Pop star Shawn Mendes publicly celebrated his girlfriend Bruna Marquezine's 31st birthday with an affectionate Instagram post, praising the Brazilian model and actress in both English and Portuguese. The gesture offers a rare, warm glimpse into the couple's relationship, which has been the subject of media interest since they reportedly began dating in December.

The post's caption read "Feliz aniversário my baby," with Mendes, 27, adding that she had "truly changed" his life. It also included footage from a joint visit to Casa Amarela Providência, a cultural centre for children in Rio de Janeiro's oldest favela, showing the pair being warmly greeted by local kids. Mendes previously dated fellow singer Camila Cabello from 2019 to 2023, and released his fifth studio album, Shawn, in November 2024.
