Selena Gomez has officially announced her engagement to musician Benny Blanco, sharing the joyful news with fans on Instagram today. The singer and actress, who is currently enjoying the success of her film Emilia Perez and her Golden Globe nomination, posted a series of intimate photos with her fiancé.
In the caption, Gomez wrote, “Forever begins now,” alongside images of the couple where she proudly displays her diamond engagement ring while cuddling with Blanco. One photo shows Gomez flashing her radiant smile as she showcases the ring. The announcement puts an end to months of speculation, including rumors that Blanco had proposed in August at their beach house, surrounded by friends.
Earlier this year, Gomez fueled engagement rumors after posting an Instagram Story featuring a double pink heart emoji over her left ring finger. Sources close to the couple confirmed that marriage had been a topic of discussion for some time, with Gomez reportedly considering Blanco her “endgame.”
The couple, who began dating in 2023, have been open about their deep connection. In May 2024, Blanco hinted at their future together during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, saying, “When I look at her… I’m always just like, I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.” He also shared that Gomez inspires him daily, despite jokingly admitting that she makes him feel self-conscious about his own achievements.
In a recent interview, Gomez described her relationship with Blanco as the “safest” she’s ever felt, adding, “I see a future with this person.”
This engagement marks another milestone for Gomez, who earlier this year became one of the youngest self-made billionaires in the world, with an estimated net worth of $1.3 billion.
