To the delight of her hordes of admirers, singer and actress Selena Gomezan announced on social media on Wednesday that she was engaged to boyfriend Benny Blanco.
Now is the start of forever. Gomez, 32, captioned four photos, one of which showed the couple cuddling and another of her sporting a large engagement ring. In December 2023, the pair made their romance public.
With 432 million Instagram followers, Gomez is one of the most well-known users on the platform. The post has already received 8.3 million likes and comments from a number of famous friends, including Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Blanco, a 36-year-old music producer, said, “Hey wait… that’s my wife.”
Following the conclusion of her historic Eras tour, Taylor Swift said, “Yes, I will be the flower girl.”
In a November interview, Gomez stated that she is unable to have her own children because of health issues. She did not elaborate, but she has endured treatment for lupus and a kidney transplant.
Gomez told Vanity Fair, “I haven’t ever said this, but I’m afraid I can’t have my own children.” I have numerous health conditions that could endanger both my life and the lives of the unborn child. I had to grieve for a time about that.
She has received chemotherapy for her lupus and needed a kidney transplant in 2017, but she did not elaborate on the issues that would make it unsafe for her to conceive her own children.
An autoimmune condition is lupus. According to the Mayo Clinic, the immune system assaults the body and results in a number of issues, including organ damage.
People with lupus can have successful pregnancies, but there is a higher chance of complications, according to the Lupus Foundation of America. Kidney issues, blood clots, high blood pressure, which can result in preeclampsia, and an elevated risk of stillbirth are some of these consequences.
