In a harmonious blend of personal and professional milestones, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have announced their engagement alongside the upcoming release of their joint album, “I Said I Love You First.” The couple, who began their relationship in December 2023, have seamlessly intertwined their romantic journey with their musical collaboration.
The album, set to release on March 21, 2025, features the lead single “Scared of Loving You,” which is already available to fans. Gomez and Blanco celebrated this announcement with an intimate listening party in London, where Gomez captivated attendees in a striking red ensemble. Styled by Erin Walsh, she donned a bright red Milkwhite faux fur coat over a matching button-up dress, complemented by red heels and lipstick from her Rare Beauty line. This vibrant appearance has been widely praised, with many noting her radiant post-engagement glow.
In addition to their professional endeavors, the couple has made significant personal investments, recently purchasing a $35 million Spanish-style mansion in Beverly Hills. This luxurious estate boasts seven bedrooms, twelve bathrooms, a pool, spa, home theater, and a wood-paneled library. Formerly owned by director Todd Phillips, the property blends historic charm with modern amenities, providing a serene retreat for the couple.
Their engagement has also drawn attention, particularly the unique design of Gomez’s ring. Blanco proposed with an 8-carat marquise-shaped diamond ring, a subtle nod to Gomez’s 2015 song “Good For You.” The ring underwent multiple redesigns to align with Gomez’s vision, with the couple repurposing the original baguette diamonds into earrings. Blanco’s thoughtful proposal included a Taco Bell picnic, followed by a celebration with close friends and family.
As Gomez and Blanco prepare for the release of “I Said I Love You First,” fans eagerly anticipate the fusion of their artistic talents and shared experiences. This album not only marks a significant professional achievement but also celebrates the couple’s deep personal connection.
