Selena Gomez has officially announced her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco! The Only Murders in the Building star took to Instagram Wednesday night to reveal the big news, sharing a series of photos that included a close-up of a dazzling diamond engagement ring. Among the photos was a cozy snap of Selena cuddling with Benny and another of her lounging on a picnic blanket. She captioned the post:
“Eternity begins now.”
Benny couldn’t resist chiming in on the post, commenting humorously:
“Hey, wait… that’s my wife.”
Selena confirmed their relationship back in December 2023, following months of rumors, and now they’re taking the next big step together. In an Instagram story, Selena even showed off her ring during a FaceTime call, excitedly telling the person on the other end, “I said yes to this!”
Fans couldn’t be happier for the couple. Benny, who surprisingly made it to the Sexiest Men Alive 2024 list, may not fit the traditional Prince Charming mold for everyone, but as long as he treats Selena like a queen and makes her happy, what more could we ask for?
The couple had already hinted at wanting to start a family, so this engagement feels like the perfect beginning to their next chapter. Congratulations to the adorable duo! ❤️
