Selena Gomez gives rare insight into her romance with 'lovely' Benny Blanco
Selena Gomez said she's never felt safer as she got candid about her "really lovely" relationship with boyfriend Benny Blanco.
The loved-up pair confirmed their relationship last December, but were first linked after collaborating on the song I Can't Get Enough back in 2019. Selena often keeps her romance on the down low, but recently gave fans a rare insight into the couple's life.
She was promoting her new single Love On as she spoke to Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe for New Music Daily on Thursday. The 31-year-old briefly discussed her partnership with Blanco, saying that "overall it's the safest that I feel and it's been really lovely".

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."

She also spoke about collaboration with other artists, admitting she doesn't "feel very safe in a lot of rooms." Selena added: "But I find that when I work with new people, it's actually really fun to connect on what they're walking through in life."
"And it's like, oh, working with some great songwriters who know friends of friends and things like that. But I think it's also important that I stay with my core group because they're the people that can crack the code with me the best.
"They're the ones that can really help me explain what I want to say," she concluded. It comes after Selena and Benny put on a very public display of affection in a steamy upload on social media. She shared a carousel of cute snaps of her and her boyfriend posed in several romantic embraces. She captioned the Instagram post: "My bes fwend."
To which Benny commented in response: "Das my bes fwend." In the first picture, the couple put on a homely display, with the Emmy-nominated actress embracing her musician boyfriend as he prepared a platter of meatballs.

The final photo of the post, which has already garnered over 8million likes, is of the couple relaxing with their friends including The Bear actor Matty Matheson.
Last December, Selena confirmed the romance when she liked an Instagram post from a fan account that reported the relationship. She later shared a black-and-white shot of her lying on Benny’s chest. The couple went red-carpet official mere weeks after - making their first big appearance together at the Primetime Emmy Awards.
Selena has enjoyed a string of high-profile relationships in the past, famously dating Justin Bieber, The Weeknd, Zedd, Nick Jonas, and Taylor Lautner. Benny is thought to previously have been romantically involved with model Elsie Hewitt.
