The “Love On” singer celebrated her birthday on Monday, July 22
Selena Gomez is feeling the love on her birthday.
The “I Can’t Get Enough” singer turned 32 on Monday, July 22. And amid her celebrations on social media, Gomez made sure to share her feelings about boyfriend Benny Blanco.
“Love of my life,” Gomez wrote on her Instagram Story across a photo of the 36-year-old record producer and songwriter, snapped as he hugged and kissed Gomez on the forehead.
In the photo, Gomez beamed with a smile and wrapped her arms around Blanco’s waist. Both were dressed casually, he in a blue floral top and patterned pants and she in an all-black ensemble.
Gomez also reposted her boyfriend’s birthday message on her Instagram Story.
His message came alongside a picture of him and his beau cuddling while he was dressed in a white teddy bear costume. The photo appeared to be a behind-the-scenes snap from when they filmed the music video for their 2019 collab “I Can’t Get Enough,” before they were an item
Wrote Blanco: “i used to play a teddy bear in ur music video and now i get to b urs in real life… happy bday bb ! i love u !”
Appreciating her man for the post, the actress wrote in the comment section, “I love you 🧸.”
Gomez and Blanco first publicly confirmed their relationship in December 2023, with Gomez writing on social media at the time that the couple had already been together for six months before the official reveal.
The two stars have expressed plenty of PDA on social media since, and been spotted out together at the Golden Globes, Primetime Emmys and even sitting courtside at an April basketball game between the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers in New York City.
“I don’t know a world where it could be better than this,” Blanco said during a May 14 appearance on The Howard Stern Show, “People always said this to me, when you know you meet your best friend, she truly is my best friend.”
Meanwhile elsewhere on Monday, Gomez expressed her gratitude for all of her birthday messages.
“Thank you so much for your birthday wishes!!” the Only Murders in the Building star wrote on Instagram, captioning a carousel of photos including one of her as she posed between two palm trees and balloon letters that spelled out “Happy Birthday Selena.”
“I’m very grateful and always thankful🥰 ,” Gomez added.
