
Meanwhile, the British “Daily Mail” published a video that apparently shows the two kissing at the festival. An alleged eyewitness told celebrity magazine Us Weekly that they “looked like a couple”. The anonymous source also says that Mendes and Cabello should have kissed.
The former couple went public with their relationship in the summer of 2019. The separation took place at the end of 2021. “But the love for each other as people is greater than ever. We started the relationship as best friends and will continue to be,” they said in a joint statement at the time.
