‘Forever begins now…’. That’s how emotional Selena Gomez (32) was when she announced on her social networks that she is engaged to Benny Blanco (36), her boyfriend since 2023. The singer and actress, who conquered the world with her role in The Wizards of Waverly Place and who has recently shone in Spanish cinemas with Emilia Pérez, shared the news with her followers on Thursday 12 December, overflowing with affection and emotion.
Who is Selena Gomez’s future husband Benny Blanco?
Benny Blanco, whose real name is Benjamin Joseph Levin, is a renowned American rapper, DJ and music producer born on March 8, 1988. His career took off in 2007, when he began to make a name for himself in the music industry through his collaboration with the rap band Spank Rock. However, his big break came in 2008 when he was featured on Britney Spears’ iconic Circus.
The relationship between Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez began in 2023, and it was on December 7 of that same year when the singer made their romance official through a post on Instagram. Just a year later, Selena has used the same platform to announce the engagement, a gesture that has left all her followers delighted. In less than five hours, her post accumulated more than eight million likes, consolidating her once again as the queen of social media, with more than 423 million followers.
A touch of humour, and a bit of tenderness, was provided by Benny Blanco himself, who, in a comment under the post, surprised everyone with a playful statement: ‘Hey, wait… that’s my wife’.
