Gomez and Blanco revealed their engagement on Wednesday, December 11.
Selena Gomez has found her perfect partner in fiancé Benny Blanco.
The couple got engaged on Wednesday, December 11, with a source sharing with PEOPLE that the Only Murders in the Building star has been “radiant” since the proposal.
“They’re incredibly supportive of one another,” the insider revealed. “He wants nothing but the best for her, and she feels the same for him. They truly complement each other perfectly.”
Blanco, 36, proposed with a Taco Bell picnic after a relationship of a year and a half. Gomez, 32, announced their engagement on Instagram the same day, showcasing her stunning diamond ring.
“Forever starts now..,” she wrote in her caption, to which Blanco humorously responded, “hey wait… that’s my wife.”
Selena Gomez, recently honored with two Golden Globe nominations for her roles in Only Murders in the Building and Emilia Pérez, shared her excitement over her engagement on Instagram Stories. In a heartfelt video, she flaunted her dazzling new ring during a FaceTime call.
“I said yes to this!” Gomez exclaimed to the person on the other end, who responded with an enthusiastic scream. “It’s so beautiful,” she added.
A-list friends joined in celebrating the happy news, with Taylor Swift chiming in on Gomez’s post, writing, “Yes, I will be the flower girl.”
The Rare Beauty founder and music producer Benny Blanco began dating in June 2023 after teaming up for their 2019 single, “I Can’t Get Enough,” alongside Tainy and J Balvin. Blanco later produced Gomez’s August 2023 track “Single Soon,” and by October, Gomez confirmed their relationship, referring to him as her “absolute everything” in an Instagram comment.
The couple made their red carpet debut at the 2024 Emmy Awards in January, solidifying their status as one of Hollywood’s most adored pairs. The following month, Gomez shared with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that she feels “the safest” she’s ever been in a relationship with Benny Blanco.
In November, Blanco opened up about their bond in PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive issue, highlighting his favorite moments with Gomez. “It’s those quiet mornings before the world wakes up that mean the most,” he revealed. “Having a true best friend to experience life with makes every day the best day of my life.”
Gomez, on the other hand, spoke with CBS Sunday Morning about her pride in their relationship, praising Blanco for his thoughtful attention to every aspect of who she is.
“It brings me so much happiness,” she said. “Above all, he’s my best friend. I feel incredibly fortunate.”
