Rudy Mancuso and Camila Mendes were first linked through work. Mancuso had written the Brazilian-American film, "Música," and in April 2022, news broke that Mendes had been cast. Mancuso confirmed the announcement with an Instagram post, expressing his excitement.

Shooting for "Música" wrapped that July and Mendes shared a video montage including clips of her co-stars and Mancuso. Dating rumors between the two didn't surface until they arrived together at the Venice Film Festival in September, where the film presumably premiered.

In November 2022, Mendes shared a "life update" post with photos depicting glimpses of her then-recent activities. The thread included a picture of Mancuso playing with her pup, Truffle. The last one was a window picture Mendes took showing Mancuso with his arms around her waist.

More photos featuring Mancuso followed throughout the rest of 2022. In January 2023, the lovebirds had their first public outing as an official couple, getting cozy with each other while enjoying a beach day in Miami.

Later in January, Mendes confirmed she had been in a relationship for a few months when she appeared on the "Going Mental" podcast, revealing that the romance began in June. The actress gushed about her beau, saying it felt like she'd known him her whole life.

Rudy Mancuso and Camila Mendes Are Committed To Making Their Long-Distance Romance Work

Mancuso has frequently cameoed on Mendes' timeline since their relationship became public. In February 2023, Mendes posted a picture of herself and her beau kissing. She sweetly captioned the photo, "meu valentine. te amo so much [...]."

More recently, the "Riverdale" star shared several snaps, with one showing her and Mancuso cozied up while watching TV. Vanessa Morgan commented, "Cutest," under the post. Back in February, Mendes spoke with E! News about her long-distance relationship with Mancuso and their Valentine's plans, saying:

"Honestly, I try to fly out, or he tries to fly out as much as possible. I'm flying back to Vancouver tonight. So yeah, filming all week, but a little FaceTime date. Long-distance life."

Rudy Mancuso's Dating History Includes Maia Mitchell

Mancuso dated actress Maia Mitchell for six years before their split became public in April 2022. Their separation was confirmed by an insider, who revealed their relationship had ended a few months prior.

His current girlfriend has also dated several famous faces, including her "Riverdale" co-star Charles Melton. The pair sparked romance rumors in 2018 and went Instagram-official later that year. Mendes explained their decision to go public, saying:

"I did it because people were speculating. I want to be able to live a normal life. Like, 'Yeah, I'm dating this person — so what?'"

The former couple took a break shortly after celebrating their first anniversary. In 2021, rumors surfaced that Mendes and Melton had rekindled their relationship after being seen hanging out with Cole Sprouse (who dated Lili Reinhart), where Melton allegedly put his arm around Mendes.

Still, it's unclear if they, indeed, reconciled. Before Melton, Mendes dated Victor Huston during the first half of 2018. After separating from her first-known former flame, she was linked to photographer Grayson Vaughan.
