Selena Gomez cuddles boyfriend Benny Blanco in new sweet snap after defending romance
[ad_1]
Selena Gomez is pushing past her fans’ criticisms of her new relationship by sharing an intimate snap of her and boyfriend Benny Blanco.
The “Heart Wants What it Wants” singer posted on Instagram late Tuesday a black-and-white photo of the famed music producer burying himself in her arms while she sports an enormous grin.
She didn’t caption the Story and instead let the photo do the talking.
Hours earlier, she posted a selfie showing off the diamond “B” ring Blanco had gifted her, which many fans believed to be from fast-fashion brand Shein.
It appears Gomez, 31, saw the speculation as she made sure to tag the bauble’s designer, Jacquie Aiche.
The “Only Murders in the Building” star shocked fans when she confirmed her relationship with Blanco because he has worked with her ex Justin Bieber for years.
While defending the romance against her naysayers, Gomez described Blanco, 35, as “the best thing that’s ever happened” to her.
“He’s still better than anyone I’ve ever been with. Facts,” she wrote in another response, before adding, “He has treated me better than any human being on this planet.”

She also told her fans that she’s the “happiest” she’s ever been.
“If you can’t accept me at my happiest then don’t be in [my] life at all,” she hit back.
The pair have worked together on several songs since 2015, including “Same Old Love” and “Single Soon,” even though it’s been made abundantly clear that she wasn’t, in fact, single despite claiming she was on numerous occasions.
Following Gomez’s confirmation of their romance, Blanco dropped a flirty comment on one of her new Instagram carousels.
“😍,” he wrote.
Gomez revealed that she’s been dating the artist for six months, which suggests that they were involved when he attended her 31st birthday bash in July.
In one photo taken from the party, Gomez can be seen wrapping her arm around Blanco’s waist from the front as she poses next to Paris Hilton — a striking image in hindsight.
