Benny Blanco is already picturing a future with Selena Gomez in which they get married. The 36-year-old record producer talked about his romance with Gomez, 31, and where he thinks it’s going on May 14 on The Howard Stern Show.
Blanco talked about their first Valentine’s Day together, when they rented out a movie theater and ate Gomez’s favorite foods. Howard Stern, the host, was impressed and said, “You’re some boyfriend, you’re knocking it out of the park.” I see love here, and I think they will get married.
Blanco replied with enthusiasm, “You and me both.”
Then Stern asked, “Do you have a ring?” Blanco answered in a funny way, “I don’t have anything.” I have no shoes on! “I need to get my act together.”
Stern went even further and asked, “When are you going to propose?” You need to make the announcement right now.”
Blanco laughed and said, “Every time I look at her, I think, ‘I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.'”
Blanco also said that their first anniversary is coming up, which is also Gomez’s birthday (July 22), and he hinted that he has “some really good stuff” planned. People always told him, “When you meet your best friend, she’s your best friend.” That’s how he felt about Gomez. She’s really cool, nice, and sweet.
“Every day we laugh.” I get ideas from her. When I get home from work, I feel good about the day. He added with a laugh, “Then I hear about her day and think mine is nothing compared to it.”
They told everyone they were dating in December 2023, and their first public appearance together was at the 2024 Emmys in January. Gomez made it official by liking fan posts on Instagram and writing, “He is my absolute everything in my heart.”
