Are Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco heading to the altar soon? Everyone’s favorite chef and Disney alum have been dating for eight months now, and based on their social media and interviews, they’re madly in love… you might even say she loves him like a love song. Benny makes Selena steak and watermelon pickle sandwiches, and she goes to battle for him in comments sections. It’s a heartwarming celeb love story. Maybe I’m in the minority, but I approve of their friends-to-lovers arc relationship; if Queen Selena’s happy, I’m happy.
There have been Selena and Benny engagement rumors swirling around for a while now, but Selena’s recent Insta post has a lot of people convinced that it’s finally a done deal. After conducting a super thorough investigation, here’s everything I know about Selena Gomez and Benny Bianco’s rumored engagement.
On August 8, Selena blessed us with a gorgeous mirror selfie Insta Story featuring her shimmery, off-the-shoulder dress and Benny sporting his signature ~casual~ attire in the background. Fans swiftly noticed that Selena placed pink hearts over her left ring finger. Selena, you trying to tell us something?? She also notably posted a carousel of romantic couple photos on the grid that same day. She shared pics of her and the BF (maybe fiancé) embracing on the beach and cuddling on the couch.

During a May appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Benny did not shy away when Howard asked if he would propose to Selena. “When I look at her, I don’t know a world where it could be better than this,” he said on the show. When the radio host later said he “predicted marriage” for Benny and Selena, Benny replied, “You and me both … I gotta get my act together.” The producer also shared that he definitely wants to have kids.
Selena responded to Benny’s marriage comments during an interview with TIME later that month. “He can’t lie to save his life,” she joked. “If he’s asked a question, he’ll answer it.” She didn’t seem to be opposed to spending the rest of their lives together, though. “I just cherish every moment with him,” she said. “I don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that he’s not going anywhere any time soon.”
Rooting for you, Belena.
