Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have officially announced their engagement, sending fans into a frenzy of excitement! The talented singer and actress and the music producer shared the joyful news on social media, celebrating this new chapter in their relationship. After years of friendship, the couple turned romance, and now, they’re ready to take the next big step together.
“Without getting into too much detail, I think it's just really important to meet someone that respects you,” she said. “And I think it's really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. But I'd have to say overall it's the safest that I feel and it's been really lovely and I've only grown through it, so it's awesome.”

This milestone comes after a year of growing closer, with the couple initially becoming friends while working together on the 2019 hit "I Can't Get Enough." Their romantic relationship began in June 2023, and by December, they were publicly sharing their love. In a touching interview on The Howard Stern Show, Benny had already expressed his dreams of marrying Selena, saying, “When I look at her … I’m always just like, I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.”
"I was alone for five years and I got really used to it. A lot of people are afraid of being alone and I probably tortured myself in my head for like two years being alone, and then I kind of accepted it. Then I came up with my plan, which was I was going to adopt at 35 if I had not met anyone," she continued, referring to her relationship with Blanco ."It just happens when you least expect it."
Their bond has only deepened since then, with Selena calling Benny “my absolute everything” in a heartfelt Instagram post. Their first red carpet appearance together was at the 2024 Emmys, and in interviews, Selena has spoken about the importance of finding someone who truly understands her world and makes her feel safe.

Selena’s journey to love was a process of self-acceptance. In a recent interview, she revealed that had she not met Benny, she planned to adopt a child at 35. However, as fate would have it, their love story unfolded when she least expected it, and now, they’re looking forward to a shared future together.
The engagement marks an exciting new chapter for Selena and Benny—one filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments ahead.
