Selena Gomez shares her relationship musts amid Benny Blanco romance: I ‘want it to be healthy’
Selena Gomez has revealed exactly what Benny Blanco is bringing to the table in their relationship.
The singer and actress, 31, opened up about her relationship musts in an interview with Vogue México y Latinoamérica published Thursday — before she confirmed earlier this month that she has been seeing the music producer for six months.
She noted that her top priority in a relationship is keeping her self-respect as well as providing an open space for feelings to be discussed.
“It’s very hard to find someone who can listen to you and care about you, but I know when it happens it will be great and you will want it to be healthy,” she stated in the interview, which was translated from Spanish to English via Google.
She didn’t mention Blanco, but the article noted she confirmed their romance as it was being written. The pair have known each other since at least 2019, when they collaborated with J. Balvin and Tainy on the song, “I Can’t Get Enough.”
They stayed close over the years, with Blanco, 35, attending the Rare Beauty founder’s birthday this past July. However, their relationship was not confirmed until Dec. 7 when Gomez took to social media to express her graтιтude for having him in her life.
While replying to fan comments, she called Blanco her “absolute everything” and the “best thing that’s ever happened” to her. She also shaded her exes Justin Bieber and The Weeknd by describing him as “better than anyone [she’s] ever been with.”
After her string of social media confessions — which included the news that her next album will be released in two months — Gomez took to her Instagram Story to post a snap of herself cuddling Blanco and to show off her crystal “B” ring, which she has done several times since.
Last week, she debuted a pH๏τo of them pᴀssionately kissing on the lips. Blanco hasn’t said much about their relationship, but he did leave a flirty comment under one of Gomez’s recent Instagram carousels.
Before he sparked a romance with the “Only Murders in the Building” star, he was linked to actress Elsie Hewitt.
