Camila Mendes & ‘Riverdale’ Co-Star Charles Melton Have Made It Instagram Official & I Can’t

Love is alive and well on the set of Riverdale. First, we were gifted with #Bughead IRL. Now, I would like to introduce you to my newest ship: Camila Mendes and Charles Melton. 

Fans have been speculating over their relationship for months now, ever since the pair had been spotted out several times together, according to Seventeen. However, Camila put the mystery to rest after sharing a picture with Charles on Instagram.

They’re so cute! And it appears the duo’s co-stars ship them as much as everyone else. 

Both Vanessa Morgan and Madelaine Petsch were head-over-heels for the photo, commenting “OBSESSED!!!!!!!” and “YES IT IS!!!!!!,” respectively. 

Lili Reinhart left a simple little flower emoji while KJ APA, who plays Camila’s on-screen boyfriend, Archie, jokingly asked: “Are u guys dating?” to which Camila replied, “I’m sorry you had to find out this way.” 

Even her Riverdale father, Mark Counselos, left a comment in support of the relationship. “Ah the old eyeball smooch,” he wrote. 

Thank you both for making me believe in love again.
