Selena Gomez Engaged to Songwriter Benny Blanco
Selena Gomez has announced her engagement to songwriter Benny Blanco. The actress and singer shared a photo of her beautiful engagement ring on Instagram, captioning it, “forever begins now.” This news comes after the couple confirmed their relationship last year.
Many celebrities congratulated Gomez, including pop star Taylor Swift. Gomez posted more pictures showing her happiness while wearing the ring, and one photo shows Blanco hugging her in what looks like a closet. Blanco joked, “Hey wait… that’s my wife,” while Swift replied, “Yes I will be the flower girl.”
Other stars like Cardi B, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston, Suki Waterhouse, and Lil Nas X also sent their best wishes.
In an Instagram Story shared with her 423 million followers, Gomez showed a video of herself revealing the ring to friends on a video call. She said, “Yes to this,” which made her friends cheer.
Gomez and Blanco have worked together on songs like “I Can’t Get Enough” in 2019 and “Single Soon” in 2023 before they started dating. Blanco spoke about his love for Gomez on the Drew Barrymore Show, calling her “the best, most genuine person.”
Gomez, known for her hit song “Come & Get It,” previously had a well-known relationship with Justin Bieber. She became famous as a child actress on *Barney* and the Disney Channel before becoming a successful singer and actress.
This year, she made the billionaire celebrity list with a fortune of $1.3 billion, mostly from her Rare Beauty makeup line. Recently, she received two Golden Globe nominations: one for best supporting actress in *Emilia Pérez* and another for best actress in a TV series for *Only Murders in the Building*.
