Canadian singer and songwriter Shawn Mendes and Cuban singer Camila’s relationship sparked a lot of hope among the fans as a celebrity couple. However, their recent break up took over the internet while getting mixed reactions from the fans and the supporters. The couple took their friendship to a whole new level in the Summer of 2019 and dated each other for over two and a half years. However, in 2021 they officially announced their split which was quite shocking news for many of their fans and followers.
It all started with their hit single ‘Senorita’ where Shawn and Camila became a part of a controversy that this celebrity couple is promoting a ‘fake’ romance for the purpose of publicity. However, all the rumors have been reported shut down by the united effort of this celebrity couple.
Shawn and Camila first collaborated on the track ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer‘ which was 6 years ago and after two and half years of relationship, they have finally broken up and released heart-break songs like ‘It’ll Be Okay’ and ‘Bam Bam’ which shows how much affected they are.
Camila opens up about the split
In a recent interview with Zane Lowe for the upcoming album ‘Familia’, Camila Cabello opened up about the relationship with Shawn and the reason behind the split. She explained that their priorities have changed with time as they are trying to be ‘healthy adults’. The singer said, “How can I talk about the icky things that I haven’t talked about with anybody and then get it to a place where these people because they’re like, ‘Oh yeah, I totally relate,’ can validate my own experience?”
She further added, “And same thing with those years that we were together. My focus was just, how can I live a happy life and be in a healthy, happy relationship? I was doing therapy a lot. My focus really has shifted a lot.” She even said, “Even now, while I’m in promo mode — honestly, if I’m not having fun, what’s the f****** point? I think as I get older, the priorities shift. And I feel like that was that way for both of us.”
Talking about Shawn and her career, the singer said, “Because we both started so young too, we’re really learning how to be healthy adults. And that sometimes means not having your number one focus be your career. And that’s okay.”
The Break-up songs in 2022
In January this year, Shawn Mendes released a song that seemed like reflecting his aching heart over the split. The song is called ‘It’ll Be Okay’ and was released after two months after their break up. The lyrics go like this, “I start to imagine a world where we don’t collide / It’s making me sick, but we’ll heal and the sun will rise”.
Quite similarly, the effect of the split is noticeable in Camila’s musical projects as well. She has been working with Ed Sheeran for the latest track ‘Bam Bam’ which is an upbeat tempo pop track but its lyrical approach is quite emotive and intriguing as the singer sings, “We were kids at the start / I guess we’re grown-ups now, mmm / Couldn’t ever imagine even havin’ doubts / But not everything works out, no.”
Announcement of the split
Shawn and Camila mutually announced their spit through an Instagram post on November 17, 2021. They said that they’ve decided to stay as best friends and willing to support each other for the rest of their lives.
The couple wrote, “Hey guys, we’ve decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever. We started our relationship as best friends, we all so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward.”
Supporting each other
In October, Camila revealed in an interview that Shawn helps her much to deal with her anxiety struggles. She said that she has an unhealthy pattern of eating when she is under stress or anxiety and Shawn helps her a lot not to do that. The singer confessed that “It’s really good for me to be able to talk about my patterns with someone.”
Camila has also made a debut in the feature film ‘Cindrella’, an Amazon Prime Adaptation. She attended the Premiere in Miami with then-boyfriend Shawn and the two of them put up a cute display on the red carpet, melting the hearts of the fans.
Shawn seemed quite happy with Camila’s accomplishments and wrote on Instagram, “Congratulations my love, I’m so proud of you. I’ve never seen anybody work as hard as you did to show up every day and be truly professional, kind, and authentic. I admire you so much. Such a beautiful movie with a beautiful message.”
Bottom line
Shawn and Camila, better known as ‘Shamila’ are not together now but it is still a tricky question to answer whether they are still in love with each other or not. This musically talented couple has won millions of hearts with their music and wholesome presence in love. They have split but the memories and the compatibility between them inspire a lot of fans.
