"I guess, to be honest, it came from a place of being a little annoyed with all the projection over the last few months about us. I’m usually pretty good at just watching all the ‘noise’ go by, but lately, it’s been kinda bugging me feeling human, I guess,” he admitted.

Shawn continued; "It’s pretty intimidating to come online and be honest and vulnerable considering how quickly our words can be twisted and used against us.

The singer also mentioned his past relationship on the "On Purpose with Jay Shetty" podcast. “I think Camila and I have just done the best job at preserving our private little fire of love for each other. Because no matter how strong mentally you are, when there are millions of people commenting on it, it's so hard not to be affected by it… This is real love, and it’s confusing and hard. I'm just lucky. She is an amazing human being,” Mendes said in footage from the episode.
