After one false alarm and months of speculation, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are officially engaged. The actress announced the engagement on Instagram late Wednesday night with photos of a sparkling rock and her and her fiancé cuddling on the floor. It looks as though the proposal took place on a picnic blanket in a fake park (please don’t ask questions, I don’t have answers) surrounded by Taco Bell — fitting for a couple of admitted meat lovers. Gomez captioned the photo dump: “forever begins now..”
The couple, who began dating in 2023, received an influx of love from their celebrity friends. Taylor Swift, who counts Gomez as one of her most coveted squad members, confirmed she’d be happy to “be the flower girl.” Among the other famous folks sending the couple well wishes were Jennifer Aniston, Cardi B, and Law & Order’s Mariska Hargitay. Blanco also commented on Gomez’s post: “hey wait… that’s my wife.” Good eye, meatball king.
You know what? I have to say I’m happy for them both. As long as Blanco keeps bringing Gomez steak in bed, I will remain onboard. Wishing them a fairy-tale engagement full of friends, fried pickles, and an unlimited amount of Crunchwrap Supremes.
