AceShowbiz - Selena Gomez has set the internet abuzz after the singer followed a wedding planning agency on TikTok, fueling rumors of her engagement to boyfriend Benny Blanco. Fans first noticed the move earlier this week when she started following CMG Weddings & Events, a luxurious event planning business specializing in weddings in Los Angeles, Napa Valley, and San Francisco. This has added fuel to the already widespread speculation about Selena's relationship status.
The rumors began swirling earlier this month when Gomez, 32, posted a mirror selfie on Instagram. In the photo, she cheekily covered her ring finger with a heart emoji, prompting fans to suspect that she was hiding an engagement ring. In the snapshot, Gomez appeared in a glamorous gold off-the-shoulder dress, while Benny Blanco, 36, stood behind her wearing a white tank top and floral pants.
"Is she hiding the engagement ring??" one curious fan wrote on X, previously known as Twitter. Others quickly chimed in, with one stating, "She's def engaged. Similar comments flooded social media platforms, expressing joy and anticipation for the rumored wedding.
Adding to the excitement, DeuxMoi recently shared a tip that the couple "got engaged" while "surrounded by friends at their usual beach house hang out." Although neither Gomez nor Blanco has confirmed the engagement, insiders suggest that the couple is deeply committed. A source told "Entertainment Tonight" in January that Gomez "feels very at home and at ease with Benny."
Gomez and Blanco's relationship went public in December 2023 after they had been secretly dating for six months. Since then, Gomez has publicly described Benny as the "love of my life" and revealed that she was the first to say "I love you" in their relationship.
Notably, CMG Weddings & Events, the wedding planner Gomez followed, is one of only 73 accounts she follows on TikTok, where she has amassed 58.2 million followers. The business has experience working with celebrity clientele and has recently organized "The Bachelor" alumna Teddi Wright's wedding to Nicholas Meyers in Napa Valley.
According to insiders, Gomez and Blanco are very much on the same page about their future together. "They've talked about marriage and having children and are very much on the same page," a source disclosed to Us Weekly. Gomez's friends and family are also supportive of the match, and the pop star herself feels ready to settle down.
Selena, who owns homes in Los Angeles and Manhattan, is now reportedly considering a move to New York to be closer to Blanco, who is based there. As a high-flyer in the music industry, Benny Blanco has worked with a variety of top artists, including Selena herself.
Fans are eagerly awaiting more news, with many expressing their happiness for Gomez. "I'm so so so happy for Selena. I can not wait to see the wedding," one fan commented. As the world watches and waits, one thing is clear: the buzz surrounding Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's potential engagement shows no signs of slowing down.
