Benny Blanco knows how to turn Selena Gomez‘s love on. With a sweet post on Instagram Stories Friday (April 12), the singer-actress publicly professed her feelings for her boyfriend and shared an adorable photo with the producer.
The snap finds the Rare Beauty founder posing with Blanco in the car, the “Eastside” artist holding Gomez’s hand and kissing it. “I love you,” she captioned the post. Blanco also shared her Story on his own account, without comment.
The Only Murders in the Building star also showed support for her beau in another Story by sharing a reminder to pre-order Blanco’s upcoming cookbook with Jess Damuch, Open Wide, writing, “My favs.”
She and Blanco have been dating since last year, going public with their romance in December after Gomez confirmed in comments on Instagram that they’d been an item for six months at that point. In January, they snuggled up courtside at an L.A. Lakers game, then attended the Emmys together a few weeks later.
In March, the “Lose You to Love Me” artist celebrated Blanco’s birthday on Instagram, writing that his “emotional endurance, positive disposition, unbelievable talent (that blows me away), undeniable humor and loving, kind heart absolutely kill me.” Later that month, she commemorated their “first virtual date” with another post on Stories, writing, “#longdistancerelationship vibes.”
After releasing a duo of singles in August and February — “Single Soon,” which Blanco produced, and “Love On” — Gomez is expected to finish her highly anticipated fourth studio album in 2024. She also has a number of onscreen projects in the works, including an upcoming reboot of Wizards of Waverly Place and the next season of Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building.
“I want to continue working towards my goals,” she told Billboard in March. “In the acting field, I feel like I haven’t even started. And with music, it’s always evolving. It’s such a therapeutic experience for me.”
