Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are at the center of engagement rumors after eagle-eyed fans noticed she hid her ring finger in her latest Instagram post.
Speculation that the couple, who began quietly dating in mid-2023, are planning to tie the knot hit an all-time high following their decision to share a mirror selfie, in which their left hand was strategically covered by a pink heart emoji.
In the snap, which she posted to her Instagram Story on Thursday, the 32-year-old Only Murders In The Building actress looked chic in a champagne-coloured dress.
“Party night,” she captioned the photo, which shows her 36-year-old man in the background.
The placement of her emoji immediately caught the attention of fans, who were quick to take to X (formerly Twitter) to share their theories that the Rare Beauty founder popped the question.
Selena Gomez and her boyfriend, Benny Blanco, are at the center of engagement rumors after eagle-eyed fans noticed she hid her ring finger in her latest post.
‘Selena Gomez announces she’s engaged by intentionally trying not to announce she’s engaged,’ one X user stated.
Another wrote: ‘I think Selena Gomez just got engaged but why is she covering her left hand in her latest IG story?’
“She’s definitely engaged (sob emoji),” a third predicted.
The post comes after gossip site DeuxMoi shared a ‘tip’ that the Grammy nominee ‘got engaged over the weekend’ while ‘surrounded by friends at their usual beach house hangout’ earlier this month.
In May, Gomez revealed she planned to adopt a child if she didn’t find the right partner before she turned 35.
“I was alone for five years and I really got used to it,” Selena said at the Time 100 Most Influential Companies event.
‘A lot of people are afraid of being alone and I probably tortured myself in my head for about two years being alone, and then I kind of accepted it.
“Then I came up with my plan: to adopt at 35 if I hadn’t met anyone,” she said.
However, last year she met Blanco, whom she described as the love of her life last month.

Howard then asked Benny when he would ask the Wizards of Waverly Place star to marry him.
“When I look at it, I always say, ‘I don’t know a world that could be better than this,'” he gushed.
Howard later said he predicted they would get married in the future, and Benny replied, “You and me, too.”
