Selena Gomez Engaged to Record Producer Benny Blanco
Pop sensation and actress Selena Gomez has announced her engagement to record producer and songwriter Benny Blanco. The exciting news broke on Wednesday through Gomez’s Instagram, where she shared a heartfelt post featuring a stunning close-up of her diamond ring.
“Forever begins now,” Gomez captioned the post, which also included charming photos of the couple enjoying a picnic. Blanco, 36, quickly chimed in with a playful comment, “Hey wait… that’s my wife.”
The engagement has drawn congratulations from a slew of celebrity friends. Taylor Swift, Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cardi B, Lil Nas X, and Julia Michaels were among those who expressed their joy for the couple.
“Yes, I will be the flower girl,” Swift commented humorously, while Aniston shared her excitement with, “HONEY!! Congratulations sweet mama!”
A Love Story in Harmony
Gomez, 32, and Blanco publicly confirmed their relationship about a year ago. Over time, their bond has grown both personally and professionally. The couple has collaborated on several songs, including Gomez’s 2023 hit “Single Soon” and their earlier track “I Can’t Get Enough” in 2019.
Reflecting on their connection, Gomez has previously described Blanco as “my absolute everything in my heart.” Blanco reciprocated her sentiment during a May appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, where he expressed awe and gratitude for their relationship.
“She’s just the best, most genuine person,” he shared. “Every day I wake up and think, ‘How did I get so lucky?’”
A Journey of Achievements
Gomez has continued to shine in her career. The former Disney star recently earned Golden Globe nominations for her roles in Hulu’s hit series Only Murders in the Building and Netflix’s thriller-musical Emilia Pérez.
“I am so grateful and honored,” Gomez shared in a video posted to her Instagram Story after receiving the nominations.
Beyond acting, Gomez has also become a force in the beauty industry. Her cosmetics line, Rare Beauty, has flourished since its launch five years ago. In September, Bloomberg reported that Gomez had become one of the youngest self-made billionaires in the U.S., with a net worth of $1.3 billion.
Meanwhile, Benny Blanco’s illustrious career includes co-writing chart-topping hits for artists such as Rihanna, Katy Perry, Maroon 5, and Britney Spears.
A Bright Future Together
As Gomez and Blanco step into this new chapter, fans and friends alike are celebrating their love story. The couple’s journey is a testament to the harmony they’ve found both on and off the stage.
