Discussing how she feels about getting back with an ex on Call Her Daddy, Camila admitted: "I, personally, I think it’s known I’m a fan. I’m kind of impulsive in that way, I would say. If I feel it, I say it and I’m not really good at not doing that. Because the worst place for it to live is my mind, and then I’m like Ryan Gosling in The Notebook building a house for this person."

Alluding to her reunion with Shawn being caught on camera by paparazzi, Camila added: "I would rather say it and see what happens, and then wake up the next day and find out that it’s been heavily documented...I opted for that route. It is what it is. It was a great route, it was a fun time. It was a fun moment."

Camila then explained why she came to the realisation that she needed to break up with Shawn again. She said: "You’re just kind of like, 'It’s not a fit, it doesn’t feel right.' Luckily, I was in a place in my life where it took me less time to realise that. It took us both less time to be like, ‘This doesn’t feel right and we don’t need to try so hard to make it work. It’s all good.’"

Camila ended by saying: "I will always care about him and love him. He’s such a good person and I’m lucky because some people have exes that are awful, and he is not. He’s a really kind, good person."
