Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s bluest flame is warming hearts.

Nearly seven weeks after the pair tied the knot in a star-studded Santa Barbara, Calif., wedding, they proved they’re loving each other like a love song by sharing a tasty date night.

In a picture shared to his Instagram Story Nov. 11, Benny featured a plate full of oysters and shrimp on ice, paired with the dipping sauces and other accoutrements. Out of the corner on the snap, Selena’s hand is seen reaching toward the delicious feast and to grab a lemon slice.

Alongside the pic, Benny simply wrote, “Date night.”

And while he kept their dinner date simple, the music producer—who received his and Selena’s first joint Grammy nomination Nov. 7 for their track “Bluest Flame”—detailed last year how he and his wife go about planning their nights out.

"I go all out for every date. We go all out for each other," Benny told People in November 2024 for their Sexiest Man Alive issue. "One time Sel was like, 'Oh, I want to take you on a date.' We drove somewhere, and she had rented out a whole botanical garden for me."

The 36-year-old noted they also like to keep it low key, adding, "She also likes something so simple. For Valentine's Day, I got her Taco Bell, I made her movie-theater nachos, I found her favorite pickles from Texas and I deep-fried them for her. Then [I had] all her candies and Hot Cheetos."

Regardless of how their date nights look, though, Benny gushed about his most cherished moment of each day with his wife.

"I'm a real morning person," he shared. "It's my favorite time to spend with Sel, because we both wake up really early. It's like our moment before the rest of the world wakes up."
