Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes may have more than a new single going on between them. The two singers were photographed together over the Fourth of July holiday looking rather flirty, sparking rumors that there may be a bit of romance happening.

“He was holding her at one point and they were staring into the ocean,” a source told E! News. “They both were smiling the entire time and Camilla was laughing a lot. They rarely mingled with other people and were together the entire evening. They were telling people they were a couple.”

Cabello recently broke up with her boyfriend of over a year, Matthew Hussey, last month. Shortly after the split was announced she released her sultry song (and accompanying steamy video) with Mendes, “Señorita.” Late last month, Cabello responded to people commenting on her split from Hussey, asking them to stop adding “more pain to pain.”

“If you really love me, please do not send people I love and care about hateful things," she wrote. “You doing that really hurts me, and it’s so unnecessary and heavy and damaging to add more pain to pain. There’s a real person behind your tweets. You spamming them with hateful, insensitive things is really not funny, is causing all of us pain, and doesn’t all reflect the values I talk about.”

If she and Mendes really are dating, though, don’t expect the couple to be too open about it. In an interview with Billboard last year, she spoke about her decision to keep her personal life private.

“I know that it would be a lot more interesting for people if I posted more about my private life or was involved in the gossip or whatever," she said. “I just don't like it. I just want to be a good artist. I don't want to be a great celebrity. I'm not!”
