"He has been receiving a lot of backlash from the Riverdale community, even though it was actually Camila's choice to end the relationship."

The Brazilian beauty has admitted her preference for dating people outside of Hollywood — she's wishes to keep her relationships as private as possible. She talked about Victor in July with an interview with Nylon. "It's somebody completely out of the industry," she said. "It's funny because I'm more hesitant to talk about it because I don't want him to read this...It's just dating people in the industry is tough...It's hard when that's your world."
