Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's new relationship is facing accusations of being fake.

Wendy Williams has accused Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello of dating just "to get to Number 1" on the singles charts.

Over the past couple of days, new photos and videos have emerged which have led fans to believe that Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello are in a romantic relationship. First, the two popstars released their duet 'Señorita' with a very intimate video and then they were spotted holding hands and cuddling each other and, last but not least, they were seen kissing in public.

All of this has made people think they're together but popular gossip, talk-show host Wendy Williams isn't convinced.

Discussing the relationship on The Wendy Williams Show, Wendy said that she doesn't believe that the two singers are in an actual relationship. She stated: "They do not look like. Especially this photo here. She's lookin' like 'Get my booty' and he's lookin' like 'When do we have to stop this charade?' And I'm like when your song goes to number one because people will believe they're a couple."

Wendy's co-host then replied: "Some people do think that it's just for publicity." Wendy shot back: "Some?!". Wendy added fuel to the fire by then suggesting that Shawn may have used other relationships for publicity. Speaking about a photo with Hailey Bieber, Wendy said: "Look at this picture. He doesn't look interested in her either. Maybe that was staged too?"

Wendy's remarks come right after Pornhub (yes, Pornhub) tweeted: "We're not buying it @ShawnMendes @Camila_Cabello." And I oop. Obviously no-one knows the ins and outs of Shawn and Camila's relationship but them. Plus the two of them are still yet to announce anything official about their relationship.

All we know is that 'Señorita' is a first-grade bop.

What do you think? Is Wendy out of line?
