AceShowbiz - Shawn Mendes has broken his silence after taking some time off social media. When explaining the reason behind his absence, the "Stitches" hitmaker admitted to having a "hard time" with them after splitting from Camila Cabello.

The 23-year-old made the confession when thanking his fans for supporting his breakup anthem, "It'll Be Okay". In an Instagram clip shared on Thursday, December 30, he explained, "I just wanted to make a little video and say thank you to everybody who has been connecting with 'It'll Be Okay' and posting videos."

"I'm having a little bit of a hard time with social media at the moment and just kind of my relationship with it," the Canadian native added. "But I have lots of people sending me videos and telling me what's going on."

Shawn further elaborated, "When I make music the ultimate goal is to kind of be sitting there and have some sort of my own truth revealed to me." He continued, "And a lot of the times when I'm writing songs, I'm usually using music as a platform to be able to get to a place inside of myself that I wouldn't be able to get to by just kind of talking to people or thinking about it."

"I see a lot of TikToks of people crying and getting emotional and stuff, and I hope that's because there's some truth in the song and there lies honesty in it," the Grammy nominee went on saying. "And I just feel so proud of that song and I feel so grateful that you guys are connecting with it and I feel so grateful that people are be vulnerable with it and people are just having fun with it."

"I just wanted to come on here and show my love and appreciation," Shawn pointed out. He then concluded his message, "I see you guys and I see how much love you're giving this song and giving me and that means the world to me. So thank you, I love you guys."

Shawn and Camila announced on November 17 that they had split after dating for 2 years. In a joint statement shared on their respective Instagram accounts, the former couple said, "Hey guys, we've decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever."
