Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco Announce Engagement: A Love Story in the Spotlight

February 15, 2025: Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have officially announced their engagement, marking a significant milestone in their relationship. The couple, who began dating in June 2023, shared the joyous news on December 11, 2024, through Gomez’s Instagram, captioning the post, “forever begins now…”

Designing the Perfect Ring

In a candid joint interview with Interview Magazine, Gomez and Blanco discussed the collaborative process of designing the engagement ring. Initially, Gomez envisioned a marquise-style diamond but reconsidered midway, feeling that large baguettes were “too much.” Blanco expressed his apprehension during this period, stating, “I tried not to f–k up.” Ultimately, they settled on a marquise-shaped diamond with a cathedral setting and eternity band, crafted in partnership with jewelry designers Katherine Theofilos Claster and Stephanie Theofilos from Abril Barret.

A Unique Proposal

Blanco proposed after a year of dating, orchestrating a memorable event on a Hollywood sound stage designed to resemble a Central Park picnic. The intimate setting featured a Taco Bell picnic, adding a personal touch to the occasion. Gomez has chosen to keep specific details of the proposal private, intending to share them with their future children.

Professional Collaboration

Beyond their personal relationship, Gomez and Blanco have also embarked on a professional journey together. They announced a surprise joint album titled “I Said I Love You First,” with the first single, “Scared of Loving You,” released recently. This project highlights their strong personal and professional bond, showcasing their collaborative creativity.

Looking Ahead

As they plan their future together, Gomez and Blanco continue to balance their personal lives with their professional endeavors. Fans eagerly anticipate both their upcoming wedding and the musical projects they have in store.
