Back on Nov. 17, Camila and Shawn surprised fans when they announced their split after more than two years of dating.

"Hey guys, we've decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever," the pair wrote in a joint statement. "We started our relationship as best friends and will continue to be best friends."

The statement concluded, "We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward."

And before you think this was a messy breakup, those close to the pair insist there is no drama. In fact, both Shawn and Camila continue to support each other in various ways.

"It was not a bad breakup at all," a source previously told E! News. "The relationship was getting stale and complacent and they decided they are better off being friends." 

Relationships aside, both parties have a full plate in 2022. Shawn is preparing to kick off his Wonder world tour while Camila prepares to release her third solo studio album, Familia.
