Selena Gomez’s most prominent past relationship was with Justin Bieber, who she dated on and off during her late teens. They went public in February 2011 but split by November 2012 due to trust issues and the challenges of their busy schedules. Gomez later shared, “I don’t ever want her to feel like I’m ashamed of her,” revealing Bieber’s commitment despite the breakups.
After a period of being single, Gomez found love with Benny Blanco, a music producer she’s known for years. Blanco and Gomez’s relationship began quietly but blossomed into something special. She mentioned, “It just happens when you least expect it,” about realizing her feelings for him.
Blanco has shown his affection through thoughtful gestures. For Gomez’s 32nd birthday in July 2023, Blanco posted photos on Instagram, celebrating her with a heartfelt message: “I get to be yours in real life… happy bday bb! I love u!”
Despite some negative online reactions, Gomez defended her partner, stating he is “my absolute everything in my heart.” Blanco has expressed a desire to marry Gomez, revealing on “The Howard Stern Show” that he imagines a future together and is planning something special for their anniversary.
The couple’s bond is evident in their supportive interactions, including celebrating each other’s successes and enjoying shared moments. Gomez recently shared, “He’s not going anywhere any time soon,” affirming their commitment and love.
