For years there has been speculation about Shawn Mendes and his sexuality, and after years of keeping his private life quiet (minus a public ‘relationship’ with Camilla Cabello), the singer is now speaking more freely.
“It always felt like such an intrusion to something personal to me and something that I was figuring out in myself something that I had yet to discover, and still have yet to discover”
The singer added that “Writing this song meant so much to me because I could address in a way where it felt close to my heart, and I guess, I’m speaking freely now because I wanna be closer to everyone”
Mendes continued, “The real truth about my life and sexuality is that, man I’m just figuring it out like everyone. I don’t really know sometimes and I know other times. It feels really scary because we live in a society that has a lot to say about that”.
