Shawn Mendes Talks About His Relationship With Camila Cabello And Their “Brutal” Split

Buy Me A Coffee

So, our boy Shawn Mendes (yes, the Shawn Mendes, the one whose voice is smoother than a freshly buttered toast) decided to spill some piping hot tea about his breakup with Camila Cabello. But not just any olโ€™ breakup โ€“ weโ€™re talking about the kind where millions of strangers are watching, commenting, and acting like theyโ€™re your nosy neighbor peeking through the blinds. Brutal, right? Well, grab your popcorn because things are about to get โ€œbrutallyโ€ hilarious.

Shawn, now 26, and apparently way wiser than the rest of us, hopped on Jay Shettyโ€™s podcast like he was auditioning for a TED Talk on love and breakups. Spoiler alert: itโ€™s NOT your typical breakup chat where you eat ice cream in bed while watching reruns of sad rom-coms (or maybe it is, but heโ€™s just too cool to admit it).

Shawnโ€™s Philosophy 101: Surviving a Breakup in the Public Eye

Shawn starts off like a romance guru, dropping nuggets of wisdom like heโ€™s teaching a masterclass. โ€œCamila and I? Weโ€™ve done the best job at keeping our private lives private,โ€ he says, clearly unaware that the whole planet has been keeping tabs on them like theyโ€™re the hottest new Netflix drama.

But seriously, can you imagine trying to have a normal breakup when the internet has opinions? Shawn basically said, โ€œListen, when youโ€™ve got millions of people commenting on your relationship, itโ€™s hard not to be swayed by their hot takes.โ€ Picture this: every time he opens his phone, the entire world is like, โ€œAre they still together? Is that an engagement ring, or just a weird shadow?โ€ Who needs reality TV when youโ€™ve got Shawn Mendes’s love life?

Social Media: The Ultimate Buzzkill

So, whatโ€™s a guy to do when everyone from your high school crush to your second cousinโ€™s best friend is critiquing your breakup? Simple: yeet yourself off social media. Shawnโ€™s like, โ€œYeah, no thanks. Iโ€™m done with that circus.โ€ Apparently, he now lives in a peaceful bubble where heโ€™s blissfully unaware of what everyoneโ€™s saying about him and Camila. Must be nice, right?

โ€œI donโ€™t care about what people say about my love life anymore,โ€ Shawn declares, probably while sipping on some zen tea and meditating with an inspirational Pinterest quote in the background. Heโ€™s reached that next-level calm that we all aspire to โ€“ the kind where heโ€™s basically saying, โ€œLove is messy, breakups are messy, and honestly, Iโ€™m just trying not to turn this into a reality TV show.โ€

Plot Twist: Itโ€™s Not a Movie!

Shawn hits us with the realization that his love life isnโ€™t The Notebook โ€“ shocking, I know. โ€œThis is real life,โ€ he says, like we all werenโ€™t secretly hoping he and Camila would break up and make up in the rain while dramatic music swells in the background. Nope, apparently real-life love isnโ€™t all kisses in the rain and perfectly timed background music. Who knew?

He continues, โ€œLove is confusing and hard.โ€ Yep, Shawn, weโ€™ve all been there โ€“ like when youโ€™re trying to decide what to order for dinner with your significant other and it turns into a full-on existential crisis. Love is tough, people!

Over-Communication: The Secret Sauce to Not Losing Your Mind

Shawn also dropped some juicy relationship advice: over-communication. Thatโ€™s right โ€“ while the rest of us are out here misinterpreting cryptic texts and passive-aggressive emojis, Shawnโ€™s all about saying exactly whatโ€™s on his mind. โ€œI felt weird during this interview, and Iโ€™m sorry if I came off weird,โ€ he says to Camila. Can you imagine having that level of emotional intelligence? Instead of letting weird vibes simmer, these two just text each other and squash the drama before it can even begin. Goals, right?

Theyโ€™ve basically turned their phones into relationship-saving devices. Forget Instagram; itโ€™s all about, โ€œHey, are we good?โ€ texts. Shawn summed it up perfectly: โ€œAs long as weโ€™re good, weโ€™re good.โ€ Words to live by, people.

No Taylor Swift-ing Here!

And for all you nosy fans hoping Shawn and Camila would release epic breakup albums filled with thinly veiled jabs at each other โ€“ pump the brakes. Shawn shut that down real quick. โ€œWe respect each other too much for that,โ€ he says, as if he didnโ€™t just shatter our hopes of some juicy diss tracks. Instead, heโ€™s like, โ€œCamila? Sheโ€™s awesome. Total class act.โ€ Ugh, boringโ€ฆ but also, very mature of him. Weโ€™ll give him that.

If you were hoping for Shawn Mendes to dish out some dramatic, petty tea about his breakup, sorry to disappoint. But hey, at least we got a peek into his chillest breakup ever. So next time you go through a breakup, just remember: channel your inner Shawn Mendes, delete Instagram, and text your ex with some over-communication magic.
