Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's Romantic Moment at Coachella 2023: A Rekindled Romance?
At Coachella on Friday night, former couple Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello shared a passionate kiss, leaving fans excited and speculating about the status of their relationship. While it's uncertain whether this was a spontaneous act or indicative of a rekindled romance, the pair were seen enjoying each other's company at the music festival in Indio, California.
Mendes and Cabello were spotted socializing and having drinks with friends. Pop Crave shared a photo on Saturday after midnight, capturing Mendes tenderly holding Cabello's face as he kissed her in the same bar area where they were previously seen with friends.
A video of the ex-couple's public display of affection has also made its rounds on social media. In a clip shared by Los Angeles radio station KIIS-FM, Cabello looks up at Mendes while he attentively listens, drink in hand and smiling. Mendes sported a white t-shirt, khakis, and a blue headpiece, while Cabello wore a white tank top and blue denim.

Reports suggest that Mendes and Cabello arrived separately with their respective groups of friends and enjoyed multiple performances before their late-night encounter. Pop Crave posted a short video of the two, along with their friends, celebrating the evening.
The meaning behind this interaction remains unclear, as Entertainment Tonight reached out to representatives for both Cabello and Mendes but has not received a response. The pair dated for two years before ending their relationship in November 2021, reportedly due to being on different paths.
However, their amicable post-breakup relationship has been evident, with the two spotted hanging out and smiling together in Miami nearly two months after the split. In January 2022, Cabello commented on Mendes' Instagram post teasing new music, calling him a "crazy wildcat."
Fans speculated that Cabello's song "Bam Bam" was about Mendes, which she confirmed in a March 2022 interview with Zane Lowe. In April, Mendes spoke with Ryan Seacrest on his show On Air With Ryan Seacrest, saying, "I've loved Camila for so many years, and that will never change."
Cabello and Austin Kevitch ended their relationship in February after dating for less than a year.
