In May 2018, the two walked the red carpet at the 2018 Met Gala which fueled more rumours. Shawn explained the reason for walking the red carpet with Hailey, citing that they were friends. He disclosed this while speaking to People. He stated:
No, we were not making our big debut. We were both asked to walk by Tommy Hilfiger.
He added:
Obviously Hailey and I are friends, and it was just really cool for me to be able to walk with her because she’s a vet and it was my first year, so it kind of took the pressure off a little bit. I was thrilled to be able to go with her.
Later in 2018, Shawn eventually admitted they were more than friends in an interview with Rolling Stone. He mentioned:
I don't even wanna put a title on it. I think it was more of a zone of limbo. She's still one of the f---king coolest people ever — she's not just a beautiful person visually, but she's one of the most beautiful hearts I've ever met. I think I'm an idiot to not, you know …. But you can't control your heart.
In June 2018, Hailey rekindled her love with Justin Bieber after parting ways in 2017. They later engaged in July 2018 and tied the knot in September 2018.
Jocelyne Miranda (2022–2023)

We are not dating. But I think we should talk about Tommy Hilfiger pro.

Going to try to learn Spanish again... Haha
Camila replied to him by tweeting:
don't worry, you'll learn fast because you have an INCREDIBLE Spanish teacher whose name rhymes with Vamila Carmello

We can't do that! I mean Spanish and Canadian don't really mix
Cabello added:
We actually hate each other in real life. We can't stand each other.

Hey guys, we’ve decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever. We started our relationship as best friends and will continue to be best friends. We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward.

Mendes and Cabello remained friends. In April 2023, rumours spread they had rekindled their love. They were spotted kissing at Coachella. In March 2024, Cabello disclosed during her Call Her Daddy interview, why she and Mendes got back together briefly in summer 2023.
Below is what she said as reported via Billboard:
It’s crazy because I’m kind of impulsive in that way. If I feel it, I say it. 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. It is what it is. It was a fun time; it was a fun moment.
She added:
Breaking up again, it wasn’t even like a decision. I think you’re just kind of like, ‘Yeah this doesn’t really…it’s not a fit—it doesn’t feel right.’ Luckily, I was in a place in my life where…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, let’s move on.
