Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco spark engagement rumors: what we know so far

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco, two of the music industry's most beloved figures, have not only captivated fans with their individual talents but also with their blossoming romance. The couple, who initially forged a strong friendship, has now become one of Hollywood's most adored pairs.

Their popularity has reached a new level this week as speculation runs abuzz about they possibly taking their relationship to the next level—engagement— after Blanco made it clear in several interviews that he is very interested in marriage and having children with the Latina artist.

Selena Gomez looks happy

For years, fans have closely followed Gomez's romantic life, particularly after her highly publicized relationship with Justin Bieber. The emotional aftermath of that breakup was evident in Gomez's music, with songs like "Lose You to Love Me," which resonated deeply with her audience. However, her relationship with Benny Blanco has brought a refreshing wave of happiness, not only for the couple but also for Gomez's loyal fans, who have longed to see her find true love.

Gomez and Blanco have been inseparable since confirming their relationship, frequently appearing together in public and on social media. Their chemistry and deep connection have been evident, leading many to believe that they are in it for the long haul. This belief has only been strengthened by recent events that have set the internet ablaze with engagement rumors.

Engagement clues?

One of the most significant hints came from a recent Instagram story Gomez posted. In the image, the singer was seen lounging comfortably on a sofa, wrapped in cozy blankets, her dog by her side. While the picture seemed innocent enough, the absence of a direct caption or explanation allowed fans' imaginations to run wild. Many speculated that this quiet moment was an indication of something more profound happening in her life—possibly an engagement.

Then the Latina artist and Rare Beauty owner shared an image of both of them in a bathroom, getting ready to go out. There is nothing special about that, except that this is not the kind of content that she tends to post and the fact that she added pink heart stickers covering the ring finger of her left hand. The fans are convinced/hoping that she placed the stickers there to hide an engagement ring.

Adding fuel to the fire, fans have pointed out that the couple has been dropping subtle hints about their future together. Benny Blanco, 36, has been particularly vocal about his desire to settle down.

In a candid interview with Howard Stern, Blanco didn't shy away from expressing his hopes for the future with Gomez, 32. "It's something I think about every day. Starting a family is the next box I want to check," Blanco shared. "I have a lot of godchildren; I have a lot of nieces and nephews. I love being surrounded by kids."

These comments, combined with the couple's evident affection for one another, have led many to believe that an engagement is the logical next step. While neither Gomez nor Blanco has officially confirmed or denied the rumors, the buzz surrounding their relationship continues to grow.

For now, fans will have to wait for any official announcements. But one thing is certain—Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's love story is far from over, and the world is eagerly watching to see what comes next.
