The Complete Timeline of Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes' Journey from Lovers to Amicable Exes

It may surprise you to learn that Camila Cabello and her former beau, Shawn Mendes, didn't start dating immediately after meeting in 2014. In fact, the couple, who announced their split in November 2021, didn't confirm their romantic relationship until September 2019!

However, Camila and Shawn always had a special connection. Back in July 2014, the former lovebirds were touring with Austin Mahone. "I remember thinking we met on the Austin Mahone tour, and I remember I wanted to hang out with you, but you were always on the tour bus, just learning guitar," recalled the former Fifth Harmony member in a June 2019 interview with V Magazine.

"Yeah, that was me. I didn't talk to anybody," Shawn chimed in. "You were the only person that talked to me. Like, you were the only one of everybody on that tour who would say words to me. Actually, I think if we go into our DMs or something, there's a photo from the day we met, I think," he continued. "And I thought you were out of your mind. I'd be in my bus where no one could see me. I'd be looking through the window and I'd see you, like, flying around on a scooter and jumping and doing cartwheels. I'd be like, 'She's insane.' Close the window and go to sleep."

Since then, the couple affectionately known as "Shamila" by fans, have come a long way in their relationship before the split. However, things between the A-list duo weren't always perfect. During a June 2021 interview with the "Man Enough" podcast, Shawn spoke openly about a fight he and Camila had and what it taught him about himself.

"I raised my voice at her, and she was like, 'I don't like it when you raise your voice. Why did you raise your voice?' And I got so defensive," recounted the "Stitches" singer. "I was like, 'I wasn't raising my voice at you!' And I did raise my voice at her. And I felt her shrink and I felt me grow, and I was like, 'Oh God, this is the worst.' I'm so terrified of being evil. I'm so scared to be bad."

Camila was understanding in the end. "I made it about my evil and my fear, and she comforted me," Shawn assured. "And then it took me like 20 minutes of us separately reading our books to be able to come back to her and be like, 'God, that was a whole thing, and I'm really sorry.'"

However, the former flames surprised fans when they seemingly reunited in Indio, California, for Coachella 2023. In a video shared by 102.7 KIIS FM's Twitter account, the pair were seen holding drinks while engaging in a lively conversation.

In another photo circulating on social media from the event, Camila and Shawn were seemingly spotted going in for a kiss.
