Camila Cabello bares beach body as Shawn Mendes talks pregnancy scare (2024)

Camila Cabello showed her ex Shawn Mendes what he was missing as she flaunted her bikini body on the beach in San Diego this week.

Shawn, 26, and Camila, 27, went public as a couple over the summer of 2019 and broke up in 2021, then briefly reunited last year only to break up after six weeks.

Now, he has released a new song about a pregnancy scare that 'shook me to my core' - though he declined to name the woman involved.

The day the single dropped, Camila was spotted flaunting her assets to full advantage in a barely-there bikini as she pranced around on the beach.

Wearing her hair platinum blonde, the Havana singer opted for a frilly lime green two-piece that served up a generous helping of cleavage.

Lightly accentuating her feature with makeup, the Cinderella star accessorized the swimsuit with a backwards-turned blue baseball cap.

While wandering around on the shore, she occasionally garnished the look with a set of denim shorts that featured extravagant tears on both legs.

She left the fly of the shorts open over her bikini bottoms as she clambered around over the boulders, accompanied by friends as well as her father Alejandro.

Her outing came the same day Shawn dropped his latest single Why, Why, Why, reflecting on the moment when he thought he had sired a baby.

'I thought I was about to be a father - shook me to the core. I’m still a kid,' he sings in the bridge. 'Sometimes I still cry out for my mother.'

Earlier on the song, he confesses the regrets he still harbors about the end of a relationship with a woman he never identifies by name.

'Sweatin' through the sheets, shakin' in bed, visions of her naked in my head, but I went off and chose myself instead. Why, why, why? Ease my mind,' he croons.

Last month Shawn and Camila happened to cross paths when they both attended the final of the Copa America in Miami.

Although rumors flew about the nature of their encounter, a source revealed they 'were there coincidentally,' telling People: 'She actually took her dad as her date.'

'Shawn and Camilla are not dating,' an insider explained to Us Weeklyaround the same time, adding: 'They are just friends.'

The source noted that they 'will go months without speaking,' but that when they talk, they are 'always friendly,' behaving 'as if no time has passed.'

Shortly after her sighting with Shawn, Camila posed naked on Instagram and confessed she had been 'going thru it lately.'

The former Fifth Harmony member shared that it 'feels like sometimes there is heartache everywhere i look, within me and around me.'

She added in a lyrical vein that that she was fetching 'some bandages and warm honey and stitches for this head and heart.'

However she also made sure to look on the bright side, adding: 'you know i’ll be back from my trips to hell hotter funnier and smarter.;)))'

Last year, Camila hit the headlines for rekindling her public relationship with Shawn - only for news to leak of their breakup six weeks later.

Shawn and Camilaoriginally went public over the summer of 2019 and stayed together through the COVID-19 lockdowns only to split near the end of 2021.

Howeverby April 2023, rumors were swirling that they were back together – and confirmation came when they were glimpsed kissing at Coachella.

Late that month, a source exclusively told DailyMail.com that Shawn and Camila had been secretly dating for weeks and were 'seeing where things go.'

The insider added: 'Having played the field for two years now, they both know now how special what they had was. Not to mention that their sexual chemistry is off the hook. Camila turns Shawn on like no other woman. She always has.'

Shawn and Camila were also seen that May engaging in a public display of affection at a Taylor Swift concert at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium.

Yet by early June 2023, a source was claiming inThe Sunthat they had decided to bring the curtain down on the relationship once again.

'Shawn and Camila have a lot of history and they tested the waters again after coming back into each other’s lives,' the insider alleged.

'But it was just a fling and they’ve put an end to it now. They realized it was probably a mistake to give things another shot. Things ended between them the first time for a reason, after all,' the source went on.

Shawn and Camila announced their first split in November 2021 but assured fans in an Instagram statement that they were still 'best friends.'

At that time, an insider toldE! Newsthat Shawn 'initiated' the breakup, leaving Camila initially 'very upset over the split' until she 'agreed' they ought to separate.

Meanwhile aPeoplesource said the romance 'fizzled' after the coronavirus lockdowns when their busy work schedules resumed.

'They had this intense relationship last year and spent months together during the lockdown in Miami. They both seemed very happy and looked like they enjoyed having a break from working,' the insider alleged.

However the dynamic is said to have become 'different' with the return of 'normal life,' according to the source who spoke to the magazine.

'They have careers that are taking them in different directions. They went from spending every day together to now not really spending any time together.'

In the intervening time, Shawn was briefly linked to Sabrina Carpenter and Camila to Austin Kevitch, the founder of the dating app Lox Club that advertises itself as being 'for Jews (and non-Jews) with ridiculously high standards.'
