Selena Gomez shares reason for going public with Benny Blanco

Selena Gomez has finally revealed why she went public with her relationship with Benny Blanco despite previously keeping her love life private.

The singer and actress described her feelings for the music producer in a candid interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

When asked why she has allowed the world in on their relationship, Selena answered, “I guess this is the safest I’ve ever felt in one, and I see a future with this person.”

“When you put a little bit out there, people are not as hungry to hunt you down. Like, if they hear something, they’re going to, but if you’re like, ‘I did it,’ they’re like, “Oh, well, there’s you, just going to Sushi Park,’” explained the Emilia Pérez actress.

It’s prominent to mention that the Calm Down hitmaker began dating Benny in July 2023 and went public with her romance in December of that year.

In December 2024, Selena announced her engagement to Benny on Instagram, showing off her gorgeous engagement ring.
