You: a person who loves nothing more than obsessing over celebrity relationships to the point where your therapist has...noted it!

But before we get into it, a few top notes: Camila and Rudy connected on the set of their new film Música and have been going strong since.

“I’d like to keep it that way, for now. I don’t know, I’m constantly changing my perspective on it,” she says. “The things is, I love so hard when I’m in love that I always want to show off my lover. I get so mushy gushy with that…[We've been together] a few months. It’s new, new. As of like June. I am still in the honeymoon [phase], but it’s one of those situations where I feel like, and I’m really trying to temper myself here. I don’t wanna like speak above and beyond, but I feel like I’ve known him my whole life, and that’s something I actually have never felt before.”

March 2024
Rudy fully gushes about Camila in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, where he says their on-screen chemistry in Música crossed over to real life.
“She's Brazilian American, she's beautiful, she's immensely talented, and she really connected and personalized Isabella, her character, which was amazing because as we were shooting, our characters were having conversations that her and I were having conversations about in real life, so the lines would often blur between Rudy and Isabella and Rudy and Camila because of how personalized it was. Rudy and Isabella's connection translated to real life,” he said.
Soon after, they attend the premiere of Música in Miami! The vibe is: doing what you love with who you love.

As she tells the mag, “It worked out because we were getting to know each other off-set and we got to play out that dynamic in real-time in front of the camera, as we got to know each other as our characters. There was this natural kind of charismatic chemistry that existed in that scene.”
