Camila and Shawn decided to break up last November, sharing a statement online that read: “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. Camila and Shawn.”

In January a source close to Camila has revealed that Shawn initiated the conversation about them parting ways.

Speaking to E! News, they shared that Camila was “very upset over the split,” but she “agreed” that it was probably the best thing to do.

“It was really hard for a few days but she has been spending a lot of time with friends and keeping busy,” they continued, before adding: “She has a huge support system and is feeling renewed now.”

Although both Camila and Shawn are serious about making their friendship work, that according to the insider it was “not a bad break up at all” and just came down to the relationship running its course.

“The relationship was getting stale and complacent and they decided they are better off being friends.”
