Fans of Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's iconic relationship were in for a treat as the exes were reportedly spotted smooching at Coachella this weekend.

The former 'it couple' - who had collaborated creatively on the song 'Señorita' - ended up dating for two years from the summer of 2019, before ultimately splitting in November 2021.

At the time, the couple released a joint statement on their respective Instagram stories announcing their split, saying (via Page Six): "Hey guys, we've decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for another as humans is stronger than ever."

The statement continued: "We started our relationship as best friends and will continue to be best friends. We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward. Camila and Shawn."

While Mendes, 24, and Cabello, 26, were notoriously private about their relationship, Cabello did get candid about how her priorities "shifted" and "fluctuated" during their relationship. "We both started so young, too," the former Fifth Harmony singer said during an interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe in March 2022. "It's like we're really learning how to be healthy adults. My priorities have fluctuated, and my focus has changed throughout my life."

Now, fans are hoping for a Mendes-Cabello reunion, after the duo were spotted kissing at Coachella, PEOPLE reports.

Fans have been in meltdown after the video went viral on Twitter, with one person writing: "If it's meant to be it will be and honestly if they really are back together then good for them :)"

"That's what I need," another comment read.

Obviously, the initial news of their split back in 2021 surprised fans, especially as the pair had been spotted making out in Miami earlier that month.

During the pandemic, the pair quarantined together in Miami, with Mendes, 24, saying in August 2021 that this ended up bringing them closer. "Camila and I were so lucky because we were able to just kind of be in a still moment, and it was the first time in the past six years that we've been just able to relax and not work at all," he said, per People.

"We were going on bike rides around Miami, and it just felt really beautiful," he added.

A while after their breakup, Mendes was linked to several women - including his own chiropractor Dr. Jocelyne Miranda, 51. He was also rumored to have been dating actress Sabrina Carpenter, but he shut down rumors on the Dutch TV program RTL Boulevard, saying he was "not dating" Carpenter, per Page Six.

As for Cabello, she was in a relationship with Lox Club CEO Austin Kevitch, having been first papped together in June 2022. They ended up parting ways just eight months later.

But after what we appear to have seen at Coachella, I guess we'll just have to watch this space!
