For Christmas, Sabrina decided to surprise fans with a little musical gift – and fans couldn’t stop pointing at the Shawn Mendes reference.

Later on, a source confirmed their romance by talking to an entertainment outlet, saying, “Shawn and Sabrina are seeing each other. They have been hanging out a lot and trying to keep things low-key. They were at a birthday party together a couple weeks ago and were cute together. Shawn is happy.”
Though reports of their romance were kept at bay, many speculated the two of them to have a more serious thing going on. Over the months, however, they stopped hanging out and Shawn and Camila got back together for a steamy reconciliation.
Months later, Sabrina Carpenter dropped a Christmas EP and sang a gloomy Christmas ballad for her fans. Here’s why fans think it’s dedicated to Shawn Mendes.
