Selena Gomez reveals engagement to Benny Blanco in touching Instagram announcement

Selena Gomez recently made a big announcement on social media, revealing her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco.

The actress from Only Murders in the Building began her relationship with Blanco in 2023, and they are now set to tie the knot.

Before their romantic involvement, Gomez and Blanco worked together on the song ‘I Can’t Get Enough,’ which came out in February 2019. The music video for the song, released the following month, showcased the duo together, as noted by Billboard.

Additionally, Blanco was a co-producer on Gomez’s hit ‘Single Soon,’ released in August 2023. At that time, the couple had not disclosed their relationship to the public.

In December of that year, Gomez confirmed their relationship via Instagram by interacting with fans, referring to Blanco as her ‘absolute everything’ and mentioning they had been dating for six months.

The couple officially announced their relationship on Instagram later that month, as Gomez posted photos featuring Blanco, marking the beginning of their public romance.

They have been open about their relationship on social media, sharing glimpses and speaking about their bond.

In a February interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1, Gomez discussed her relationship, saying: “Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you.”

“And I think it’s really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. I’d have to say overall, it’s the safest that I feel and it’s been really lovely. I’ve only grown through it, so it’s awesome,” she added.

Blanco also opened up about their relationship on The Howard Stern Show, expressing his admiration for Gomez and stating he can’t envision a better situation than being with her.

The couple’s engagement has now been confirmed by Gomez herself.

On December 12, Gomez took to Instagram to announce the exciting news.

Her post featured four images: the first showed her hand with the engagement ring; the second depicted her sitting on a garden rug admiring her ring; the third was a selfie of Gomez smiling down at her ring; and the fourth showed her embraced by Blanco as he kissed her head while she displayed her ring to the camera with a smile.

Her caption read: “Forever begins now..”

The announcement post quickly garnered attention with numerous congratulations from fans and celebrities alike.

Jennifer Aniston commented: “HONEY!! Congratulations sweet mama!”

Gomez’s brand, Rare Beauty, expressed their joy by commenting: “CONGRATULATIONS so happy for you two!!” Taylor Swift also chimed in with: “Yes, I will be the flower girl.”

Disney Wizard Series offered their congratulations: “Congratulations! Wishing you a lifetime of magic together.”

The Hulu account responded with: “We’re crying,” while Pretty Little Liars actress Ashley Benson wrote: “Congrats lovey. So happy for you.”
