Selena Gomez marries Benny Blanco in intimate ceremony

Selena Gomez has tied the knot with music producer and songwriter Benny Blanco, sharing the joyful news through an Instagram post on Saturday that featured the couple kissing and embracing on a sunlit lawn.

In the photo, Gomez, 33, wore a custom white halter-neck bridal gown adorned with floral details, while Blanco, 37, opted for a classic tuxedo and bow tie — both outfits designed by Ralph Lauren. “My wife in real life,” Blanco commented on the post, confirming the news that had been swirling following paparazzi sightings of a large outdoor wedding setup in the Santa Barbara area.

The couple, who got engaged late last year, have known each other for nearly a decade. They first collaborated on the 2019 single “I Can’t Get Enough”, which also featured J Balvin and Tainy.

Congratulatory messages poured in from across the entertainment world. The Instagram account for her Hulu series Only Murders in the Building posted: “Our Mabel is MARRIED,” while her Rare Beauty brand shared: “so happy for you two.” Celebrities including Camila Cabello and Amy Schumer also sent their best wishes.

Blanco, a Grammy-winning producer, is known for his work on major pop hits like Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” Britney Spears’ “Circus,” and Maroon 5’s “Moves Like Jagger.”

Gomez, who rose to fame as a child on Barney and Friends and later as a teen star on Disney’s Wizards of Waverly Place, has built a multifaceted career as a singer, actress, and entrepreneur. She currently stars alongside Steve Martin and Martin Short in Only Murders in the Building, a role that has earned her critical acclaim and award nominations.

With over 417 million followers, Gomez also holds the title of the most-followed woman on Instagram — and now, a newlywed.
