Selena Gomez has officially announced her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco through a heartwarming Instagram post. The singer shared four photos, including close-ups of her engagement ring and a tender moment with Blanco, who kissed her on the head as she proudly displayed her hand. The caption read, “Forever begins now,” sparking an outpouring of congratulations from fans and celebrity friends.
The couple, who began dating in 2023, first collaborated on music in 2019 with their track I Can’t Get Enough. While they kept their romance private initially, Gomez later called Blanco her “absolute everything” in a social media post, going public with their relationship in late 2023. Their connection deepened as they worked together on Gomez’s song Single Soon, released earlier this year.
In interviews, Gomez described the relationship as the “safest” and most fulfilling she has experienced. Blanco echoed her sentiments, sharing that he couldn’t imagine a better partner. The announcement has been celebrated by high-profile figures like Taylor Swift, Jennifer Aniston, and Ashley Benson, with Swift humorously volunteering to be the flower girl.
Fans have flooded the couple with well-wishes, celebrating Gomez’s journey to happiness. The engagement also highlights their shared understanding of the pressures of fame and the music industry, which Gomez has credited with strengthening their bond.
