Selena Gomez Is Wrapping Up 2023 in Boyfriend Benny Blanco's Arms

2023 was seemingly a good year for Selena Gomez. She started off strong with a Golden Globe nomination and continued upon that momentum by releasing new music and hard-launching a new relationship. 

Just last month, Selena revealed that she's dating music producer Benny Blanco. Since then, she hasn't been shy about flaunting their affection for one another on Instagram, and yesterday, she closed out the year with one final PDA-filled photo of the pair. In the snap, which appeared to be taken at the beach, the singer smiled at the camera as Blanco embraced her from behind while kissing her neck. 

Selena kept warm in an oversized black sweater and sported windswept waves and glowing skin, while Benny bundled up in a floral fleece hoodie. 

Despite recently going public with their relationship, Selena and Benny have already been seeing each other for six months. According to a source at Entertainment Tonight, Selena "finally felt comfortable enough" in their connection to address the speculation about them dating.

"She feels so safe and secure with him, so she felt like it was a good time to share how happy she is with her fans," the insider shared. "Benny is a great communicator, is honest and open with Selena, and listens to her. He's respectful, isn't a player, and not in it for the attention or fame. He doesn't care about any of that and Selena sees that and really trusts him."
