"I was late to dating and sex." In the "Armchair Expert" podcast, Camila Cabello revealed that she only lost her virginity in her 20s. Through a professional dating expert.

The "Havana" singer revealed that she met Matthew Hussey, who was nine years older than her, on the set of the "Today" show in 2018: "I was waiting for my performance and watched him. I knew his podcast 'Love Life' well." Afterwards, she sought out the British life coach and told him that "I'm a huge fan of his".

"I was late"
Hussey then invited her to dinner: "We went out for dinner that same evening and then my first relationship began. I was very late for it, I was 20."

When Shepard asked her if she had had sex before, the 27-year-old shook her head: "No, it was my first time with him. My first time making love at 20 or 21. It really was making love - so beautiful!"

Cabello continued to gush about her first boyfriend, who is now married. "He's a really good person. And he was the perfect first relationship. He really expanded my world because he wasn't part of my industry. 2018 was really a great year for me!"

Affair with Drake?
Hussey and Cabello broke up in June 2019, just days before the singer released her hot music video "Señorita" with Shawn Mendes. A month later, the two were spotted holding hands in Hollywood. The rollercoaster relationship - including a long break - finally ended in February 2023.

Most recently, there were rumors that Cabello was having an affair with Drake. The two were photographed on vacation together in the Turks and Caicos Islands in December 2023.
