Gomez officially announced her and Blanco’s engagement with a carousel post on Instagram, which she captioned, “Eternity begins now.” In the series of photos, she excitedly showed off her marquise-cut diamond — a nod to the line “I’m a marquise diamond/Might even make this Tiffany jealous” in her 2015 hit “Good For You” — and received a nice one Reaction from her future husband in the comments section saying, “Hey wait…that’s my wife.”
