The singer hit the beach with Henry Junior Chalhoub Jan. 4 in St. Barts, seemingly confirming their rumored romance with plenty of PDA.
Cabello, 27, frolicked in a brown-and-white bikini while holding hands with Chalhoub, 38, who sported a dark bathing suit. The two also shared a steamy kiss as they waded further into the water during the romantic outing.
The beach day marked the first public outing for the couple, after the “Havana” singer and the Lebanese businessman—whose family is worth an estimated $1.7 billion, according to Forbes—were first linked in November 2024 when they both attended an Elie Saab afterparty in Saudi Arabia, according to multiple reports.
The Fifth Harmony alum previously dated Shawn Mendes from 2019 to 2021, though they briefly reunited in 2023. And while the two have remained friendly following their split, Mendes recently admitted their relationship isn’t what it used to be.
“I think we haven't been the closest over the last couple of years,” the “Treat You Better” singer told Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe in November, “but I think we really know each other.”

“We spent a lot of time together, we really know each other's hearts,” Mendes, 26, continued. “Even when all the sound and all the noise is happening, we can kinda see through each other's bulls--t pretty easily. And it's just nice to have that.”
Cabello also had high praise for her ex as she discussed their reconciliation—and subsequent second split.

“I will always care about him and love him, he's such a good person," she told Alex Cooper in a March 2024 episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. "I'm lucky cause some people have exes who are awful—and he is not. He's a really kind, good person.
