How to get echo to print only deleted file paths? - linux

Question

I'm trying to write a script to create mysqldumps daily in a directory as well as check all the backups in that directory and remove any older than 7 days that is going to run on cron.
So my functions work correctly, it's just my last echo command that is not doing what I want it to. This is what I have so far:
DBNAME=database
DATE=`date +\%Y-\%m-\%d_\%H\%M`
SQLFILE=$DBNAME-${DATE}.sql
curr_dir=$1
#MAIN
mysqldump -u root -ppassword --databases $DBNAME > $SQLFILE
echo "$SQLFILE has been successfully created."
#Remove files older than 7 days
for filepath in "$curr_dir"*
do
find "$filepath" -mtime +7 -type f -delete
echo "$filepath has been deleted."
done
exit
So the backup creations and removal of old files both work. But, my problem is that echo "$filepath has been deleted." is printing all files in the directory instead of just the files older than 7 days that were deleted. Where am I going wrong here?
EDIT (Full solution):
This is the full solution that wound up working for me using everyone's advice from the answers and comments. This works for cron jobs. I had to specify the main function's output filepath because the files were being created in the root directory instead of the path specified in Argument $1.
Thank you everyone for the help! The if statement also checks whether or not $1 is the specified directory I want files to be deleted in.

echo "$SQLFILE has been successfully created."

do
if [[ $1 = "/path/to/db-backups/directory" ]]; then
find "$filepath" -mtime +7 -type f -delete -exec sh -c 'printf "%s has been deleted.\n" "$#"' _ {} +
fi
done
exit

You can merge the echo into the find:
find "$filepath" -mtime +7 -type f -delete -exec echo '{}' "has been deleted." \;
The -delete option is just a shortcut for -exec rm '{}' \; and all the -exec commands are run in the sequence you specify them in.
