Benny Blanco already has a wife in his mind. The producer keeps his dating life lowkey, but with this Disney actress he went all out with his love and afftection.
Benny Blanco is a star-producer, making songs for A-Listers like Justin Bieber, Juice WRLD, The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande. But beyond being in the studio, he’s a romantic at heart. In an interview with People, he hinted that he’s super content about his love life. “I’m so happy,” he told the site. “I met my best friend. I have a best friend that I also get to kiss. I have a true best friend that I get to do everything in the world with, and every day is the best day of my life. I sound like a loser, but it’s amazing!”
Who is Benny Blanco dating?
Benny Blanco just proposed to Selena Gomez, who he has dated since July 2023. He’s been pretty private about his relationships before her, but here’s what he’s said about his former girlfriends.
Selena Gomez (2023 – present)
On December 7, 2023, Selena Gomez confirmed her relationship with the producer. Under one post from PopFaction’s post that read, “Selena Gomez Seemingly Confirms That She Is in a Relationship,” Gomez simply commented “Facts.” She wrote in the comment: “He is my absolute everything in my heart,” then replied to one fan: “then why has he been the best thing that’s ever happened to me. The end.” She then shared a selfie of the two of them to her own Instagram Story as well as a ring in the shape of a B.
As for how they fell in love, Benny revealed that it was a slowburn. The two have collaborated on songs in the past, but the “Single Soon” producer was oblivious in what was going on in the air. “I was the last one to know,” he recalled. “It’s crazy how your partner could just be sitting there the whole time, right in front of your eyes, and you don’t even notice, and then you have that Clueless moment where you’re like, ‘Wait, I’m in love.’”
Gomez and Blanco already have longterm plans together—hinting that a family could be their future. “That’s my next goal, to check the box,” the hitmaker said of becoming a father to Howard Stern. “It’s always a topic of conversation to me every day.” As for proposing, Blanco said of Gomez, “I take everything a day at a time and I just know that when I look at her, I just say, ‘I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.’ That’s what I always say to her.”
And he did just that! Selena Gomez revealed that he proposed with a gorgeous diamond ring during a Taco Bell picnic. “forever begins now..,” she captioned the post.
Elsie Hewitt (2019 – 2020)
Benny Blanco’s only other public relationship was with actress Elsie Hewitt. The two met on the set of his and Juice WRLD’s 2019 music video for “Graduation.” She seemingly confirmed the relationship when she made a Twitter post dedicated to him. “i just saw its #NationalBoyfriendDay i wish u were here instead of being on the titanic but thank u for existing and i don’t know what i’d do without u,” she wrote. He replied, “we wish u were single.”
