Following both the release of her song Single Soon and pointing out several times that she was single, singer and actress Selena Gomez has confirmed that she is in a relationship with Benny Blanco.

The Rare Beauty founder, who is said to be worth around $800 million, commented, “He is my absolute everything in my heart,” in response to an Instagram post confirming her relationship with Blanco, whose real name is Benjamin Joseph Levin.

Gomez made clear that Benny is “the best thing that ever happened to me” and that he is “better than anyone I’ve ever been with.” The singer later shared a photo on her Instagram story of her resting her head on what appears to be Benny’s chest.

After being questioned about their romance, Selena responded, “This is my happiest... But I will never allow your words to guide my life. Ever. I’m done. If you can’t accept me at my happiest, then don’t be in [m]y life at all.”

Although not much is known about their relationship, it is estimated that Selena stopped being single in October, when she was photographed with Benny attending the Rare Impact Fund charity event in Los Angeles.

According to People magazine, despite recently going public with their relationship, the two have known each other for a few years, having previously worked on the 2019 single I Can’t Get Enough, with Benjamin listed as a producer on the track.

After co-producing and co-writing several hit singles in the late 2000s, Blanco has made a name for himself in the music industry. In addition to his work as a producer, Benny is a music artist, having released his debut single Eastside alongside Halsey and Khalid in 2018.

Blanco has worked with some of the biggest artists over the years, including Ed Sheeran, Katy Perry, Kesha, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Kanye West, The Weeknd and Justin Bieber.
