Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes appear to have reconnected as the former flames were spotted sitting together at the Copa América soccer final between Argentina and Colombia on Sunday, July 14.
The exes were seen chatting inside Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, in a video captured by a fan and shared on X (formerly Twitter).
Cabello wore her blonde hair down in relaxed waves as she positioned her sunglasses atop her head in the video. In another clip of the 27-year-old star on the jumbotron, she could be seen wearing a black tank top as she danced and sang along playfully for the camera.
On their respective Instagram Stories, Cabello and Mendes each shared snaps from the event.
The “Havana” singer previously dated Mendes, 25, for two years before they split in 2021. However, in April 2023, the two sparked reconciliation rumors when they were spotted kissing at Coachella.
During a March 2024 interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Cabello shared her thoughts on whether she thinks it’s a good idea to get back with an ex, saying, “I, personally, I think it’s known, I’m a fan. I support it. I’ve supported it in the past.”
“I personally think it’s helpful,” she added.
Of giving their love another shot, Cabello told host Alex Cooper, “I’m kind of impulsive in that way, I would say, like I feel like if I feel it, I say it and I’m not really good at not doing that, like I said. Then, the worst place for it to live is my mind, and then I’m like Ryan Gosling in The Notebook building a house for this person. So I would rather say it and see what happens, and then wake up the next day and find out that it’s been heavily documented. I opted for that route.”
“But it is what it is. It was a great route, it was a fun time. It was a fun moment and I will always care about him and love him. He’s such a good person,” Cabello noted. “And I’m lucky ’cause some people have exes that are awful, and he’s not. He’s a really kind, good person.”
Cabello and Mendes split for a second time in June 2023. At the time, a source told ET, “They gave things a try, but ultimately the timing isn’t right for either of them. They’re both staying busy and doing their own things.”
When asked how she and Mendes made the decision to end their romantic relationship the second time around, Cabello explained, “It wasn’t even a decision. I think you kind of are just like, ‘Yeah, this doesn’t really — it’s not a fit. It doesn’t feel right.’ And I think, luckily, I was in a place in my life where it took me less time to realize that. It took us both less time to be like, ‘This doesn’t feel right and we don’t really need to try so hard to make it work. It’s all good.'”
Cabello said she and Mendes agreed to be friends and still have love for each other.
Last month, Cabello dropped her fourth studio album, C,XOXO, featuring the lead single, “I Luv It.”
Meanwhile, Mendes shared in March that he’s been working on his first new release since 2020’s Wonder.
“It’s been a really long time since i last played live and I’m so excited to share that I’ll be headlining Rock In Rio on Sept 22nd,” he teased on Instagram. “I’ve missed being on stage and seeing you all in person so much! 😮💨♥️ I’ve also been working on a new album and i can’t wait to play these new songs live for you. See you there. eu te amo!!!!”
