During a candid discussion on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, Camila Cabello revealed intimate details about her romantic journey, including waiting until the age of 20 to lose her virginity in her first serious relationship with dating expert Matthew Hussey.
The “Havana” singer reminisced about their initial meeting, which occurred on the set of the Today show in 2018. Camila, 27, expressed her admiration for Matthew, 36, whom she had previously listened to on his podcast. Their connection deepened over dinner that night, marking the beginning of Camila’s first relationship, a significant milestone she felt came later than expected.
Before meeting Matthew, Camila shared that she had never experienced a romantic relationship, channeling her feelings of loneliness into her music. Their relationship brought new dimensions to her life, introducing her to a world beyond the music industry and expanding her cultural references.
Reflecting on their time together, Camila described their relationship as “beautiful,” emphasizing the significance of their lovemaking experience at 20, which she cherished as a profound moment of intimacy.
Despite initially keeping their romance private, Camila eventually went public with their relationship in a November 2018 interview with Marie Claire. Their bond was evident as they enjoyed each other’s company and shared moments of joy and silliness.
Their relationship came to light publicly with photographs of the couple in Mexico, followed by their debut appearance at the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar party. However, their journey together came to an end in June 2019 after more than a year of dating.
Through her openness about her romantic experiences, Camila invites listeners to share in her journey of love, growth, and self-discovery, reminding us all of the complexities and joys of navigating relationships.
