Camila Cabello has said she wants to "protect" her relationship with Shawn Mendes as they want to "fall for each other like nobody is watching" and not invite the world into their romance.

The couple, who collaborated on their hit single Senorita, have been spotted packing in the PDA this summer, but the 22-year-old singer spoke about how she wants her love to be just "between me and that person."

"I don't know; people can say whatever they want to say. They can speculate, but at the same time, we are going to live our own lives, enjoy it, and fall for each other like nobody is watching," Cabello told ELLE.

"That is how I want to live. I never want to open the door for people to feel like they are involved. Like I said, I want it to be mine and [his]. That's why I'm so tight-lipped about it: because I want to protect it."

She added, "Love is the most sacred, precious thing to me. I want to always feel like my love is between me and that person, and never belonging to anyone else.

"As much as I love my fans, and as much as I love people, I like to live my life as normally as possible. In a relationship, it makes me feel uncomfortable to invite everyone in on that."

Speaking about their single Senorita, Cabello said she had "the best time" working with Mendes, "I mean, I love him. We have always connected; we have the best time together."
