Months since she uttered “yes” to Benny Blanco’s marriage proposal, Selena Gomez was at the eye of swirling cheating rumors. The internet was flooded with unsubstantiated reports that Benny might have cheated on the singer-actress. Yet, Selena seemed to diplomatically shut up the gossip by sharing a warm Instagram Story that included her fiancé.
Benny Blanco is, in the photo, sitting on the floor, cradling his nephew with one arm and their family pet dog with the other. The candid shot emanated warmth and love, and while Selena did not opt to include a caption, the photo said enough. Fans interpreted it as an understated yet evident display of support for her fiancé.
Cheating Rumors Involving Selena’s Former Friend
The rumors began with allegations that Benny had been involved with Selena’s long-time friend and ex-aide, Theresa Marie Mingus. The rumor mill was further fueled when Selena was observed to have removed Theresa from her Instagram follow list. They had last been spotted together in early March. An old TikTok clip purporting to have Benny eating out with Theresa, and unsubstantiated reports of visits to his house while Selena was away, fueled even more gossip.
More drama followed when a TikTok user alleged Benny had subscribed to Theresa’s OnlyFans page once more without concrete evidence. Witnessers also commented on how suspicious it seemed that Theresa had previously written about Benny being People’s “Sexiest Man Alive.”
Selena and Benny Remain Focused on Love and Music
Despite the commotion, Selena and Benny appear intent on one another and their professions. In March, they dropped their first joint album I Said I Love You First, highlighting their artistic synergy.
