Gomez and Blanco started dating in June 2023 after they teamed up for the 2019 single “I Can’t Get Enough” with Tainy and J Balvin.

In August 2023, Gomez then released the Blanco-produced single “Single Soon,” before confirming their relationship that December when she liked fan account posts on Instagram of the pair, even commenting, “He is my absolute everything in my heart,” on one.

The pair made their red carpet debut at the 2024 Emmys in January, before Gomez spoke to Apple Music’s Zane Lowe about their relationship the following month.

“Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you,” she said.

“I think it’s really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in.

But I’d have to say overall it’s the safest that I feel and it’s been really lovely and I’ve only grown through it, so it’s awesome.”

In May, Blanco teased that he could see marriage in the future when asked about Gomez during an interview on The Howard Stern Show.

“When I look at her … I’m always just like, I don’t know a world where it could be better than this,” he said at the time.
