Shawn Mendes and Brazilian actress Bruna Marquezine just made their rumored romance look a whole lot more official. The pair were spotted ringing in 2026 together in Brazil — first soaking up the sun in the luxurious coastal paradise of Alagoas before flying out of Rio de Janeiro’s Galeão International Airport side by side. Their New Year’s getaway turned heads across social media as fans and paparazzi captured intimate moments of the duo laughing, hugging, and sharing beach strolls that could’ve been pulled straight from a movie.
Eyewitnesses described the two as “inseparable,” noting that they looked relaxed and completely smitten as they made their way through the airport, luggage in tow. Mendes, 27, kept things casual in linen pants and a baseball cap, while Marquezine, 29, radiated effortless glamour in a white halter dress and oversized sunglasses.
Before heading to Rio, the couple spent several days at one of Alagoas’s most exclusive beach resorts — a favorite among celebrities for its privacy and turquoise coastline. Photos of their romantic escape quickly went viral, showing the pop star and the Blue Beetle actress lounging by the water, enjoying seaside lunches, and sharing playful kisses under the sun.
While neither has officially confirmed their relationship, their actions have spoken louder than words. Insiders say the two grew close after crossing paths through mutual friends last year, and this holiday getaway seems to mark a new, more public chapter in their story. “They’ve been spending a lot of time together, and things are definitely getting serious,” one source told a Brazilian entertainment outlet.
For Marquezine, one of Brazil’s most celebrated stars, global attention is nothing new. After years of dominating telenovelas, her Hollywood breakthrough came in 2023 with Blue Beetle. “I’m hungry for roles that challenge me,” she told Elle at the time, adding that she was also looking for a “serene love.” Fans now can’t help but connect the dots.
Mendes, meanwhile, has largely kept his romantic life out of the spotlight since his breakup with Camila Cabello, focusing instead on his music and personal growth. But his Brazilian New Year’s adventure with Marquezine may have just sparked the internet’s next favorite celebrity love story.
As the two continue their travels, one thing is clear — Shawn Mendes and Bruna Marquezine are stepping into 2026 not just as global stars, but as the world’s newest power couple in the making.
