It’s finally official: Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are engaged!

After months of speculation, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco announced their engagement via Instagram on December 11, 2024. “Eternity begins now,” Gomez wrote on her main Instagram grid, sharing a picture of her marquise diamond ring with a simple manicure.

The next photo appeared to show the picnic proposal featuring Gomez’s favorite item: Taco Bell. Gomez also shared a selfie showing off the ring and a picture of Blanco kissing her on the forehead while she lays on the pink carpeted floor and shows off the ring. “Hey wait… that’s my wife,” Blanco commented on the post. Although he didn’t share his own post, Blanco re-shared Gomez’s final slide on his stories.

Blanco wasn’t the only one to express his love in the comments section of the long-awaited engagement announcement. “Yes, I will be the flower girl,” Taylor Swift also commented. “Waiiiitttt wait a minute 😱😱😱😱😱❤️❤️❤️,” wrote Cardi B. “Ahhhhhhhh yes yes yes!! Best news ever. I couldn’t be happier for you both ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” Emily in Paris star Lily Collins added. “OMMGGGGG CONGRATSSS AHHH,” remarked Lil Nas X, among many others.

The news of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s engagement comes at a time when speculation about their relationship is at an all-time high. The duo first sparked engagement rumors in August 2024 after Gomez posted a bathroom selfie of the two with her ring finger covered in a heart emoji, leading people to believe she was hiding an engagement ring.
