Selena Gomez Goes to Bat for Probably-Boyfriend Benny Blanco

Selena Gomez Goes to Bat for ProbablyBoyfriend Benny Blanco
The rumored couple are Instagram official…ish.

In the era of social media, going “Instagram official”, the first time a couple posts a photo together on the grid, is an important milestone. Selena Gomez, however, has given us a new spin on the term with a series of comments on the platform referring to and defending rumored beau Benny Blanco.

While the singer and producer have not officially confirmed their relationship status, via grid post, public statement, or other means, Gomez did pop onto various posts on Instagram this week, including commenting “facts.” on a Thursday post from the Popfactions account about her relationship status.

She didn’t stop there, continuing in a comment spree that led some to speculate that her Instagram account had been hacked.

“He is my absolute everything in my heart,” she wrote in one. “He has treated me better than any human being on this planet,” she said in another. Another comment reply purportedly written by Gomez seems to side-eye her exes which include Justin Bieber, Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye, Zedd and Nick Jonas. “He’s still better than anyone I’ve ever been with. Facts.”

Gomez posted a black-and-white shot to her Instagram Stories of herself cuddled up to the chest of a man that closely resembles Blanco’s pectoral zone. In the next slide of her story, she simply wrote, “Just a reminder of how much I appreciate and love each and everyone of you.”

In another Story photo, Gomez shared a photo of her left hand featuring a ring emblazoned with a jewel-encrusted letter B. You know what starts with B? More than one of Benny Blanco’s names. 

Blanco and Gomez have also worked together on several tracks since 2015, including her recent release “Single Soon,” which she has insisted publicly is not about her former relationship with The Weeknd. In the past, she has been anything but coy about her relationship status: In June, she shared a video of herself watching a recreational soccer game and shouting in the players' direction, “I’m single! I’m just a little high-maintenance! But I’ll love you soooooo much!”

Representatives for Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
