Camila Cabello has shared that she lost her virginity at age 20 during what she described as a meaningful and positive first relationship. The singer said the experience happened later than many people expect, but felt right for her and was based on genuine connection.
The pop star rose to fame as a member of Camila Cabello’s former group Fifth Harmony, before leaving in 2016 to pursue a solo career. Since then, she has become one of pop music’s biggest stars, with billions of streams worldwide.
In a podcast interview, Cabello revealed that her first sexual relationship was with Matthew Hussey, an author and dating coach she had admired before meeting him. She said their relationship felt healthy and supportive, and that it helped her grow because he was not part of the music industry.
Cabello explained that the relationship began after they met on a TV show and went to dinner together. She described the experience as “lovemaking” and said it felt respectful and special, making it a “perfect first relationship” for her.
The pair later split in 2019 and both moved on with their lives. Cabello went on to date Shawn Mendes, while Hussey later married. Cabello has since said she is currently single and enjoying taking things slowly.
