Selena Gomez has revealed her engagement to record producer Benny Blanco through an Instagram post shared on Wednesday. The 32-year-old singer and actress posted a photo featuring her engagement ring alongside a cozy, picnic-style setting, simply captioning it with the words, “forever begins now.”
Blanco, 36, humorously responded in the comments, referring to Gomez as “my wife.” The couple has been together publicly for about a year, their relationship blossoming after collaborating on songs like I Can’t Get Enough and Single Soon. Blanco is well-known for his work with high-profile artists such as Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, and Rihanna.
Gomez’s love life has often been in the spotlight, including her previous relationships with Justin Bieber and The Weeknd. Fans even gave her and Bieber the nickname „Jelena“ during their time together.
The engagement announcement quickly attracted attention from celebrities and fans alike. Taylor Swift expressed her excitement by offering to be the “flower girl,” while stars like Jennifer Aniston, Cardi B, Lil Nas X, and Gwyneth Paltrow also sent their congratulations.
Selena Gomez first gained widespread recognition as a teenager, starring in the Disney Channel series The Wizards of Waverly Place. Her career later expanded to include a successful run in the music industry, where she became a household name.
Beyond her artistic achievements, Gomez has also gained recognition as a businesswoman. She recently joined Bloomberg’s billionaire index, with her wealth largely attributed to her entrepreneurial success.
