Selena Gomez fueled engagement speculation as she was spotted holding hands with rumored fiancé Benny Blanco, while also flashing a ring on her finger. The Only Murders in the Building star looked smitten as she cozied up to Benny during a recent outing. Dressed in a stylish white sleeveless top and flowy bottoms, Selena appeared radiant as she enjoyed time with her beau.
Benny, in a more casual outfit, added a pop of color with his green top as the pair were seen leaving the Malibu Chili Cook-Off after what seemed to be a fun evening. Fans couldn’t help but notice the ring Selena wore, though it wasn’t on her fourth finger, prompting further speculation about the couple’s relationship status.
Just last month, rumors of an engagement began swirling when Selena shared a cryptic social media post. The 32-year-old singer and actress, who previously dated Justin Bieber, posted a mirror selfie on Instagram with Benny in the background. In the photo, she strategically covered her ring finger with pink heart emojis, leaving fans curious, told The Mirror US.
One fan commented, “I think Selena Gomez just got engaged bc why is she covering her left hand on her latest IG story?” Another added, “That’s probably her engagement ring.” This isn’t the first time engagement rumors have surrounded the couple since they went public with their relationship in December last year.
The popular Instagram account Deuxmoi also contributed to the speculation by revealing an insider tip about an “A-list actress and semi-retired singer” getting engaged. The anonymous post, later shared on Reddit, hinted, “This A-list actress/semi-retired singer got engaged over the weekend to her boyfriend of a year. [They were] surrounded by friends at their usual beach hangout.” Many fans immediately connected the dots and assumed it referred to Selena and Benny. One fan excitedly wrote, “I hope this is true!” while another added, “They seem great together.”
Rumors of their relationship began circulating in November last year, with Selena confirming their romance in December. In a heartfelt Instagram post, she wrote, “He is my absolute everything in my heart. He’s still better than anyone I’ve ever been with. Facts.”
Earlier this year, Only Murders in the Building costume designer Dana Covarrubias hinted at the couple’s strong bond. When asked about a potential engagement, she said, “I don’t know. I hope so. They seem so happy and in love, so fingers crossed.”
