Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have been dating since June 2023

The announcement, shared via a carousel of photos, gave fans a close-up of Gomez’s dazzling engagement ring and a candid moment of the couple celebrating with laughter and a warm embrace. "Forever begins now..," Gomez captioned the post, marking a monumental moment in their relationship. Blanco, clearly smitten, responded in the comments, "hey wait… that’s my wife."
Adding to the excitement, Gomez posted a mirror selfie on her Instagram Stories, proudly showing off her new sparkler to millions of adoring fans.

A Romance Years in the Making

Though their relationship began officially in June 2023, Gomez and Blanco's connection has been years in the making. The duo first crossed paths while collaborating on the 2019 hit single "I Can’t Get Enough" with Tainy and J Balvin. Their bond deepened over the years, eventually blossoming into romance.

In August 2023, Gomez released "Single Soon," produced by Blanco, further fueling speculation about their partnership. By December of that year, the rumors were confirmed when Gomez liked and commented on fan posts celebrating their relationship, even declaring Blanco as "my absolute everything in my heart."

Their love was on full display at the 2024 Emmys in January, where the couple made their red carpet debut, radiating joy and affection.

Mutual Respect and Unwavering Support

The couple has often spoken about the foundation of their relationship. In a February 2024 interview with Zane Lowe, Gomez praised the importance of mutual respect and understanding. "It's really nice to lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. I feel the safest I ever have, and it’s been really lovely," she shared.

Blanco echoed similar sentiments during a May 2024 appearance on The Howard Stern Show. "When I look at her... I can’t imagine a better world than the one I’m in with her," he said, showcasing his admiration for Gomez.

Love Found in the Unlikeliest Moment

For Gomez, the journey to love was a personal one. Reflecting on her past in a 2024 interview with TIME, she revealed her plan to adopt if she hadn’t found a partner by age 35. "I was alone for five years and learned to embrace it," she shared. "Then Benny came into my life when I least expected it."

Blanco, for his part, admitted that his feelings for Gomez didn’t fully register at first. "It’s crazy how your partner can be right there all along," he said in an interview with WSJ. Magazine. "Then you have that 'Clueless' moment where you realize, 'Wait, I’m in love.'"

A Future Filled with Promise

The couple has consistently shared glimpses of their relationship on social media. From Gomez’s heartfelt birthday tribute in March to sunlit snapshots of their quiet moments together, their love story continues to captivate fans worldwide.

Now, with an engagement to celebrate, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are ready to turn their "forever" into reality—a love story for the ages.
