In a delightful twist, Selena Gomez has taken to social media to announce her engagement to songwriter Benny Blanco, sending ripples of joy throughout her fanbase and celebrity circles.

In an Instagram post that showcased an exquisite engagement ring, Gomez captured the moment with the words, "forever begins now." The engagement follows their public relationship confirmation last year, much to the delight of fans. Among those congratulating the couple was pop icon Taylor Swift, who playfully chimed in with, "Yes I will be the flower girl."

This heartwarming sentiment was echoed by several celebrities including Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston, Suki Waterhouse, and Lil Nas X, all offering their best wishes. With a massive following of 423 million on Instagram, Gomez shared a video in her Stories revealing her ring to loved ones, capturing their ecstatic reactions, stating, "Yes to this."

Blanco and Gomez have previously collaborated on two hit songs, "I Can't Get Enough" and "Single Soon."

He noted, "Every day when I wake up, I walk by the mirror and ask myself, 'How did I get here?'"

Gomez, who has enjoyed a storied career as both an actress and a singer, has transitioned to a multi-faceted career, achieving billionaire status with her Rare Beauty cosmetic line. This year proved to be fruitful as she received two Golden Globe nominations—one for Best Supporting Actress and another for Best Actress in a TV Series, solidifying her impressive track record in the entertainment industry.
