In a letter to fans announcing the album, Mendes wrote: "I've missed you all so much! I know it's been a really scary year for everyone so I'm sending buckets of love to all of you.

"I wrote an album. It's called Wonder. it really feels like a piece of me has been written down on paper and recorded into song. I tried to be as real and as honest as I've ever been.

"It's a world and a journey and a dream and an album I've been wanting to make for a really long time. I absolutely love it. Thank you for being by my side for so many years. I love you all so much.
