Camila Cabello Dishes on Her Blossoming Relationship With Shawn Mendes: "I Love Him"
Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes might not shy away from PDA while hanging out, but don't expect them to talk much about their romance. In Elle magazine's October issue, Camila addressed the hearsay surrounding their relationship, and let's just say she's remaining pretty tight-lipped about details.
Following the release of their steamy music video for "Señorita," Camila and Shawn sparked dating rumors with a touchy-feely LA outing in early July, followed by a Miami makeout session later that month. Though they initially denied any sort of flame, Shawn recently told fans, "Honestly, I wanna say I wanna talk to you guys about this stuff, but it's not just me in the relationship. There's another person involved and I can't say things that I feel. It's not just me deciding, you know?" Well, Camila has now spoken her piece, and it sounds like she's taking their romance very seriously. Look ahead to read her thoughts on dating Shawn and their recent collaboration!

He was like, 'Hey, what if we work on this and do it together?' I was on the Taylor Swift tour and hadn't been in the studio for a while. I didn't want to do it, and then a few months later, I couldn't get the song out of my head. I [finally] told him, 'I think we should do this.' He was like, 'I don't want to do it anymore.' It went back and forth for, like, eight months. Then we finally went into the studio and reworked it so we both felt good about it, without any pressure. I love working with him so much."](https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/RirrOLGZSTlaj8i1A34nkysB4vM/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2019/09/05/627/n/1922398/11cdc91d94e0c19b_ELM100119WLCamila0004/i/On-working-with-Shawn-Mendes-on-Señorita-I-mean-I-love-him.jpg "On working with Shawn Mendes on \"Señorita\": \"I mean, I love him.
