In December 2020 while speaking with Sirius XM Shawn said that their friendship turned into a romantic relationship through a text. He said he had been bugging Camila about how he felt about her and then she finally replied saying she liked him too in the most basic way. Everything was going smoothly for the couple. They kept posting pictures and making appearances and we kept on anticipating ‘i said yes’ pictures. We were not prepared for what was about to hit us. 

The End of A Beautiful Relationship

November 2021, the couple announced their break up through a joint statement on E!

“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 appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward.”

She said her priorities had fluctuated and her focus had changed throughout her life. She stated that her focus was on how she could be a well-rounded person, and how she could be happy and have healthy relationships. She stated that her focus wasn’t even on her career and that she was doing a lot of therapy. 

They both became celebrities at a young age and according to her, they were still learning to be healthy adults which meant focusing on their careers. Fans feared that they’d stop being friends just like most exes do, but we are glad their friendship only grew stronger.
