When news of Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s split broke Wednesday night, fans were SHOCKED…
but an insider just revealed that the break up was reportedly coming “for some time.”
Let’s dive into it!
The split was heard all across the internet!
After two years of dating, Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes are officially no longer
an item and it looks like a source close to the former couple revealed that the split
isn’t exactly surprising.
Rumors that there was trouble in paradise began to swirl when gossip account DeuxMoi
posted a slide on November 16th that featured an exchange from “a week ago” claiming
to have overheard Camila discussing her break up on a flight from Miami to LA.
The submission claimed: “[Camila] is sitting in business class with another girl, scrolling
the movies and she asked the friend, ‘What would you watch if you just went through a
breakup?
Happy things or sad things?’
The friend says, ‘Happy first and then you can do sad.’
Camilla the allegedly responded, ‘Yes, I do not want to start sobbing on this plane.’”
That cuts deep… and in this case, it looks like the rumors were true, as Camila and Shawn
each released a joint statement the next day on both of their Instagram stories to confirm
the sad news.
Their statement read, “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 and will continue to be best friends.
We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward.
Camila and Shawn.”
Oh man…
But, it really sounds like an authentically, amicable break up, which makes this news a
bit less upsetting.
While the entire internet was surprised by the split, a source close to the former couple
revealed to Life & Style that they had apparently been preparing to break up for quite some
time…
The insider revealed that “They’ve been better friends than romantic partners for
a while … It was time to move on, they both knew it.
Their statement is true, they really will stay close as time goes on.”
Well, that’s good!
The pair do seem like they will be able to be friends once they both properly heal from
the pain and “heartbreak on both sides” of the break up.
We have a feeling that will happen sooner rather than later because the source explained
that there are “no real hard feelings” between the pair because “they’ve gone
through that [part] already.”
And honestly, they’ve given us music bops and plenty of TikTok content that we wouldn’t
want this friendship to be over.
The insider’s comments are certainly in line with the idea that they knew their breakup
was imminent.
But, honestly, we’re glad that they took the time to process their feelings privately
before announcing the split publicly.
The source was quick to say that the “bright
side” of their split is that the friendship they have with one another will help keep
things civil between them.
Phew!
We definitely need a follow-up to the smash hit “Senorita” so it’s good to know
that things are clearly civil between the two.
They explained, “There’s a lot of love and mutual respect between them, and they’ll
forever have each other’s back.”
And it seems like Camila is holding up just fine.
Gossip account, Deuxmoi posted another submission, the same day Shawn and Camila announced their
split, from an anonymous source that revealed they met Camila the night before during a
girls night out in a comedy club in Beverly Hills on November 13th.
So while this seems to be before they announced their split, no doubt she’s clearly leaning
on her friends for support during this time.
While we’re sad about the ShawMila break up, we trust that they’re doing what’s
best for the both of them, which is something we should all be celebrating them for.
Plus, we have no doubt these two will always love and support one another both behind the
scenes and publicly.
We hope they’re both doing ok and have all the support they need.
