Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello stepped out tonight for their biggest red carpet of the year: the Met Gala. The couple, who have been dating for two years, made their debut as a pair at the prestigious New York City fashion event. Cabello wore a purple sparkly crop top and skirt. Mendes wore an open leather jacket and black pants alongside her. The two were affectionate in front of the cameras.

Mendes and Cabello also appeared last night at the MTV VMAs in Brooklyn. The two made a splash earlier this month when they posed at the Miami premiere of Cabello's Amazon Prime film Cinderella together.

Last month, Mendes spoke to SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up about how he and Cabello handle their disagreements as a couple because yes, they do have them.

“We definitely fight, and we get in like the worst little arguments, but like, I think that we definitely are pretty good at picking up on when it's just ego talking,” Mendes said. “And we usually like, call each other out. It's we have a really honest and open relationship, but, but yeah, no, we definitely fight. I think like, especially like, I think the longer the relationship goes, it's like the easier it seems to be to fight. So, yeah, it's definitely not that holding hands all the time, but we're really good with each other. It never gets bad. It's always like a little fight.”

Sirius XM's Stanley T asked Mendes, “When you find yourself in an argument with her and then you realize in the argument you're wrong. How do you handle that? Do you just come out and say, ‘you know what, I've been thinking about it. I'm sorry’?”

“Yeah,” Mendes replied. “All of it, it takes all my might in the entire world, but I have to admit that I'm wrong, but it takes everything. My face probably looks like tight and red, but I say I'm wrong. Hopefully. I mean, maybe she would say something else. I'm sure. Sometimes I don't say I'm wrong.”
