Selenators, Selena Gomez, is officially off the market! 

The multi-talented singer, actress, and beauty mogul, 32, announced her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco, 36, and it's the love story we've all been rooting for. The power couple turned to social media late Wednesday (Dec. 11),night to share the exciting news. 

Gomez dropped a swoon-worthy carousel of photos. Front and center was a dazzling close-up of her engagement ring – an elegant rock the size of her heart. Another shot showed the newly engaged couple laughing and embracing, their joy practically jumping through the screen.


"Forever begins now…," she captioned the Instagram post. 

It wasn't long until Selenators flocked to the comment section to wish the lovebirds congratulations. A-listers even came out of the woodwork to send their best regards – Cardi B, Lil NasX, Gwyneth Paltrow, and more. 

Blanco is already gushing over his beautiful bride-to-be. 

"Hey wait… that's my wife," he wrote. 

The couple has yet to share the details about the proposal, but Gomez turned to her personal Instagram story to reveal a close-up of the ring and a precious moment of her Facetiming loved ones. 

Gomez and Blanco's love story goes way back to 2019 when they collaborated on the track "I Can't Get Enough" with Tainy and J Balvin. Fans initially raised eyebrows when Gomez dropped "Single Soon" – a Blanco-produced track – in August 2023. But the plot twist? The two waited until December 2023 to go public. The award-winning actress confirmed their status by interacting with a fan account, "He is my absolute everything in my heart." 

Fast forward a few months, and they became red-carpet royalty at the 2024 Emmys, where their chemistry was undeniable. Gomez is known for her vulnerability and authenticity and has never shied away from sharing her thoughts on love. 

"Without getting into too much detail, I think it's just really important to meet someone that respects you," she recently told  Apple Music's Zane Lowe. "And I think it's really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. But I'd have to say overall it's the safest that I feel, and it's been really lovely, and I've only grown through it, so it's awesome."

Benny echoed her sentiments, gushing in a previous interview, "When I look at her … I don't know a world where it could be better than this."

For fans, this engagement is a full-circle moment. Gomez has long been an inspiration, showing resilience through heartache and growth through self-love. Now, seeing her this happy feels like a win for all of us. What's next, Selenators? Let's manifest a Rare Beauty-inspired wedding collection.
