Benny fueled the speculation a few days ago when he tweeted a photo of a note written by his ‘girlfriend’ with a woman sleeping behind it who resembled Gomez. Back in 2018, the two collaborated on a song called ‘I Can’t Get Enough’ with J Balvin, and it appears that they have remained in touch ever since. Gomez has previously been linked to Nick Jonas, Justin Bieber, Zedd, and The Weeknd. Selena is ‘casually dating and doing well,’ according to a source who told Entertainment Tonight in late November. “As far as she’s concerned, she’s doing her own thing and doesn’t feel any obligation to be in a relationship,” they shared. She’s just focused on what’s best for her right now and has been extremely aware of her own boundaries.”Her friends and family are rooting for her and simply want her to be happy.” Many netizens appeared to be dissatisfied with Gomez after she acknowledged her romance with Benny Blanco. According to one user, this isn’t her; she was hacked. Another person said, “Now I think she’s just toying with us & having fun.” While Selena Gomez has reacted to several critical remarks regarding her relationship on the internet, Benny Blanco has chosen to remain silent about the matter thus far.
