The relationship between Selena Gomez and her boyfriend, Benny Blanco, has confused fans for some time now. The couple started dating back in 2023, and fans wondered how Benny could land Gomez due to him not being the most eye-catching celebrity. Blanco even joked that the singer is doing “charity work” by being with him due to his physical appearance. The pair do happen to go way back, though.
According to Marca, the two worked on songs together a few years back. However, the romance has Gomez fans angry because Selena is “out of Blanco’s league.” Although the producer takes these criticisms well, Benny stated that he understands that Selena’s fans hate him. On the other hand, Gomez herself couldn’t be happier.
Selena Gomez Opens Up About Benny Blanco
“He’s been the best thing that ever happened to me. The end. He’s been better than anyone I’ve ever been with,” she said. “I’ve been in therapy since I was 18, I know what’s best for me, and I’m going to fight until I get what I deserve. I appreciate your misguided input, but I am growing. Don’t feel free to grow up on me, just know that I’m not dating a f***boy anymore, sorry to disappoint.”
Not all of Selna Gomez’s fans hate Benny Blanco for his looks, though. Some fans just love that Gomez is finally happy with someone. They understand Benny has a “big heart” and a great career. However, they point out that Benny had some words for Selena for being in a very toxic relationship with Justin Bieber.
The two seemed to have moved past all of that, though, as they were as happy as ever with each other. Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco were seen with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at a Coachella after-party.
The two singers are long-time friends, and clearly wanted to introduce their significant others to each other. Benny and Selna are living their best lives despite what the headlines say.
