Selena Gomez is having a remarkable year, which is culminating in an engagement to music producer and songwriter Benny Blanco.

The talented singer and actress shared her exciting news on Instagram Wednesday, showcasing her engagement ring alongside a heartfelt embrace with her fiancé, captioning the post with “Forever begins now.”

Celebrities and fans alike have chimed in with congratulatory messages, with rapper Lil Nas X expressing his happiness for the couple and Taylor Swift humorously offering to be the flower girl. Other well-known figures, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Lily Collins, and Padma Lakshmi, also sent their best wishes to the couple.

Adding to her achievements, Gomez became a double nominee for the Golden Globe Awards this past Monday, recognized for her performances in “Emilia Pérez” and the acclaimed series “Only Murders in the Building.”

In 2020, she established the Rare Impact Fund along with her successful cosmetics line, Rare Beauty. Gomez committed to donating 1% of all sales to this fund, aimed at improving mental health resources and education for young people.

Blanco and Gomez previously collaborated on the 2019 hit “I Can’t Get Enough,” which also featured artists J Balvin and Tainy. Benny Blanco made his mark on the music industry with the release of his inaugural single “Eastside” in 2018, a collaboration with Khalid and Halsey, which they performed together at the American Music Awards that same year.

As a notable writer and producer, Blanco’s impressive portfolio includes credits on hits like Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” Kesha’s “Tik Tok,” Britney Spears’ “Circus,” and Maroon 5’s “Moves Like Jagger,” showcasing his significant impact in the music world.
