Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco Toast to First Christmas as Married Couple

by

There’s only love in Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s festive building. 

With Christmas just around the corner, I’m so excited to see how ‘I Said I Love You First’ – the adorable couple who got married back in September – are celebrating their first holiday season as husband and wife! They recently shared a peek at their plans, and it’s just the sweetest thing.

Selena, 33, posted a cute video on Instagram on December 4th showing her and her husband, Benny, 37, decorating their Christmas tree. They didn’t stick to a particular color scheme, and their tree featured a fun mix of ornaments – from turquoise decorations and pink baubles to even a little jar of pickles!

She fittingly captioned the milestone, “Our first Christmas as a married couple.”

This update follows a recent post celebrating Selena and her partner’s first Thanksgiving together. She shared a cozy picture of them by the fireplace in November, and then showed off their beautiful outdoor decorations. They set up two long wooden tables in the backyard with flowers and warm-toned candles, continuing the inviting atmosphere up the stairs.

The founder of Rare Beauty shared a Thanksgiving message on Instagram, expressing gratitude to everyone. She simply wrote, ‘Happy Thanksgiving!’

The couple has been very happy since their wedding in California. Benny, who originally met Selena while working on her 2015 album, Revival, recently shared some of his favorite moments from the wedding on Instagram, including a special dance they shared at the reception.

Benny and Selena’s connection was clear, and Benny expressed his commitment in a heartfelt caption, promising to love her forever. Selena is enjoying their relationship, despite feeling a little nervous on their wedding day.

The singer shared that she cried after getting married, overwhelmed by the thought that everything could suddenly end. Instead of enjoying the moment and celebrating her accomplishment, she found herself worrying about the future and how to prevent things from falling apart. She spoke about this experience at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women conference in October.

She explained that she sometimes gets so caught up in her own feelings that she struggles to appreciate good things happening around her. She described this as her main internal struggle, especially when something positive occurs.

Even though things were difficult, she and Benny are now celebrating the special moments in their relationship. Here’s a deeper look at their love story…

I was so happy to hear that Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco started dating! Apparently, it all began around Selena’s birthday back in July 2023 – Benny actually shared that on the Howard Stern Show a few months ago in May 2024.

Rumors about their relationship started circulating in late 2023, but Selena confirmed they were dating in December. She publicly shared her feelings on a fan’s Instagram post, calling Benny “my absolute everything.”

Honestly, I can’t even explain it. He just… completely changed my life. I know it sounds crazy, but he’s genuinely the best thing that’s ever happened to me. And I’ve dated other people, of course, but nobody, nobody compares. He’s just… better. Always.

Selena Gomez, who founded Rare Beauty, posted a photo on her Instagram Story showing her resting her head on what appeared to be her boyfriend, Benny Blanco’s, chest.

Selena shared the photo on her Instagram Stories, and fans noticed she was wearing a ring shaped like the letter “B” and covered in jewels.

…including a pic of the two kissing. 

In December 2023, Selena posted photos online showing her spending time with Benny and their friends in New York City.

Selena posted some recent photos of her and her partner at what looked like an art show, just two days after Christmas in 2023.

Selena posted this pic of herself and Benny one day before New Year’s Eve 2023.

The pair attended the Los Angeles Lakers’ home game against the Miami Heat in January 2024.

Selena shared a tribute to her boyfriend on his 36th birthday in March 2024.

Selena shared a heartfelt birthday message on Instagram, writing, “Happy birthday!” She went on to praise Benny Blanco, saying she’s amazed by his strength, positive attitude, incredible talent, and wonderful sense of humor, and that his kind heart means the world to her. She finished by saying, “I love you!”

Selena included this kissing pic in her birthday tribute to Benny.

…and these couple’s pics as well.

In April 2024, Selena celebrated the launch of Benny’s cookbook, Open Wide, sharing photos of them with a cake designed like the book and writing, “So proud.”

Selena shared this pic of the two on Independence Day 2024.

Right before celebrating their one-year anniversary in July 2024, the couple participated in a popular TikTok trend where they answered “Who’s Most Likely To…” questions. When asked who said “I love you” first, the answer was Selena.

Selena and Benny cuddled up in cute photos in July 2024 following her 32nd birthday.

The actress shared a series of summer photos with a heartfelt message, thanking someone for being a part of her life both today and always.

Selena shared a silly pic of the two enjoying a bite.

They’re just loving each other like a love song, baby.

The couple enjoyed a date night at the 2025 Golden Globes.

Benny and Selena made their first joint red carpet appearance at the 2025 Emmys.

The wedding took place in Santa Barbara, California, on September 27, 2025, and was attended by celebrities like Taylor Swift, Martin Short, Steve Martin, and Paul Rudd.
