Los Angeles: Hollywood actress-singer Selena Gomez and her music producer fiance Benny Blanco are in no hurry to walk down the aisle. The newly engaged couple recently discussed wedding plans, their upcoming collaborative album āI Said I Love You Firstā, reports āPeopleā magazine. The two spoke in an interview with Rolling Stone.
According to Blanco, 37, Selena has several ideas regarding her dream wedding when the time is right. He said, āI think every day sheās planned a new wedding in her head. Weāre very much ātake it one day at a timeā-type of people. Weāre still not over this moment. Literally, while you were talking, she was sitting there staring at her ringā.
The actress said, āAlso, I genuinely feel like this is such a special time that we get to apply it to this album and really just pour our heart into it, and completely translate what we feel and bring it to the world. Thatās my main focus right now, at leastā.
As per āPeopleā, in December 2024, Selena announced that Blanco popped the question with an oval-shaped ring featuring a large marquise diamond, estimated to be six carats. Blanco asked for Selenaās hand in marriage with a romantic picnic that included Taco Bell. When asked if adding Taco Bell to the proposal felt ordinary, Blanco explained that he and the actress are ājust living our life every dayā.
āThereās not this whole elaborate thing. I think weāre very lucky to be surrounded by such great people, and weāve still just been enjoying so muchā, he told Rolling Stone. āIt feels like we got engaged yesterday, but also feels like we got engaged 20 years ago. Iāve known her since she was 18, and so itās like we got all that stuff out of the way. By the time weāre dating, itās like, whoa. My biggest regret is that we didnāt get to do this earlier, like we waited this long to be together. But I know it was perfect and it was rightā.
