Selena Gomez, at the prime age of 31, has built a life where solitude is not only accepted but embraced. In an intimate conversation with Time magazine, she divulged her comfort in living alone for the past five years. "Many fear the thought of being single," Selena shared, "but once I accepted it, I strategized my future, including plans to adopt by the age of 35 if love doesn't find me."
Despite preparing herself for a lone journey ahead, fate had a different plan for Selena.
Prior to her rendezvous with Benny Blanco, Selena had settled into the idea of being single. Yet, life surprised her when Benny, a consistent collaborator since 2015, transitioned from a friend to more. In December 2023, Selena confirmed their six-month secret romance, leaving fans in awe.
"It happens when you least expect it," Selena told Time, recounting her initial platonic view of Benny. The relationship grew organically, with Benny even expressing visions of marriage and starting a family with her.
Despite his heart being in the right place, Benny isn't rushing to kneel just yet. In an honest admission to Stern, he mentioned the need to "get his act together" before taking such a step.
Gomez, unfazed by Benny's timeline or candid nature, appreciates his inability to lie. "He can't lie to save his life," she chuckled during the interview, implying her trust in his honesty. After years of spotlight scrutiny and managing public relationships, Selena has honed the art of discretion and self-reliance, inspiring many to follow her bold stance on independence and future motherhood.
