Benny Blanco is loving being engaged like a love song, baby.

After the music producer proposed to Selena Gomez after one year of dating with a whopping $225,000 ring, he couldn't help but gush over the milestone.

"Hey wait," Benny teased under the Only Murders in the Building star's Dec. 11 Instagram announcement. "That's my wife."

Indeed, she soon will be. After all, the 36-year-old popped the question with a marquise-cut diamond ring set on a gold pavé band, which VP of Merchandising at Jared Jewelers Ann Grimmett said was "about six carats." 

And Benny wasn't the only celeb to comment under the post, in which Selena shared a snap of the romantic picnic he planned for the special moment. In fact, the "Who Says" singer's close friend Taylor Swift shared her excitement, playfully beginning their wedding planning. She wrote, "Yes, I will be the flower girl."

Jennifer Aniston celebrated the milestone, adding, "HONEY! Congratulations sweet mama."

And Nina Dobrev—who got engaged to Shaun White in October after five years of dating—supported her fellow new fiancée, writing, "Congratulations!!!!! So happy for you both!!!!"

Meanwhile, Chef Gordon Ramsey congratulated the couple while reflecting on the magic behind Selena and Benny's romance. He cheekily commented, "It must be the cooking."

There may be some truth to that. Brooklyn Peltz Beckham previously revealed that he and his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham often had date nights in the kitchen with the couple.

"I love them both," Brooklyn explained on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen After Show last month. "They're both so amazing. We've gone on a few double dates with them. Me and Benny cook and Selena and Nicola just sit and wait."

He and Benny are sure to curate their menu for their loves. The eldest son of David Beckham and Victoria Beckham explained that it’s decided based on “whatever they’re feeling.”

It’s no surprise that Selena, 32, and Benny prioritize intimate nights with their pals. After all, with a relationship in the spotlight comes a lot of prying eyes. However, they’re tuning out the noise when it comes to opinions about their relationship.

"We always make sure we're protecting what we have, but there's no rules," Selena told Vanity Fair in September. "I want him to always be himself. I always want to be myself."

For the actress, who went public with her and Benny's relationship in December 2023, their romance has been exactly what she's been looking for.

"I've never been loved this way," she explained. "He's just been a light. A complete light in my life. He's my best friend. I love telling him everything."
