Pop star Selena Gomez has confirmed her relationship with record producer Benny Blanco, according to multiple sources. The confirmation came through a series of social media interactions, including Gomez liking and commenting on posts related to Blanco, and sharing a photo of herself with Blanco on her Instagram Story.
Benny Blanco, whose real name is Benjamin Levin, is a renowned songwriter and record producer. He has collaborated with a number of high-profile artists, including Rihanna, Britney Spears, and Gomez herself. In addition to his music career, Blanco is also set to publish a cookbook in April 2024.
The relationship between Gomez and Blanco has been the subject of speculation for some time, with Blanco being seen attending Gomez's charity event in October. Gomez has defended their relationship on social media, stating that she knows what's best for her.
In a somewhat cryptic move, Blanco had made a comment about Justin Bieber not being a cookie-cutter pop artist, which some fans believed referred to Gomez's makeup line. Gomez's mother has also reportedly started following Blanco on Instagram, further fueling the rumors of their relationship.
While the relationship has been confirmed by Gomez, representatives for Gomez and Blanco have not yet commented on the matter.
