Though she hasn’t said anything, Selena Gomez has at last addressed the speculations around her fiancé Benny Blanco, who has been suspected of adultery.
Given their long-standing friendship starting when they were around 17 years old, fans were surprised by the unexpected romance between Gomez and Blanco. Their relationship has been laid by their cooperation on the 2019 music producer “I Can’t Get Enough”.
Gomez announced her relationship with Blanco, whose full name is Benjamin Levin, only in December 2023. Apparently, sparks started ablaze when they worked on her song “Single Soon.” As they say, the 11-time Grammy nominee co-produced the song in August 2023; the rest is, quite literally, past.
He proposed to Gomez in December of last year; since then, the captivated pair has scarcely ventured outside the spotlight.
In an interview that Blanco and Interview Magazine conducted together earlier this year, Blanco expressed his concerns that the Disney Channel legend would have a change of heart and abandon their relationship without any further explanation. Gomez dismissed these concerns by fiercely praising their deep romantic relationship and highlighting his peculiar Valentine’s Day present, which consisted of filling a bathtub with nacho cheese and spreading chips on the floor to spell out “I love you.”
They drew interest once more last month when viewers noticed an unusual object in the background of a recent Instagram post: a lubricant bottle sloppily laying on the windowsill behind Gomez.
Though their relationship seems solid, rumours have been flying about lately implying Blanco might have betrayed his lover. The matter got more out of hand when Gomez strangely stopped following her close friend Theresa Marie on Instagram. Observant supporters claimed to have observed the OnlyFans star having a private meal with Blanco, which stoked more rumours on the couple’s relationship problems.
Gomez went to Instagram in response to the whirl of rumours to permanently stop the conjecture. Accepting the notion that “a picture says a thousand words,” she uploaded a friendly photograph of her pal that followers took as a direct refutation of the claims about cheating.
“lil blast from the past because basically I’m lying horizontal rn and reminiscing bout some memories,” the 32-year-old uploaded to her Instagram account alongside a number of heartfelt photographs of her loved ones. She accompanied her comment with a heart emoji to show her support for her statement. In 2014, Marie, who had previously worked as Kim Kardashian’s personal executive assistant, got to know Gomez at work, and by 2019, the two of them had developed a strong friendship.
Gomez remembered in a sincere Instagram homage from that era, “I met Theresa five years ago. Working together, we grew close friends. She has guided me towards a pleasant, carefree, and uplifting perspective on life. She has guided me towards being a confident and powerful woman. She is intelligent, lovely, and friendly. I wished only for her to follow and realise her aspirations since I respected her capacity to do so. And now look at you, bringing it about, T. I am immensely proud of you and love you.
