Shawn Mendes goes shirtless in Miami as his ex Camila Cabello goes public with new romance

Shawn Mendes showcased his ripped abs and bulging pecs as he went shirtless for a swim with some pals while celebrating his 24th birthday in Miami, Florida on Sunday.

As he was spotted dipping in and out of waves, the Canadian pop star smiled while running his fingers through his hair while displaying several of his 16 known tattoos.

The Señorita hitmaker’s outing comes on the same day his ex Camila Cabello went public with Lox Club owner, Austin Kevitch, following their split in November 2021. 

While soaking up the sunshine, he was beaming from ear to ear in a pair of black board shorts, a silver pendant.  

Onlookers were also able to catch a glimpse of the butterfly tattoo filled with flowers on his arm and sparrow on his hand under his first piece of ink of a tree-filled guitar. 

As he prepared to spend his first birthday without Cabello, 25, since the end of their nearly three-year romance, the Cinderella actress cuddled up with her new beau on a coffee date in Los Angeles.

The two were seen hand-in-hand with Camila giving a kiss on her beau’s cheek as they spent some quality time together during a romantic coffee date. 

Her new man is the co-founder of the dating app Lox Club, dubbed the ‘Jewish Raya’ – that bills itself as ‘a private dating app for Jews (and non-Jews) with ridiculously high standards.’ 

Rumors and speculations began spreading earlier this summer in June that the singer and CEO were a possible item when they were spotted together in Los Angeles on a stroll. 

However, the rumors have been confirmed with their displays of love and affection for each other on Sunday.

Camila and Mendes began dating following the collaboration on their second single in 2019, Senorita.

The two had known each other for years before, and had released their first single, I Know What You Did Last Summer, in 2015.

Shortly after, the two were spotted in July 2019 appearing to be more than just friends. During that time, Camila gushed about Shawn in an interview with Clash Magazine.

‘I feel like it’s so rare to meet someone in this industry and find a person of that quality, and I feel like Shawn is that person for me.’

After two years of dating in 2021, Shawn shared an adorable anniversary picture of the two, with the caption, ‘Happy 2 years my baby.’

In October 2021, the former Fifth Harmony member opened up to Glamour about the difficulty of their relationship constantly being in the spotlight.

‘When stuff that’s negative is out there, it’s going to get to you,’ she explained to the publication.

‘So yeah, that’s very, very challenging. I feel like it’s another thing therapy has been really helpful for,’ Camila added.

One month later in November, the couple decided to go their separate ways and announced their split on Instagram.

‘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.’

Despite having broken up, the two appear to still be on good terms, and were seen together in Miami earlier this year in January.

During an interview with Zane Lowe in March, the singer opened up about Shawn and how she feels since their break up.

‘I love Shawn and I feel like there is literally nothing but love for him,’ she revealed. ‘As I get older, the priorities shift. And I feel like that was that way for both of us. Because we both started so young too, it’s like we’re really learning how to be healthy adults.’
