Shawn Mendes got candid about his relationship with Camilla Cabelo while giving a rare glimpse at his love life.
The Canadian singer said that his ladylove is the reason his perspective towards love and relationships have changed.
In a recent interview with Elton John, Mendes said that ‘Cabello has a very calming influence on him’. “You know what it was more than anything?” he continued.
“I don’t know if it was something that was a ‘me thing’ or a ‘men thing,’ but I think for seven years, I was on such a speedy path down one way with blinders on, and I wasn’t keeping in touch with my family and friends…but when I landed with Camila, immediately she had her family around more,” Mendes added.
“[She’s] all about the family and friends, and it really made me like, ‘Oh, I should call my mom.’ I started reaching back out to my family and friends and all of these connections I felt were further away…I felt a little bit alone out there and she changed that for me.”
Mendes also said Cabello has a positive influence on his music as well.
“There is a song on the record called Song for No One. I wrote it three years ago, and it was before any conceptualization of this album,” he said about how Cabello contributed towards the creation of that song.
