Selena Gomez has the internet buzzing once again, and this time it’s not about her music or acting. The starlet made waves at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, sparking rumors that she might be engaged to music producer Benny Blanco. While the couple hasn’t confirmed anything, Selena’s choice of jewellery and the couple’s PDA at the event have certainly fueled speculation.
Gomez, 31, turned heads at the Emmys on Sunday evening, stepping out in a show-stopping black Ralph Lauren gown. But what really grabbed attention wasn’t just her stunning outfit—it was the sparkling diamonds on her left hand. Selena wore several Tiffany & Co. pieces, but it was a platinum band covered in marquise diamonds on her ring finger that had everyone talking. Naturally, fans quickly jumped to conclusions, speculating that the “Only Murders in the Building” star might be engaged.
The bling, displayed so prominently on that finger, instantly got tongues wagging about the possibility of an engagement to her boyfriend, Benny Blanco. The music producer and Selena have been spotted together frequently over the past year, but they’ve kept their relationship relatively private. So, seeing them getting cozy during the Emmys broadcast, with plenty of affectionate moments captured on camera, has only added fuel to the fire.
But before fans get ahead of themselves, it’s important to take a step back. According to E! News, the ring in question was just one of many Tiffany & Co. accessories that Selena chose to wear for the night. It was simply a part of her glamorous red-carpet look for the evening, where she was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in Only Murders in the Building.
Still, it’s hard to blame fans for getting excited. This isn’t the first time that engagement rumors have swirled around the former Disney Channel star. Just a month ago, Selena posted a photo of herself with Benny on Instagram, conspicuously covering her left hand with an emoji. The cryptic move led to immediate speculation about whether or not the couple was hiding something. Adding to the intrigue, shortly after that, Selena followed a well-known wedding planner on TikTok, which sent fans into an online frenzy.
And if that wasn’t enough, the “Calm Down” singer was recently spotted out and about in Los Angeles, wearing a gold band on her ring finger. All these subtle hints have been enough to keep the rumor mill churning, even though neither Selena nor Benny have publicly addressed the engagement rumors.
So, is Benny Blanco getting down on one knee anytime soon? Well, that remains to be seen. While Selena’s recent jewellery choices and her actions on social media certainly suggest that an engagement could be in the cards, there’s still no concrete confirmation. One thing is clear, though: the rumors are heating up, and fans are eagerly awaiting any news from the couple.
