Camila Cabello has opened up about losing her virginity aged 20 to her celebrity ex-boyfriend.
The 'Senorita' singer, now 27, was first launched into the spotlight after appearing on X Factor USA with the girl group, Fifth Harmony.
However, the band split up in 2018 when Cabello decided to forge a career in music on her own.

And it's clear it wasn't just her professional life that was seeing some major events as some pretty big changes were also going down in her personal life at the same time.
Now, while we all know by now that losing your virginity is simply a social construct, people still seem to be very invested in the ages celebrities finally had sex for the very first time.
For Cabello, her first sexual experience was a 'beautiful' one however she did admit it was pretty 'late'.
She reflected on the moment during a recent appearance on The Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard podcast, while also revealing the name of the famous boyfriend she was dating at the time.
The 'Work from Home' star shared that about seven years back, she got into a relationship with British life coach, YouTuber and writer Matthew Hussey.
Cabello explained that she had sex for the first time with Hussey, describing the experience as 'beautiful'.
"I had my first relationship at that time," she said. "I had actually listened to [Hussey's] podcast before…because he had, like, a dating podcast. And he is married now, so congratulations!"
She continued: "It was late for my first relationship. I was 20.
"That was my first time having sex. First lovemaking was at 20, 21. … It was literally lovemaking. It was beautiful."
The pair dated for just a little over a year, between 2018 and 2019, but it's clear she still holds him in high regards.
"He was a really great person," Cabello praised. "It was like the perfect first relationship. It really expanded my world because he wasn’t in my industry too."
She recalled: "It was like, 'Oh my God, have you ever seen Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown and have you ever seen Studio Ghibli films?'"
Cabello went on to date fellow singer, Shawn Mendes, 25, after rumours of their romance following their steamy 'Senorita' track together back in 2019.
However, the couple decided to call it quits in 2021 but shocked fans are seemingly rekindling their flame during Coachella in April of this year after being spotted sharing a kiss during the music festival.
