The singer, actress, and Rare Beauty founder announced her engagement on her official Instagram account, sharing images of her stunning engagement ring with the caption, “forever begins now…”
Selena Gomez, 32, first revealed her relationship with record producer Benny Blanco in December 2023, although the two had been romantically linked since June of the previous year. They have collaborated on several tracks, including Gomez's 2023 single “Single Soon” and the 2019 hit “I Can’t Get Enough.” In a November interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Gomez expressed her feelings about her relationship, saying, “this is the safest I’ve ever felt in one, and I see a future with this person.”
It has been a remarkable year for Gomez, who has seen significant success in film, television, and now her personal life. Earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival, she won the best actress award alongside her co-stars Karla Sofía Gascón, Adriana Paz, and Zoe Saldaña for their film 'Emilia Perez'. She was also nominated for an Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series for her role in 'Hulu's Only Murders in the Building'. Recently, she received two Golden Globe nominations for her performances in 'Emilia Perez' and 'Only Murders in the Building'.
Last week, Gomez was honored with the Equity in Entertainment Award at The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment gala breakfast. Just the day before, she made headlines at the Academy Women’s Lunch event.
Benny Blanco, 36, is a renowned music producer who has collaborated with numerous top artists, including Ed Sheeran, BTS, and Justin Bieber, among others.
Reflecting on their relationship, Blanco remarked, “When I look at her ... I'm always just like, I don't know a world where it could be better than this.”
