Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have taken the plunge and tied the knot! The renowned couple, who have been romantically linked since 2023, exchanged vows at an intimate private ceremony over the weekend, as revealed by a heartfelt post shared by Gomez on her social media. Grammy- and Emmy-nominated singer-actor Gomez, alongside Blanco—a celebrated record producer whose roster boasts his new bride among other illustrious names—went public with their relationship last year, captivating fans worldwide.
In December, Gomez took to Instagram to announce their engagement, penned with a simple yet profound message: "Forever begins now." The couple's journey began in 2015 when Blanco co-produced Gomez's chart-topping single "Same Old Love," marking the start of a creative partnership that flourished over the years. They collaborated once again on her 2019 hit "I Can't Get Enough" and the 2023 track "Single Soon." Earlier this year, they delighted fans by releasing their first joint album, "I Said I Love You First."
During a candid appearance on Jay Shetty's podcast in March, Gomez opened up about her transformation from guarding her heart to wholeheartedly embracing love with Blanco. "When Benny looks at me, I don't think he sees anything but who I truly am, and that's incredibly rare to find," she gushed about Blanco, whom she affectionately refers to as her "best friend."
Blanco, for his part, frequently showcases his culinary skills for Gomez on TikTok, whipping up homemade cheesesteak hot pockets just for her, and never misses a chance to shower her with praise. "It's so amazing to watch you stay true to your path, unconcerned with what's happening around you," he told Gomez in a video shared by Billboard on Facebook. "I feel like your energy, your mindset, and the way you've navigated the world as a woman have inspired so many other women... given them so much confidence."
Taylor Swift, a longtime confidante of Gomez's, chimed in on the engagement announcement in December, playfully offering her services as the flower girl. Gomez reciprocated the support when Swift got engaged this year, reposting the superstar's engagement photos on Instagram with the caption, "When your bestie gets engaged."
