Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s engagement has created quite the buzz online, marking an exciting new chapter in both their lives. On December 11, Selena Gomez, 32, announced the happy news with a series of heartfelt pictures showcasing her engagement ring and her fiancé. Captioned “Forever begins now,” the post radiated joy and quickly attracted a wave of congratulations from fans and celebrity friends alike.
Celebrity Reactions to the Engagement
Selena’s announcement received an outpouring of love from her industry peers:
Taylor Swift, a longtime friend, shared her excitement with an enthusiastic comment.
Cardi B, Nina Dobrev, Lily Collins, Jennifer Aniston, and even chef Gordon Ramsay added their congratulations to the mix.
However, what caught fans off-guard was a like from Hailey Bieber, Justin Bieber’s wife, on the announcement post. This seemingly cordial gesture stood out because of the often-speculated feud between Selena and Hailey over their shared history with Justin. Although Hailey later unliked the post, it sparked a conversation online.
Social Media Reactions
The internet, ever-attentive, quickly took note of Hailey’s gesture:
Some users praised the mature interaction, with comments like, “These girls really need to be left alone.”
Others called for an end to the endless speculation, saying, “People wanting them to beef is lowkey getting old. They have both happily moved on.”
Still, the gesture was polarizing, as some found it unnecessary to overanalyze, writing, “I find it weird that people literally search this up. Like, it’s been YEARS.”
Selena Gomez’s Thriving Career
Selena Gomez is living her best life right now, balancing her personal and professional accomplishments:
She recently earned two Golden Globe nominations for her roles in Emilia Pérez and Only Murders in the Building.
She is gearing up to begin filming the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building, alongside co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.
The Bieber Family Update
Meanwhile, Hailey Bieber and Justin Bieber have also had a milestone year. In August, the couple welcomed their first child, Jack Blue Bieber. At the end of November, Hailey shared sweet family pictures, calling it the “best month of the year” as she spent time with Justin and their baby boy. The post also gave fans glimpses of her Rhode beauty brand, stylish outfits, and moments of family bliss.
Conclusion
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s engagement is a testament to love and fresh beginnings, with Selena thriving in both her career and personal life. The subtle nod from Hailey Bieber, though short-lived, suggests a sense of maturity between the two women, leaving fans hopeful that narratives of rivalry can finally be put to rest. Meanwhile, both Selena and Hailey seem to be embracing happiness in their respective lives, setting a positive example of moving forward.
